Do I need them for just the rear or will I need them for the front...

Cool Thanks for sharing:D

Yeah good point about $580 vs $880, I'll check out Roscos build thread,
Any pics Woody of your car lifted?

Ok I might be able to get some struts and springs out of an outback that has done 240000km's I'm still negotiating a price just below $300 Just wondered am I better off getting new KYB stuts and HD King springs as these have had a few km wear? Or should I get these second hand struts and then buy ne...

I think I'm going to go just the 96-98 outback struts, not sure if I should get standard length HD springs or longer HD springs.
I have noticed when people do this the rear wheels look like they move forward a bit?

Thanks El Freddo and Guyph 01

Ok Thanks for the diagrams and explanations Yarney and Toonga so a strurt lift can be putting on longer outback struts and can also include putting in the 2" blocks as well on top of the struts. and a body lift is putting the blocks on top of the struts plus all those other little blocks and bits be...

Ah well, it was in fair condition but I would have had to take it over the pits and it was a mushy brown colour I wasn't to keen on.
In the meantime Toonga had contacted me about a 92 wagon he was thinking of selling and I'm now buying his one!

guyph_01 wrote:True, lol. where did my post go?

Must have been a glitch on that day.
So Guyph where did you get your tint from to do it yourself?

I guess I need a bit more clarification on the correct terminology/wording Is a strut lift just putting those little 2'' block triangular type spacers just above the struts? or would this be called a body lift? Or is a strut lift just putting on longer struts like the outback ones? Or is putting lon...

I've read pages and pages in this forum on tyre and rim sizes and I've noticed to get bigger rims and tyres to fit a 1st Gen Liberty Some people suggest changing the struts to Outback ones and some suggest putting in a 2" lifter kit. I also understand that even if they are to big they will rub on th...

That's strange I thought someone ??Guyph put a post earlier that they did some tinting on other peoples cars and I replied quoting his post asking where they got the tint from and now his post and mine have disappeared ??

both are good cars it just depends on the shape you want and yes you will have to re register it in WA which means taking it over the pits and sorry in the pm I sent you mine is a gen 1 series 2 I misread your title TOONGA I don't know what a series 2 is I imagine it's a later version of a Gen 1 ca...

Hi Guys I've been patiently looking around for a Liberty wagon I'm going to see a 93 one tomorrow from a Euro backpacker but it has queensland rego, after reading 2nd hand yanks threads I'm under the impression I will have to take it over the pits to get the rego changed to WA rego if I buy it ? is ...

That would have come straight from the wreckers or auctions, word of warning, never buy off a shifty Habib who keeps his dodgy cars at an empty house ............. or Guy.LOL Was it Maroon with scruffy plastiscs, if so it was on Gumtree a few weeks ago. I heard the cops are going to be all over the...

Ok finally got in contact with the Guy, Met him at a empty house where he had a falcon and camry wagon he was also selling, he was a bit hard to understand he said he was from Egypt his English was poor. Body was straight but the whole car was covered in armoral (gave it greasy smelly paint) silver ...

Thanks for the tips . I don't have buyer envy I have "over the pits fear" I'd hate for the inspectors to give me a huge list of things to fix, that will cost me buckets of money! Plus if it's got no plates I'm not sure how I'm going to get it home and I can't exactly test drive it with no plates, hm...

Yeah I have to go and check it out, if it looks a bit suss I'll walk away
I've got a bit of a guide of things to look for http://www.transport.wa.gov.au/mediaFil ... ehicle.pdf
It's a bit of a gamble but I could score a bargain.

I've just found a 97 Outback auto unlicensed with 132000 k's for $2000 which I'm going to check out tomorrow morning. He let the rego run out about 4 months ago. It looks pretty clean and tidy in his pics. Does anyone know is it easy or hard to get a car re licensed here in WA Also can anyone recomm...

OK thanks. It looks like I will have to keep looking, I had arranged to see the car at 5.30pm and he just sent me a text at 4.50pm saying it had been sold! So as they weren't a good model probably just as well then, plus I wasn't too keen on the brown colour, I did like the low kms.
