Thanks!
Thinking about selling the Commander. It's a clean car, I don't think ever off road. Nothing wrong with it, thinking a Tacoma might be a better match for me. What I'm trying to come up with is a...
I measured it earlier this evening, the front was 1" higher. it seems consistent on both sides. I had all the old suspension parts in the cargo area when I measured. I hope that was causing the...
I'll check out the "how to" for sure.
Btw, I picked up the Commander today. I haven't measured yet, but I'm pretty sure it is sitting higher in the front. Will it settle out in a week or so? ...
How tough is the pinch weld mod? A few weekend ago I got a dose of reality with the attempted strut install. It totally kicked my ass trying to get them off. I ended up taking it to a shop to get...
I just had an OME HD springs shocks installed and Spidertrax 1.5" wheel spacers ready to go, so now my attention is fully focused on tires. I have dreams of wheelin but with my location and the...
Thanks guys. I will be placing an order soon.
Any difference in the brands for the top plate? Looking around online I'm seeing them produced by Moog, Monroe, Raybestos, and KYB. I'm not sure if those kits include the lower rubber spacers or...
I hope to install my OME coils and struts in the next few weeks. Should I buy a new top plate and rubber spacers? I figured one advantage is being able to have an assembled front unit so the...
I might be interested.
Are these thick enough to use 265's? Most people seem to be using 1.5".
What size is the new tire? Dwarfs your stockers.
Anyone know if the medium springs sit any lower? I look to be ordering soon and not wanting a reverse rake any more than the current rake.
One reason we wanted Certified used is so we can get an extended factory warranty, we have a 8yr - 80K. Now that I'm looking to put a lift on it I called around to all the local dealerships asking...
Thanks for the replies.
Actually I'm more worried about too much lift than not enough. For tires I'm considering 265/60/18 Cooper Destination AT3 or Goodyear Silent Armor. I don't want the tires...
Followup to an old thread. Happy to report no new issues. The first few months were pretty rocky and we became a bit concerned but after that it has been trouble free. ...crossing fingers that...
I'm looking to get the OME Coils and shocks for my XK, but I'm not sure which load to get. I do have the hemi, but I don't have any plans for heavy fabricated bumpers, winches, or roof racks. I...
I called a local dealer about extended warranties for pricing info. This fella was over the dealership and while his dealership didn't offer certified used at this time he said he was a big...
Great looking Commander! Seeing photo's of rigs like yours makes it harder and harder to putt off the lift and tires for ours.
Well, I'm crossing my fingers that we got all the issues out of the way because we do love this truck. Only time will tell. Thanks for the reply. :)
I picked up an '08 certified used commander with 32K miles this spring. Since then, we have had a number of small problems.
Bad Key
On the way home we went to switch drivers and found the 2nd...
I know the Legacy grew significantly in 2010, but I'm shocked you had so much issues with your '09 for room. I used a rear facing seat in both my '04 WRX and later in my '10 STI (both are Impreza...
Nice video's, thanks for posting! My hat's off to you, not sure I would have the confidence to go down that trail.
When you broke your halfshaft, did you go back stock or are there any upgrades...
Cool, another Suby and Commander owner. I'm a big fan of the Outback's, I nearly got a 2010 3.6 Outback over my STI. Both are nice though.

Thanks everyone. I thought maybe when it is times for new tires to upgrade but I would have to measure to find it is still...
