  1. Gen 5: 2015-2019
    I don't want to fight, but I don't mind arguing. I wanted to present my two year experience with the Ironman 2" Spec-C struts and why I believe there is virtually no reason to purchase them over your OEM struts and spacer lift (unless its time for new struts) I guess... Current setup I am...
  2. Tires & Wheels
    As the title says I need to find out what the largest tire I can put on my 2019 outback with a 2 inch lift. I’ve taken my outback some pretty crazy places already but it’s time to upgrade my tires and add a lift. Looking forward to not worrying quite as much when I’m , uh , in the outback with...
  3. Suspension & Brakes
    Hey all, I’m pretty new here but I’ve been searching around to find a comprehensive thread about all the options for lift and suspension upgrades for Gen 6 off road/overland builds and haven’t found anything so far. Am I missing something? I’ve found a few that come close especially from Brucey...
  4. Suspension & Brakes
    What’s up, yall. Back again here. I was able to install Rallitek 1/4” Overload Springs (355lb spring rate) w/ KYB Excel-Gs and 1/2” Rallitek Spacers in the front and rear of my 2016 Subaru Outback Limited 2.5i w/ Eyesight. It’s been about 2 months driving daily and consistently for commutes and...
  5. Suspension & Brakes
    What’s up y’all. So I just replaced 185k miles OEM Struts and Springs on my 2016 Outback 2.5 Limited with KYB Excel-G, RalliTEK 1/4” Springs, and RalliTEK 1/2” Top Hat Spacer (all-in-all a 3/4” lift in the rear). However, after installation and torquing everything to spec, the rear is sitting...
  6. Suspension & Brakes
    Hello, a few years ago I installed a lift kit that included 1" HDPE rear strut spacers. I promptly had the rear struts blow out and I couldn't afford to fix them for a bit. Now I've replaced the rear struts and many bushings+a control arm but I believe the lack of shock absorption might have...
  7. Suspension & Brakes
    How much can you lift an outback? I am looking for some help/advise on what to do with my current outback build. I have 2022 OBW with a 2" ironman suspension lift with a 1" subframe drop and 245/65R17 fallen wild peak A/T3W tires. Just added a primitive racing skip plate kit and LP aventure...
  8. Gen 5: 2015-2019
    Hey y'all I've been continuing my research on Rallitek Suspension upgrades but am looking for some insight from anyone who has experience or currently running any Rallitek setups. As of right now, I am stuck between: 1/4" Springs (Front/Rear); 1" Top Hat Spacers (Front/Rear) $672 and Raised...
  9. Problems & DIY Maintenance
    2006 LL bean Outback I’m getting this clicking sound (see the video linked below from earlier today) from the front left of my car after doing a 1.5 inch ADF lift. It only happens at less than five miles an hour, when straight OR when turning. I was thinking CV axle but it seems weird that it’s...
  10. Suspension & Brakes
    Hey guys, I know this topic has been beat to death, but I was hoping for some specific assistance. I wanted to put 15 inch wheels on my 06 LL Bean Outback. (I know the brake clearance can be iffy, but I hear the method rally wheels clear the 290-something mm discs just fine). 235 75 r15's look...
  11. Suspension & Brakes
    Good day all, We own a 22' limited XT and we just purchased a 22' wilderness. I will be installing the ironman 4x4 spec C suspension on the wilderness and was looking about installing the wilderness suspension on the limited XT. Has anybody done this already? I am pretty confident that parts...
  12. Performance Parts & Accessories
    Lifted the front of my 2004 Outback with 2" strut spacers, I should've just found Baja springs but whatever. Tried lifting the rear with spacers and it's too much, it bends the strut and spring in a bad way. The rest of the suspension components refuse to line up, even with a adjustable trailing...
  13. Tires & Wheels
    Hi all, have just installed a 40mm spacer lift (1.57inch) on my 05 OB. Now wanting to put AT's on, was thinking of 225/70/R16, was curious if anyone had tried this size tyre before and how much rubbing was there, I'm willing to do a little cutting in the fenders, but obviously the less the...
  14. Outback Unpaved
    1999 Legacy Outback I want to lift this about 1.5-2.5 inches, Im wondering what to expect when putting bigger 215/75R15 All terrains on my outback before I lift it. will I be okay getting bigger tires before actually doing the lift? what rubbing should I expect and what are some fixes for it...

    This is ONLY the subframe kit Ironman 4x4 America subframe kit has never been used. This came with the ATS coil overs but I kept my ADF subframe kit installed instead. Should work just fine for any spacer and/or coilover lift if you don't already have the subframe kit. $100 OBO + shipping

  16. Gen 2: 2000-2004
    I lifted my 2002 Subaru Outback with a 2 inch lift kit so I have about 3 or more inches and I want to put maybe 30 inch tires on it, would 245/70R16 work on my stock rims, maybe with wheel spacers if I need too?

    Alright guys, the time has come to sum up my experience with the Flatout GR Lite and the Flatout GR Plus coilovers over the past 6 months and 5,000 miles. Also, I'd like to share some technical tips as there are a few widespread misconceptions on the Internet regarding the installation and the...
  19. Gen 1: 1995-1999
    I know this has been posted in the past, however options have changed as some manufactures are no longer producing kits for the Gen 1 legacy outback. I have recently decided to keep my 99 legacy outback as a weekend/camper rig and have started doing some basic upgrades such as some g015...
  20. Gen 5: 2015-2019
    Hi, I'd like to install a set of 1-inch lift spacers, both front and rear. If any of you have done the same, how did it impact your Outback's fuel efficiency? Did you experience any other consequences with such a moderate lift (CV boot wear, etc.)? Thanks!
