June 10, 2015 10:33AM
so i am a committe memeber for the ojibwe forests rally, as well as headwaters rally, so i frequently travel the roads the event is run on, and i would like to do something to my suspenion in hopes i will clear more rocks, and it will last longer... i was just thinking King Racing lift springs? what would you guys reccommend? not looking for rally coils, just more height, maybe stiffer

Skid plate?

You should really stop, get out and toss those monkey skulls far far into the woods...we don't want to drive over them at speed. grinning smiley

already have a skid plate (primitive 3/16 rally plate) and diff cover, as well is cusco power braces which seem to block some things from damage.

Are Forester springs an option? I thought they were with the older stuff.

Sorry, can't really provide much help, maybe somebody will chime in, although I don't think there are a lot of Subaru owners on here.

Yup, those Ojibwe rocks can be nasty. I had an unfortunate encounter with one in 2009 I think.
