Seb_ Posted March 30, 2021 Posted March 30, 2021 Hi There, I'm considering making my 2007 Outback into a more offroad competant camping vehicle for the purpose of driving primarily on dirt road and mild offroad such as fields, woodland, hills, farm land etc. My initial thought is to: buy some 15" alloys and fit some AT tyres. lift the car by 2" Now I know this will no doubt make my experience on the road worse, but I use the car rarely and intend on making it purely a camping/adventure mobile. I need some advice on the lifting, what's the best way to do it? My intent is to use a decent lift kit rather than just spacers at the top of the struts, I assume a suspension upgrade is the way to go but I would like to hear from people who have done it. Is there anything else I should be thinking about other than tyres and suspension? Any advice is much appreciated.
Seb_ Posted March 30, 2021 Author Posted March 30, 2021 Having done a limited amount of searching the only solution I seem to be able to find is a spacer kit from AWDAdventure.com (ADF). 05-09 SUBARU OUTBACK 2" STRUT SPACERS W/ MULTI LINK SPACERS 05-09.OB-2.5SS2MLK https://awdadventure.com/collections/2005-2009-subaru-outback/products/05-09-outback-2-strut-spacers-w-multi-link-spacers?variant=31671232659500 I think that kit would be suitable but is this the right strategy? I was thinking replacement springs/dampers would be the way to go? $600 seems a lot of money for a few pieces of drilled box section and some bolts.
