    My Lifted Subaru Baja

    Hey guys! I'd thought I'd share one of my non-e30 builds with this community. I present to you my 2006 Subaru Baja, that has been lifted along with countless other modifications. Please let me know if you want to see more pictures and hear about my journey building this thing.



    My rigs:
    1984 Jeep Cj7 (my baby)
    Lifted 2006 Subaru Baja (the daily)
    1987 BMW 325e Off-road Build (the new hotness)

        Nice! I had a lifted forester for a bit. Comically slow but it went everywhere and never got stuck. Head gaskets and a hail storm took it out sadly.

              My favorite part about Subarus is how much abuse they can take before breaking. The only time I have ever been left stranded was when my clutch gave out as I was driving on the beach... that was fun...

                I didn't even know these existed. This would be the perfect car for hunting.

                    i wish subaru and more car makers would make the ute style for America. but that would cut into all sales of the full size trucks bought for "grabbing a bag of soil from home depot" argument :P

                      Yeah me too. The chicken tax really hurt this.

                      And the bed on my baja is usually just big enough or completely too small for whatever im doing.
                      I can just barely fit a small quad in the back.
                      When I made/bought my lift kit, I added almost 3/4" in the back to try and alleviate the saggy rear end when hauling things.

                        I wish every subaru didn't eat it's headgasket (I know the new ones don't much but I don't like them). I still want a bugeye wrx wagon or a lifted Forester XT.
