Need advice,i want to lift a mates '07 forrester...

Post by mada1234 »

I'm posting this for a mate who's 4wd suffers from a sad condition commonly known as 'ducks disease' It is a great vehicle to drive on road, but it would be better with a little more lift to make it a bit more capable off road How much of a mission would it be to get another inch or two of lift in an '07 forrester? The lift is to fit a better set of tires (not too much larger than std) and to keep the sills and undercarriage a bit safer!
Any advice appreciated, thanks.

Got a few examples of lits done, even DIY spacers...

Just be careful with insurance issues when doing such a lift.

Most guys go for:

50-60mm with strut spacers and 10-30mm in springs.

Funny how maybe 10% of height modified Subaru's go up while most height modified suby's are on coilovers! LOL (Even foresters)
