Looks like the same one from a few pages back.  I like it!!  Guess he knows someone on the board.

That deserves a permanent place here after the ad expires. :thumbs:


You read it right... a street-legal Subaru Station Wagon that can tackle any trail in CO you point it to! I have a clean title to it, and need to sell fairly quick... This is all custom, full cage tied into the tube chassis. There are some quirks to it, but at the end of the day, it is fully locked, hydro steering, and a crawl ratio over 200:1!

Check out the list of parts:

-Saturn 1.9L DOHC engine (will get a turbo later when I have time to build the plumbing)
-Toyota 5 speed transmission
-Toyota 2.6:1 reduction box (can't remember if that is actually the correct reduction right now )
-Toyota 4.7:1 transfer case
-Narrowed D44 front with Alloy shafts, welded, 5.13's
-Narrowed 31 spline 9 inch rear with lockrite, 5.13's
-4 linked front and rear
-Full hydraulic steering
-12" Sway-a-way coil overs
-35" Maxxis Treppadors
-4x Allied Rock-A-Thon Beadlock rims (nearly new, rock rash)
-Front Warn Winch, 2-way mount as a suck winch and front recovery
-Rear suck Winch, remote controlled
-Comes with a set of Warn Hubs that can be installed

The bad?
-The backseat windows have been broken out. They are easily replaced from a salvage yard.
-There are small leaks in the drivetrain. Nothing major, but notable.
-There are some love taps in the body.... Rocks haven't been kind to this subi.
-Everyone honks at you on the road, and asks if you can convert their subaru to a crawler.

I like the paint job how it is. But everything else sounds sick. A bed would definitely look cool on there. Either way, its a bad ass rig man.

I like being able to go through brush and not worry about scratches.

the camo is really tough -scratch resistant

Thanks Mike, now this guy is nutz he goes everywhere with us in his very well set up Ranger extracab. It has all the goodies and is in pristine condition. He has yet to bang it up thanks to some great spotting by our team. That's not to say he hasn't high-centered it.

That's awesome ! ! . I love seeing rigs that get wheeled but have nice straight bodies , it tells alot about the driver  :cool:  . I hate seeing people who purposely flop or roll their rigs  :shake: . I was gonna start a thread about that but figured I'd get alot of replies from people who don't understand .
