Here a couple snaps from my weekend project. I've never liked the factory foam/carpet trunk, it didn't give me enough flexibility. So I ripped it out. I used 1.5" x 1.5" lumber to build a frame and used .75" particle board to finish off the top. I put a 2' x 2' door over the spare tire well. I...

@Rocky @buckwilk Ill try and get you guys some better shots of the bumper! I've been horrible about keeping this build updated. The last little thing I've done to this thing was add a light onto the backside of the awning to help with rear lighting. Found a bolt that fit into the groove on the...

Well taxes are all done and decided it was time to get this rear bumper/tire mount done to get the spare out of the back. Summer is coming which means trips! I came across Dmitriy and his fab shop Stellarbuilt on Instagram and reached out to him a couple months ago about the crazy idea about...

Update (I need to start taking more build pictures...) While waiting for the ADF lift to arrive, I went ahead a made a pretty rough custom sink that pulls out of the back. I was able to mount it into some factory screw holes, and then the rear seat gives it some extra support. Finally found a...

Here are some pics with the electric tape covering the shrink tube. It's held up just fine through a couple good storms so far!

krzyboy2o - I got some shrink tube and ran the wires through that, then ran the shrink tube down the windshield weatherstripping and under the hood. Then down the windshield I covered the shrink tube with electrical tape to hold it in place. Up further on the roof I also ran it through some wire...

Quick update here: Finally got my emblems in the mail after they jumped around post offices for a couple days! Also took a quick trip to Yosemite before our daughter is born in January. On one of my daily searches on Craigslist I came across a set of 215/70/16 Yokohama Geolander a/t-s...

Still have the Cuda fortunately! Just sitting in a garage as a side project for now.

Hello Overlanders! New member #2467 here! My wife and I bought the Forester just over a year ago to replace my 1966 Plymouth Barracuda as my daily driver. I never had any set plans on doing much with it, but after a couple trips and seeing the growing community of offroad subarus, ideas started...

1) Lafayette, CA 2) "Ubaru" - 2006 Subaru Forester X (big plans for the future) 3) New to overlanding but love the outdoors (Yosemite is my second home), taking the road less traveled, and find new places to explore.
