So this guy on the SubaruXV forum (Ryno) is installing a Flat4x4 rear bumper on his Crosstrek. Looks REALLY good. The company doing it is pretty small. But I see a couple of you (Wawa and Fozroamer) looking at the product on their instagram. Really for me I am looking at his front bumper...

Thanks DK_XV for posting your build on this generation Crosstrek. And boy your past Trek is close to mine - I also have the WRX "butt plug" . Some questions: 1. Reason you went with the Mann springs over the Kings? The Mann's seem to have a following with the Crosstrek forum members, but I...

Funny, I was thinking the same thing on the looks - they're brothers. I'll let you post the link. It's just on the forum at Overland Discussion/Subaru Owners Registry (as of now on the 2nd page 4 down). You deserve the credit. Though you'll have to admit to all that you went to the dark side...

DK_XV: I remember your Crosstrek from the SubaruXV forum. I also remember following your great build thread. Hated to see you leave. My Trek is very similar to yours - sport grille, color, etc. I have been thinking it's time to add the Mann springs - as at times I carry some weight and...

Ripley, there are a number of Subaru forums (Outback, Forester and Crosstrek specific) that may be of good assistance. You can join them (free) or just visit to gain pretty good tech information. For example on lifts, many use spacers (ADF, Primitive, Subtle, others) or springs, especially if...

Salem, OR

Hi Cody. I'm from OR but missed some of the above as I'm out of the rain in HI. Anyway a couple of things: 1. If you have a 2018 the best you can do is a 1-1/2" lift (per Patrick at ADF, unless he's figured it out recently). The previous gens could do a 2", but the 18's have a different...

Great part of the country. You'll enjoy it. Plus with your rig and no trailer anything is possible. I do this in a Crosstrek. Let us know how it went. Drive with care and enjoy.

I love S Utah. It will be cold with possible snow, but fewer people. I've hiked all over this part of the country as early as mid Feb. Check the weather before you get there. In addition to the above suggestions on hikes: 1. Capitol Reef NP - actually my favorite U.S. park. Cassidy Arch...

Thanks FozRoamer, that does answer my question and I appreciate the candor. Also this is a great forum, providing information that is more relevant to my needs and desires than the standard Subie/Jeep forums. Thx.

To fozroamer: On the various Crosstrek/Forester forums your setup is gold. But I have never seen a reason you went from Leadfoot to Frenetic (sp?). Why? Crosstreks have no options and with a 18 approach angle it is becoming a deal breaker with me. Any options you see? Or anyone chime in. Thx.
