Thanks Bantum, what search term did you use to find it in Gumtree?
I can't find it anywhere

Is this car still for sale?

What are you looking at? Cv bands only cost about $4 each.

+1 REPCO Drive Shaft Problems ! I wish I'd found this thread sooner. It would have save me time, money and frustration. To make a very long story short, I have found the hard way that the REPCO rear replacement driveshaft for an 07 XT Forester is 5mm shorter than OEM. This may not be an issue in a s...

Does anyone know where this car is now?

I have an enthusiast friend looking for a very clean Brumby with EJ/STi conversion hardwork completed.

....I'm starting to agree that the centre diff is not fully and properly locked when first gear is selected as I get no hopping when doing a tight turn on bitumen, for example... That's a perfect example. Everyone hates it when their 4EAT develops torque bind, the feeling of a locked MPT Clutch is ...

From what I've read over time, the Prodrive TCU combined with the VTD centre diff locks torque 50:50 when gear lever is on 1 or 2. Have you felt a lot of difference with the lock-up mod? I used to think that locking the car in first would automatically lock the MPT Clutch but it doesn't. There is g...

I'm in love with the look of this Forester!!! Looks so awesome! You've done a great job and I love the look of that Front Bar!! So much better approach angle than the standard SubaXtreme one for that model!! Thanks Tigger and Pedro, that front bar on my car sits even higher than it does on the prev...

In it's simplest form an MTP Lockup mod just requires a switch in the wire from the TCU to the duty C solenoid. No volts means full lock up. This will produce some error codes and the better way to do the mod is with a two way rocker switch which swap between the duty C solenoid and a dummy load. Fo...

Here's some pics of my MY07 Subaru Forester XT Luxury, I bought it stock standard in April last year and have been modifying since. I have done almost all the custom work, modifications and fitted all accessories myself. There's been a lot of attention to detail to get everything looking and perform...

I would have a pair of standard ones if you still need some.

Self Leveling Struts.

Came out on the XT for sure and maybe the XS too?

I think lefty would be happy to get your 'regular' struts as the self levelers aren't as good as the name suggests.

Got one !

Anyone? Doesn't matter if the bumper is damaged I just need the very top bit to go here:

Item Description: SG9 Front Bumper To suit: 06-08 Locational Criteria: Can pick up anywhere on the East coast between Sunshine Coast and Coffs Harbour on the 9-10th of May Condition: Doesn't matter, I only need the top third for a bullbar project and will be respraying it however I would prefer the...

there is a few more than that mate but you are right, they are very rare. That's funny because the guy who made them can only remember 4 being made. That said, the red liberty I mentioned above was stolen and written off recently. The car has been recovered and will be purchased back from the insur...

Oh well I will keep trying. You never know he may upgrade and finally not have a use for it. Ray Subaxtreme only ever made 4 gen 1 Liberty front bars, there's a red one in Maryborough, there's Grant's, there's a black one in Brisbane which was last spotted many many years ago. It's anyone's guess w...

Where did you find the rear bar? It's a very special one made by an original subaxtreme owner for his own XT but never 100% finished before he sold the car. I picked it up from the second owner of the car who never fit it either. Now I owe a Bearded man at least one bottle of American Honey for his...

Update: The search is over, I now have the matching set

Thanks, It's interesting that no subaxtreme front bars have come up on gumtree or ebay in over a year of searching. My theory is that the cars are over ten years old now and people are selling them without taking the accessories off. As an example it's getting fairly common to see SG Foresters sell ...
