Holy smoke!  Throw some Sammi axles under there and ROCK!
IFS is best kept at ambient temperature in a pile of scrap in the backyard.  When kept under a functioning vehicle, it tends to greatly diminish said vehicle's offroad ability.     -reklund5

Sweet!  There's a guy in mid or southern oregon who sells those too.  I think he even carries lift kits for them.

Thats cool. I would sport one :D

Actually I was reading on the USCMB the ebay board and a subaru version of one of those was for sale. it looked quite similar but it was really old, like 70s or so. I had never seen those either. pretty neat find
