Too much lift? Post your examples...

Post by El_Freddo » Wed Dec 21, 2011 10:54 pm

While rummaging around on USMB I came across this image. Thought it a good time to post the images you've found of examples of subarus that could actually have gone beyond to the point of too much lift.

Example:

Post away/discuss, I'm sure there will be a few of the vortex boys interested in this image...

thats an interesting lift, toyota? nissan? GM? Ford?

While the body is nearly 4 feet off the ground, there is still only 300mm under the diff.

Believe it or not I actually like the way it looks. I'm not doing it to jetcar, but hey jet car will be lifted.

That I don't know Toonga, I found it on this thread. It's currently at 46 pages!!! There wasn't a description with the pic :(

I've noticed a load of aussie pics in there, but they don't seem to know much about them :twisted:

Yeah nice one Guyph, I do like that old school brumby, very neat!

There's this one I know from offroadsubarus:

Butter's L wagon, only 8 inches of lift!
