Welcome @MotorsargeT! The new Crosstreks are very nice. I think it’s great that Subaru made X-mode an option on the latest gen but I’m still confused about what they have against HP haha.

Welcome, nice color!
I believe there are several companies doing lifts for these. LP Adventure is even being installed by the dealers in some areas, financed and possibly not voiding warranty!

I work for a Subaru dealer and we are actually working on being a distributor for L.P. Adventure. My Crosstrek might be the dealer guinea pig! If you look close the air deflector on the roof rack has their logo!

I was just at a dealership last week that had an LP Outback in the showroom... and so begins my short rant haha. I’ll start by saying that I’m a fan of some of their products and that’s why they’re on my car. My issue with them is that there’s no imagination. This is evidenced by the dealer models and the fact that soooo many people order the same exact parts. Literally rubber stamps of each other. I’ve always appreciated unique things and that’s part of the reason I lifted an Outback but it’s absolutely the reason I did everything my own way. Nothing against the stamps because they’re nice but I appreciate seeing everyone’s style built into their Subaru’s.

Hi everyone - just heard about the Subaru registry and wanted to say hello and introduce myself and Oscar (2018 Outback). Oscar's fresh from the dealer so has had no mods yet - but have a long laundry list of things I'd like to change/improve ... hoping to make new friends and also get some advice/input on what to do and what to avoid ...

Well said! Many people are perfectly happy just buying from a catalog and letting someone else turn the wrench.... It sure can be easier and less headaches, but "rubber stamped"!

Looks good. And the LP dealer part would be cool also.
 
Hello gang I'm new I've got a 2018 Crosstrek I plan on lifting and upgrading to all terrain wheels and tires. Here is my rig so far Ill get a better pic tomorrow.View attachment 64689
How do you like your hitch? I just ordered one for mine. I liked that it had bigger loops for safety chains and mounting tab for the wiring harness.
 
Cool man. I’m going to an event in October. Northeast Fall crawl.

Still not sure if I'll be making that or not. If its a big as I imagine it'll be I hope they break it up into groups. Thats how we've run them in the past.

I am a member of the Bay Area Chapter, but because we have sooo many chapters here in Cali, I also watch Gold Country, Sacramento, Fresno, Jefferson State, etc. All of the chapters Im willing to drive to for fun!

There are a few of us in Mtn Roo NE and Mid Atlantic. I'm one of their newer members. A few weeks ago we did a trail ride through the NJ side of the Delaware Water Gap national park. You can check my build thread for some of the pics.
