dang its been a while!

when i worked at intel, anytime id go into the datacenter they would remind us we have ~17 seconds until all the air is displaced by the local FM100 / halo*something fire system in the event of an emergency. never been more alert and on edge than working in that room..

hey all. i live an hour ish from the rubicon trail and i fish and boat and camp loon lake a TON. super familiar with all things crystal basin UNTIL you get to the rubicon. i have a subi so im not trying to get on the trail at all. my 10 year old nephew from los angeles is all about trucks and...

after a rallitek spring lift, tires, skid plates, and a hitch.. it was time for a winch. install was straightforward. however i did have to remove and modify the active grill shutter system quite a bit to workaround an engine code. nothing in the install docs or youtubes showed this...

This is awesome! im all of the sudden excited for replacing my suspension at 100 something thousand miles now. never considered this.

I did the Rallitek springs on the OEM struts shortly after getting my forester. id like to add a 1 inch spacer before the next snow but i agree, not much really to do aside of springs and spacers and maybe struts. For me if money was no concern id replace the struts, control arms, and basically...

i've got a Bracketeer in my forester on the passenger seat rails. fits perfect. i suggest it. mega easy install. i also have some plastic tabs on my rails and they dont get in the way.

Please do! we will get this working. i only have nuvis so its good to have a few different models tested. thanks!

After i miscalculated the height of my forester and roof top tent (a few times....), i started using my firestik as a height indicator. i marked the high point on the whip so i can use it as a visual reference. its saved me more than once. add a tally for a hard wired antenna. saves my arse...

Comms are a must. i have a cb and firestik and will never drive without some kind of radio. i forgot people make skids out of street signs.. thats a great idea.

Thanks guys, that's kind of what i thought. this last trip thru henness pass was full of bigger-than-i-usually-see rocks and i was careful not to go too nuts on them. took my time and whatnot. never felt i needed any protection other than my bfg ko2 and i for sure did not and do not plan on...

Im looking at some under plating, any opinions? i softroad more than anything and am not going too insane in my forester but after a weekend on the dirt i see the value of some protection. a friend suggested i go with the subaru plates and their differential plate. i like how they are cheaper...
