Default 04 WRX Wagon Complete Lift with BFG's and Part Numbers

So I bought a 04 WRX wagon that had some cheap $300 Coilovers on it and being that you pay for what you get, I quickly decided to address the suspension. I live in Northern Michigan so I decided to lift it due to the winters and the amount of off-road trails we have here.

I have searched plenty of posts to find out what I can do and for the most part a majority of the information was there. I ran into issues being that I did not have the stock suspension to cannibalize to put stuff together. Because of this, I had to start from scratch. With this being said, a complete lift with all new parts was $828.12 (Minus Tires).

I opted to use KYB GR2 Struts and Factory Springs that are for a 05 Forester XT. Paired with a set of Lifted Front Sway Bar End Links from Kartboy.

I chose to throw on a set of 215/65/16 BFG All Terrain TA/KO2's since I run them on all of my other vehicles and they fit with no clearance issues.

The ride is smooth and performs well both on and off road. So far I have got to play on Dirt, Sand, Mud, Snow, and Ice. Everything from driving normal, to pushing the limits of the car.

(The Passenger Rear Trailing arm Bracket was Not installed yet in the pictures, this is why the tire sits so close to the front of the wheel well)

The list below gives you the part numbers for each part to assemble a COMPLETE suspension setup.

This is awesome, it looks great! I'm highly considering lifting my 07 2.5i Wagon and putting fat tires on it.
