Oh no, what have I done...

[ChargerX3]

Did you tell that to the girl at target?

[Chris GTO TT]

Uh no wasn't worth being an ass to her face

[ChargerX3]

Yea good idea. Otherwise she probably would have chucked your groceries in the trunk.

Bed covers for the Baja are very rare and basically all discontinued.

Wheels are a huge improvement.

[ChargerX3]

She cleans up nicely. Does it run better now?

[Chris GTO TT]

Still makes the ticking noise at certain RPM when warming up but otherwise runs great.

[Chris GTO TT]

Suspension is next on the list... Not sure which way to go.

Unproven rally style coilover suspension https://flatoutsuspension.net/collectio ... s/baja-grl

or more proven KYB's and King Springs https://www.rallitek.com/assembled-stru ... -2003.html and https://www.rallitek.com/assembled-stru ... -2003.html

[Duck Vader]

Suspension is one are I never cheap out on. Go the proven route for peace of mind.

[Chris GTO TT]

That was my first inclination too but they use a higher spring rate and longer springs to get the lift. I'm concerned it'd ride terribly off road. The rally style seems like it'd be more fun and better riding all around. Just teh company is a bit of an unknown.

[Duck Vader]

How important is reliability for you? If not too much and this is truly a toy and you are using disposable income, try it.

[ChargerX3]

Billstein or Fox make anything?

[Chris GTO TT]

Nope. If I could order from Bilstein Japan maybe but not in the US.

[tabasco122]

meh, there arent many good options for long travel on a subaru. If you want a lift drop the coin on a Subie lift OZ. or just do 2" spacers on the suspension tops. kings suck and actually give you less travel.

Um isnt Subie Lift OZ just a spacer lift like ADF and Subtle Solutions?

[tabasco122]

their bigger lift kits include drivetrain drop components too, its a full package, and better built.

[Chris GTO TT]

Better built how? Also their website shows only Forester lifts available.
