Has this had anything to do with the ambient temperature of the cabin? My wife's 94 Lib has perfect AC until it is left in the sun and the cabin temp is high. It runs for maybe 30 seconds, cuts out and doesn't work until the interior is cooled by opening the windows etc. Hot humid days when needed m...

Outback suspension

Hi Darren
does your Outback have self levelling rear suspension? We have just raised our 99 Outback with Kings and new KYBs, can give you a few pointers.

Outback Spring Lift

Just thought i'd share my recent experience of fitting 30mm raised king springs and new KYB struts. We came across a few issues that may enlighten others thinking of doing the same. My outback is a '99 model. With the front struts removed it was time to pull apart the front struts to keep the origin...

Rogaine 2010 events

Are these struts providing similar height to a 2 inch lift? Would be interested for Gen 3 Outback if this is the case and camber isn't a problem. Are you planning on running standard height or raised springs?

gen 3 outback lift

Mate
what is the best way to get some extra clearance on a 00 Outback? Want to run up the beach from time to time, not doing any serious off road.
Thanks

16 inch WRX rims fit an Outback??

Anyone know if 16 X 7 MY99 WRX rims will fit a Gen 3 Outback? The Outback rims are 16 X 6.5 and have 48 mm offset, not sure with the WRX rims if the tyres will clear the struts. Was looking at running 215/60 X 15 Yokohama C drives. Anyone tried this before??
