What Size Duratracs? I thought they only had one 19" size available in the US (255/55-19). I'm pretty sure this particular size is NOT snowflake rated (the only size Duratrac that is not). Hence the reason I am curious..

Other Subaru Battery Options.. Here are links to a couple of threads I started years ago when I replaced the battery in my '05 Outback.. http://www.subaruoutback.org/forums/80-electrical-electronics/24320-battery-replacement-additional-options.html...

The original chassis engineers may have very well created that 'inherent flaw' intentionally, as a sacrificial link to prevent other damages. There are a lot of those engineered into cars. Remember how cheap that replacement arm was? Just saying.. Anyway, you are taking the car and adapting...

BE careful 'beefing up' components like this. Just remember that next time it may not 'taco' but something else likely will, and that something else may be either a) more critical or b) much more expensive and difficult to replace... I had an '05 Outback, loved it for what it was, but the...

I don't think the heated wheel was available till the LR4, though I've seen threads for guys who retrofitted the headed wheel from a Range Rover Sport to an LR3..

Personally I'd be concerned about reliability if you are using it off road. I have NO personal experience with the LR2, so maybe I shouldn't be posting, and I am surprised to hear so many people touting its off road capability. It is a Car Platform (Volvo S80, which is also the basis for the...

One of my Favorites.. One of my personal favorites (but I am biased)..

Has Goodyear started to offer them in the North American Marketplace in this size? Last time I checked they had not, and TireRack doesn't list it as an available size.. EDIT: Well, it looks like Goodyear is listing this size as availabe on their US website now, so maybe..

Old Shot, but I like it.. Flexing for the camera..

I don't know what your intended use is, if the car is modified or not, etc, etc. Many people run larger tires, making the factory spare a near useless piece of added weight to carry around (since driving on a significantly smaller tire can do serious damage to the awd system). In this case, a...

I know this is an old thread, but I wanted to point out that most (late model at least) Subaru's use Viscous Coupling (VC) limited slips in all but the STi (which uses a Helical Cut Gear Limited slip that is a torque biasing design, but not a branded torsen), I'm not aware of any other Subaru's...

Its a beautiful truck, with a very well detailed and executed build. I sincerely hope you find a buyer that will enjoy it and maintain it as necessary. I mean no disrespect, but the reality is that it is a 2004 Discovery, no matter how well modified, its actual market value won't ever approach...

I know, I'm really digging up an old thread, but I've got to tell you, your post speaks to me, and makes me realize there are others out there as 'off their rocker' as I am, LOL! I've always harbored a love for the Audi allroad, with a 6mt (I really dislike driving automatics, I don't care if...

I vote Subaru as well.. No It doesn't..

Sorry to snap at you Dave, I wasn't in the best of moods yesterday I guess, no harm done..

:Wow1: That's original, thanks for the input..

He might be able to bring it back to the US, depends upon the production date, but many of the earlier production date JDM Defenders are eligible for legal import into the US... http://www.epa.gov/EPA-IMPACT/2006/...ay-26/i8260.htm It must have a production date BEFORE 9/1/97, or it will not...

I think they generally have limitations in the form of approach/departure/breakover and ground clearnace when compared to 'traditional' overland vehicles.. That being said, they are great cars (my wife's daily driver is an '05 Outback), that can take a good bit of abuse, and do alot of work...

Since you own one, can you confirm that it actually has front and rear differential locks? I'm assuming that the press has misinturpreted a center diff lock (locking front and rear diffs together) for actual diff locks (which would still be great ont his class of vehicle), but maybe you can...
