I would definitely run subframe spacers once past 2 inches. Otherwise you'll cook everything. I'm running an ADF lift and have only broken one axle (my own fault lol.)
Locking diffs would be sick! I use a Torq Locker in my Subaru and it works really well. If they did bigger wheel wells, people would burn up the transmissions. I'd love to see a dual range again but with an actually usable reduction gear. THAT would be the real game changer.

Not sure if they will or not. Would love to see them do that! It requires a LOT of extra work. Front and rear subframe, carrier bearing, etc. Would likely be a pretty penny but would be so rad!

You think the 265s would fit with a 2 inch lift on front and 2.5 inch on rear? That’s the size I originally wanted to do but folks were saying it was too big. I have the Raceworks kit coming in a couple weeks and new tires and wheels in a month. If I can do 265s that would be perfect
@@TheOnlyArkmaster you could probably MAKE them fit. But I wouldn't suggest it😅 Even on this setup it's the very far end of what I'd ever run on a Subaru. This build was more of a "let's push this platform as far as we can just for fun" kind of thing. Do you have a wilderness?
I love that-- but it wouldn't be legal here in VA.. they get you and ticket you immediatley if more than 2 inches over stock-- on cars..and I think trucks are allowed a LITTLE more..

@@jprader1 I've been asking Pat to release this to the public. He said the cost due to the sheer number of parts would be really price prohibitive to most. And the production time pulls his machines away from their regular parts manufacturing. But fingers crossed!
Did you even watch the fucking video? 🤣It was built by Patrick Anderson and he did custom subframe spacers on the car. Dude knows his shit. I stg people just post bullshit without watching 😆
This kit has been on for over a year with no axle replacements. Proper mods have been done to correct all suspension and drivetrain angles. If you actually watch the video, Patrick shows the front subframe spacers, transmission mount, carrier bearing spacer, and rear multi link spacers he created.
4Runners eat gas like a mf and in most situations, a Subaru will get you where you need to go just as well. If you want a rock crawler, sure. Build a 2nd gen runner and sas it. Otherwise, I'm good on owning a full size SUV lol.
Thanks for not showing the lift. Your camera skills need real help. Seriously all that work and you don’t even step back and show the whole Outback lifted. Just close up shots of the bumpers 🙄
Also, here is a link to the write up that includes a metric sh** ton of "whole outback lifted" photos and additional photos of the lift that I shot. liftedimports.com/adf-lifted-subaru-outback-wilderness-edition/
So the whole fucking fuselage is on extended brackets. Some of y'all ain't old enough to remember the 80's body lift fiasco, and it shows.
@@TheOGMattBurns 🤣🤣🤣
These are unibody and people have been running these lifts since the early-mid 00's. Thanks for the comment🤙
Subframe spacers are the way to go. That's how I did my Forester years ago. I never lost a boot it made it perfect.
I would definitely run subframe spacers once past 2 inches. Otherwise you'll cook everything. I'm running an ADF lift and have only broken one axle (my own fault lol.)
Subaru needs bigger wheel wells, factory front and rear locking diff. I hope Subaru embraces the overland/ off road life.
