Well kind of a long story, but back in July, my subaru that was my dd went down due to head gaskets, rod knock, and a spun bearing probably from the low oil pressure and shit. So I sold that and was dding my 6.4 for a while, while looking for another daily. Originally wanted an 11-14 WRX but I was to picky and all the cars I liked fetched a premium. Decided I didn't want a huge payment and after driving a mustang and looking at some older subies I kinda gave up and was actually looking at leasing something cheap just to drive. Was browsing dealer lots, found this one ironically at a subaru dealer while looking at subies. mulled it over for a week, knowing I always wanted one and it fit my plan of getting into something cheaper so I can start looking at campers for the spring and maybe build my truck and ended up buying it.
It has its quirks, but most 15 year old vehicles will. It's a 2001 with 145k on it. One owner, non smoker, garage kept it's whole life, which was in the Mechanicsburg PA area. Clean carfax as well so it was kinda hard to pass up. From what I was told it was a factory special order because it has some odd options. It's an LS, but has leather, full console, and all the power options, auto dimming mirrors, onstar, but also the tow package and a 5.3.
Needs cgm treatment badly as it's super grandpa right now but need to fix my truck first and figure out if the squealing on the Tahoe while driving is the belt or the ac compressor. Idler and tensioner pulleys I put new in today so it isn't those.
A little long winded but that should cover it. Haha

It is but I daily'd 4/7 for 9 months. I know where I can an can't go with it. Plus with the 24s it's basically lifted a few inches due to taller tires. So it'll sit like it did with 22s on it

Kinda. But I'm doing all the work so it's not like I'm really spending any money. A few maintenance parts, drop coils and a notch kit. I have everything else

I'm tired of low, truck is currently in process of swapping stock spindles back in and taking 2 inch drop shackles out the rear and replacing with 1 inch lift shackles. Fuck bumpsteer, fuck scraping, fuck no turning radius. 3 years im done lol
Removed the rear bumpstops, new front upper balljoints, 2" drop spindles, Brakemotive DS rotors and hubs, new wheel bearings, new 1.75" front spacers, and a lot of clearancing.... Lol and a warsh on le dailydime.
When I bought it last year, and now.

My figuring is the truck at 5/8 on 295/30/24s will sit the same as it did 285/35/22s at 4/7. Tires for the 4s are an inch taller. When I had them on before that inch was noticeable.....that's what she said.
So hopefully I won't have to retub the rear. The front tubs worry as I was already rubbing at 4/7 on 24s. But we will see. Lol
