hey man, thanks for the upload, very cool vidoe. just curious, any issues with the new wheels rubbing against the wheel well or mud flaps?

The lift, those wheels(Including color), and the white on that Crosstrek, make it all come together fantastically!!! Thanks for the "Subaru Love" Blake.

That's one of the clearest, best made DIY videos I've seen in a long time. I have a 2014 Outback that I'd like to 2" lift w/KO2's on it. Very well done, guys!

Same I'm curious what size tires I could run

I just bought a crosstrek this week! Can't wait to start doing my own mods like this. Thanks for the video, I'll be sure to come back to this when i do it on my own

Great job guys. Did a good job of explaining the process. Looking forward to seeing more of this vehicle

Like the Zeppelin intro 🤘🏻Hoping to get a crosstrek at the end of the summer, love that they still offer a manual option.

Running my new Crosstrek or XV as we call them in Australia. Definitely the most unique car of the four cars I've owned. Feel a lot bigger to drive than they look, especially after my 11 year old Mazda 323. Love the driving position, power adequate for a vehicle of this type.

Thank you so much guys, i was having problems on certain area, but after watching your video, it solve my problem putting 1inch lift with primitive racing king spring and .5inch subtle solution lift on my 2019 xv

You guys are way ahead of me. Well done, looks flat out great!

This video is one of the best on a lot of levels. Biggest fro me is how he covers the methodology of the lift, it will help nearly anyone with a front strut suv/cuv put a lift on their rig. I plan on using this video as a step guide to lift my GLK350. The Mercedes is cheaper (used) than a comparable (year, mileage) forester and has good power. Thank you for the video!

Thanks for the kind words man!!!

That was fun. Everything has been solid since the install!

This is a really good video. If only I had a Subaru crosstrek

I just picked up a 19 Trek, definitely want to do something similar, nice and informative video!

For those of you worried about the power, I have 1994 Suzuki sidekick with the same size tires and a mild lift. It has 95 hp and may be a tad lighter than the Crosstrek, not sure. It has a winch bumper and a rear locker. I love that thing! The Crosstrek would be a powerhouse compared to the Sidekick. I'm sure its still really fun the way its set up now.

Blake that crosstrek looks great! And I enjoy your channel brother!

I don't even own a Crosstrek and I watched this whole video.

Man that was a monster install. Good Job!

looks fun to work on a new car, everything is so clean :O ! (I live in canada so rust/dirt develops quickely)

Nice video - all the necessary info and good shots of the nuts, bolts, clips, attachments, etc. This has me wondering if the lift would work on a regular Impreza wagon...

Love the reference to the "chingaderas" well done gentleman , great job!!

Love the install step by step and your super cute Shih Tzu pup💖🐶

Vid is so good I decided to do mine. But I have a ‘14. And now I need to make some modifications to fix the major tire rub! But so worth it! Thanks!

Great install video, the crosstrek is badass.

I love the set up on these crosstrek's a proper rally car!!

Great Vid... Thanks 4 Sharing.... Keep uploading to see the progress and looking forward to end result.!! Thanks dudes

Looks beautiful! Nice work, and nice car!

Great walkthrough!

Fozroamer approves : ) . So glad you guys went with ADF.

You have given the best explanation and context to your descriptions as you move forward with putting everything together so I must say thank you for your expertise and knowledge and accuracy to detail, it’s very hard nowadays to find a good channel like yours that provides all those great qualities

I cant wait to do this on my 2018 as well

Love the No Quarter at the beginning. Good info

Look amazing! Great job!

Those rims and tires looks good. I lifted mine with eibach lift springs 1.2”. Those factory springs are so soft. Keep up the good job. Next project is tires and rims

Nice work! I wonder if this lift system is available for the 2018 outback model?

Our local Subaru dealer puts the same set up on Crosstrek’s and they have done some Outback’s. Same black wheels with off-road tires.

makes me want to get this done on my 2014 crosstrek.. already getting power stop brakes on it.

Sweet lift

Saw a lifted XV/crosstrek. My uncle owns one so I have an idea of how low it is so I immediately recognized a lifted one. Looks better lifted honestly.

, good job guys, totally sick. I'm surprised that all Stainless steel hardware didn't come with this kit ? I think I would have replaced all the nuts, bolts, and washers with all S.S. Hardware.

thanks for great video, I am working on a modification sort of similar to this. I would like to know how this affected roll over on high speed when cornering on asphalt.

NICE JOB

Seen one that looked just like this one a few weeks ago getting onto 695 in linthicum,md

Awesome video , thank you

Damn that looks awesome! I almost think it should come from the factory like that! Kinda makes we wanna trade in my Wrx for a Crosstrek.

Hey, great vid, real useable diy info. I gotta 2017 crosstrek and would be interested in a similar set up, and ideas for suppliers. Also has it affected the mpg like you guy's mentioned in the mud flap vid about the roof rack. Thanks again for a great vid

@stupidchicken03

I couldnt say about the MPG, I had less than 350 miles on the car before doing the lift and tires! Right now I average 24/25 MPG (without the rack obviously lol)

Next stop, OG bronco for this guys

Nice. I would have gotten the Forester though. I love mine.

14 xt i went with the 2 inch rough country loded lifted struts all the way around sitting on falken wildpeaks

Great explanation.

