Just waiting on a more few lights to arrive. It's a bit overkill, but pretty pleased with it. Right now it's powering some pretty basic things, but it was important to me to have a better solution for adding accessiores instead of a hodgepodge of random buttons. It's also a premium truck, so if...

Mounted the switch pros 9100 faceplate to my Colorado. It's a quickly hobbled together mount as a proof of concept to test location and usability for a bit before making something more permanent. Will be working on the harness over the coming days, then can finally power it up. @DK_XV | PNW |...

Bit of a bummer as I really was hoping for this trip to be my season opener, but the weather has not been nice and cooperative at all. Not to mention a pretty constant cloud cover that makes viewing the sky all but a pipe dream. I live up in Easton, and the pass and areas got hit with a good...

Coloradofans and here! But most of my build and stuff I keep on here as it's more inclusive than just Colorado things. And I think my build will evolve more than bolt ons, and into fabricated solutions for overlanding needs. Sent from my PH-1 using Tapatalk

Its been a busy last few weeks. Just a quick update as its been a bit. Still no excursions yet, but I have been packing, planning and outfitting as the snow has been receding and warmer weather arrives. I've gotten a 2" front and rear lift installed. Flag mount installed for runs at the dunes...

Lifted! 2" front and rear. Nothing too fancy, just a spacer, diff and sway bar drop for the front, and rear blocks and shock extenders. Sent from my PH-1 using Tapatalk

My camping gear has been coming in! I've had a steady stream delivery trucks coming the last few weeks. Some of this I've had for years, but a bunch is new, or replacements of things I've had but upgraded. I've been putting together this list over the past year, trying to keep it somewhat sane...

Scratches happen. Every couple years, head out to your favorite detailer, or pick up the tools to compound and polish yourself. My daily driving did more damage with rocks, snow and salt than a few sage brushes. And if Subaru would come out and toss in the the Low Range option they have in...

New gear! Camp Chef outdoor kitchen table. One of my biggest curses of camping is the disorganization of things. So picked up a neat organiser and table combo. It seems surprisingly well made and holds a ton of stuff. Also, bonus pics from a snow drive today! Sent from my PH-1 using Tapatalk

I went with the Mann springs because they were a lift spring vs a spring rate change with the king's. Also the spacer pushes down on the whole strut assembly, maxing out suspention geometry. So basically done to prevent additional wear and tear on things. As far as bounce goes, I think the...

Posted! - https://www.overlandbound.com/forums/threads/subaru-owners-registry.3450/page-14 Thanks for the pointer! And posted the start of my Colorado build as a journal as well. I go through Oregon every so often, and plan on doing a trip there in either July or September on the way to...

And the up to date pics... About 21k miles logged so far

A little catching up from July… About a month after I brought it home, we headed out from Central Washington to near the Grand Tetons to see the Aug 21 Total Eclipse. It was an epic 2000 mile trip, and my first multi-state road trip! While we did do some camping, we also cheated and stayed at...

Hello Subie enthusiasts! I was pointed this direction by @OrTrek to post some pics and link to my build Journal of my former 2016 Desert Khaki 5sp Manual Crosstrek 2.0i. This is an external link to SubaruXVForum...

I picked up my Colorado in July of this year. I traded in my former camping rig (F350 Dually Diesel with a 10’5 Lance Truck camper) as well as my then daily driver, an off-road modified Subaru Crosstrek for a platform that would make a great daily driving truck for my 120 mi commute as well as...

Thanks! And Your icon is a little like looking into the mirror! LOL I'm not gonna lie, getting rid of the Crosstrek was really, really hard to do (don't tell anyone, but I shed a little tear, the first time out of all the cars I owned and sold). I absolutely loved it. I traded it as it was, and...

And for another shameless plug vid of the Crosstrek when I did a shakedown after I installed the lift Sent from my PH-1 using OB Talk mobile app

I had a nicely done up Crosstrek. The SubaruXV forum was one of the best auto forums I've joined. Great and helpful peeps on there. And I second the Baja Designs lights. They are stellar! I have a pair on my Colorado. And lastly, if on reddit, r/battlewagon is full of subies modified in...

I vote Subaru. I had a Crosstrek put a lift and some springs on it and it was good fun. With the lift and tires it had a solid 10-11" of clearance. The biggest problem I had was the 5-sp the lack of torque and gears made for much a burned clutch. The new XT has the CVT and Xmode which will...
