Congratulations on buying a Forester, I love mine too even with it's shortcomings (rear leg room). Keep a close eye on that sunroof too, they have caused quite a few owners some heartache, not so much here in Aust., but in the USA they have. __________________ Peter Cheers Tosha about the rear legro...

Right............

So i can change from my Duel Range Box (FWD, 4WD HI/LO) to Fulltime Duel Range (AWD,AWD HI/LO with vacum diff lock)with no hassel. Apart from having to make a switch to control the vacum to the diff lock. And the best ratio to get is 3:9:1.

My motive is that i want AWD for added traction and handling in the wet. It pissed down rain in Newcastle a couple of weeksago and i put it into 4WD hi to see what would happen and the car felt more stable. I would also like the option to go offroad so the diff lock is a must. I got out of a FWD Dai...