Help! First off, I want to thank you for making our lives easier to lift my 2014 Crosstrek and adding on those method rims and KO2 tires. You were definitely the best source to find instructions. However, I took a trip to Ouray, CO and on the way there the "AT oil Temp" light came on my dash. I pulled over and let the engine cool and it drove normally, but happened repeatedly during the trip. The light came on five times during the whole trip. 2 times on the way from Dallas, TX to Ouray, CO, one time while off roading on different days. One on the Imogene Pass, and the other on Yankee Basin Trail. Then, one time during drive back to Dallas outside of Albuquerque, NM. I took it to the dealer and they're saying that's it's been driving in hot summer heat, plus the heavy tires, and the stuff on the roof rack is what was probably causing it. I drove about 2500 miles the whole trip. Is there anything I can do to improve my long distance trips? I've been looking all over online to find answers. Maybe I need to drill holes on my skid plates for more air flow? They're primitive racings like the ones you installed on Thomas'. Maybe I need to add a transmission cooler?

@stupidchicken03

6 жыл бұрын

I wouldnt run the roof rack with tons of stuff if possible. I know that might not be an option, but that thing does kill MPG and adds a ton of drag when driving. A trans cooler might be the best bet for that. Ive got a manual trans and have not had an issue with it thus far.

@christophergreen3384

I found out it was the Transmission Skid plate causing it, which was weird. I took it off and drove from Denver to Dallas, light never came on. Might drill holes on the skid plate to see if that solves any problems.

dope video! I have a 2019 you think they will rub if I put those same tires on before I get my lift?

Great video 👍

Looks great ! How much heavier are the bigger tires vs stock ?

I've got a 2000 obs with a 3" lift and a 91 loyale 2 door pannel wagon with a 5" lift and front prototype long arm kit tube fenders sliders custom bumpers and 2" receiver's front and rear for the winch and to top it all off the engine is decked and shaved ported and polished custom intake manifold for the shorter block custom exhaust and the icing a duel range trans

Hey, thanks for the great video! I have the same lift as well and I have noticed some slight creaking from the sway bar at low speeds, have you experienced this? Also, did you perform a sway bar relocation during your installation?

I know you guys were going for a certain look with the wheel and tire combo but what if you want to stay with stock wheels and only upgrade the tire. Would you still be able to run the same size tire you selected?

That looks so good! I wish you could get those with the FA20DIT though!

Sarah -n- Tuned with the location of the turbo on the fa20 it’s not very well suited for off roading. When the sti gets an fa motor it will have truly lost all its rally car roots.

I know this is an old video, but what’s the best wheel/tire combo for off road on stock suspension? Looking to upgrade without going all the way quite yet.

Pretty lights ayee

I did everything but I left the stock ceramic spacers with the knew ones. Would this be a major impact?

This cross trek came through my IC AT CARVANA and I inspected it 🤣🤣 small world

Awesome video guys!! Do you think is possible to make to an 2015 impreza sport? I want to lift it up but i havent found info :(

Would like to see how you installed and how you wired. The light bar on the roof rack.

I originally set it up on my Fiance's Sorento, knowing I would also be using it on my Crosstrek once I got it (this was early Feb). So I made a write up on how I hooked it up to her car, basically same steps for the Crosstrek except I have an S-Tech switch system to make all my accessories easier. www.kia-forums.com/2016-sorento/269337-led-light-bar-cargo-basket.html

Would like to get an outback and do this install

Zeppplin trek!. . . . . watching frm Malaysia . . .

Are you able to take the struts and springs from an Crosstrek and place them on a Impreza. is that compatible?

I want to build a crosstrek and do some off-road mods like this. The issue is I would have to sell my TJ and I love that thing lol. Its already got 2.5 inches with front and rear bumpers, aux lights and everything, but it's mpg sucks and its got issues every 20k miles

NICELY DONE!!!!! AND DON’T GO CHEAP PEOPLE!!!!😆😆

Any updates on this build? I'd like to see how it does off road and if you drive it daily things you did not like

I have the same lift kit for my 2015 Subaru Crosstrek XV. Unfortunately I get those loud creaks whenever I go over bumps or turn. Any suggestions?

So why did you choose spacers instead of lift springs? I can't decide between the two on my old forester.

Great job guys.....and thank you from all of us for leaving out the crappy music!

Wish you could have done a split shot of before and after on this. Still cool.

This looks like an absolute beating.

Nice!! Hey tell your buddy if he ever wants to sell his Crosstrek, in case he gets tire of the la lack of engine power, I will buy it from him. And great video!!!

If you get the same lift on stock with stock wheels do you have to change the tire size?

it would be cool to do this on a older subaru with like scrap metal for $10 like a winter beater build

good video, but I kept thinking "no lock tight?!.. " it's always good practice to use it lol.

I have a 2019 Crosstrek and my Rough Country kit did not come with the lifters for the 4 old ones on sub frame. Is there a reason why or did i get shorted parts? I called Rough Country and they said it doesn't come with them but other videos have them

Oh how I wish I had a new car with this degree of cleanliness. I live in the UK ... any car older than 1 year is already rusting on all the underbody nuts and bolts😭

Incredible

Great, now I want a lifted crosstrek.

New cars are always the best to mod.. bolts break open so easily

Is the ADF forester version of this lift install pretty identical?
