Default Steering Extension for lifted ob

hey folks

new to this forum as I've puchased myself a 1997 JDM outback grandwagon. Loving it so far but ****, it needs to be lifted. I have a kit that I took out of my liberty after I wrote it off, and plan to put the same kit into my outback.

Three main questions:

1. What length does the steering extension need to be? The one that was in my lib will be too short.

2. To those that have lifted ob's, did you simply add your spaces on top of the existing spacers? Any issues?

3. Did you extend your brake lines, if so how by how much?

It's a 2" kit with 3" strut tops, raised king springs.

Cheers,
Owen.

I really think you will need to install your lift and see what is needed.

Another option is to check the off road forum at www.ultimatesubaru.net
