Steve, don't be shocked but by no means am I a car guy ... well I learned from you today about the jack and using a socket to raise and lower it ( wait for it ) thank you and nice lift !
Yeah me 2 first time i see somebody doo this
Yeah i will this method next time on impact and jack.
Shocked....🤣
*Love the content. If the front strut supports start flexing during onramps, weld a triangle (corners snipped off) of plate in the middle of them to stabilize them.*
Steve . While I'm pretty baked rn , did i just watch you fab your own Subie lift Kit 🤔 .. Hell Yeah Brother 🤣😂💪🏽
Out of scrap metal and welded together with a harbor freight welder 💪🏻🇺🇸 haha 😂
Good video 📹 Steve. Different content that keeps my attention.🤔
I can appreciate your hustle.🛠🔩🧰💪 Stay safe bro. Peace!✌️
Common guys, I wanna see Steve Stanford do something Really Special. We just need 4,894 more likes.
Steve you have always been a hard worker and good explaining and showing how a back yard mechanic can do things. It don’t got to be pretty it’s just got to work. Your welder isn’t that bad and if your not welding everyday you don’t need a pro professional one. Keep up the content and keep the bucks rolling in so we have something to watch thanks
Tnx u gave me a better idea than i had. 👏
Thanks for the Jack tip. I never knew that
Yeah no joke thats a great technique
Yeah i see those strut towers blowing out fast with that lift
The struts or the towers themselves? I’m curious why you’d think that
Both
I cant get enough of you realism Steve your the real deal. You do it, say it and send it like it is! Love the channel!!
That’s cool Steve and on the cheap , now some stripes , snorkel and a light bar would be 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. Keep up the great work . Cheers
The thing I really appreciate about this channel is that it's never the same thing 2 days in a row. Great job Steve!
I love it Steve one of my favorite channels hands down. Your a very crafty guy and I appreciate what you do!
Steve just out there sending it with scrap metal and a Harbor Freight welder.
I respect it.
What was up with that opening that was some terrible editing good video regardless
Steve doesn't claim to know everything about editing, he just sends it
@@garyhowell738 agreed and I watch all his videos but if he would have just proof watched it he would have realized that the end was at the beginning that's just sloppy
boostedKTM by the time he’s spent a couple hours editing the video he probably let doesn’t want to spend another 18 minutes watching it start to finish
Make a way to secure the winch in the back, of you roll that thing or get in a crash with it in there loose it could easily kill you or any other passenger
Thank you, i plan on doing a prerunner style pontiac fiero
Preheat with a little propane torch to get the maximum amount of heat to penetration ratio
I thought about doing that with my 120V welder, does it actually work?
OntarioRedneXXX It does actually work. If you are welding thicker material, that’s when it really helps!
Yes
Awsome...just imagine if u had a machine shop...the stuff u would come up with...awsome
for the rear hitch you should get a used hitch and weld it inside the trunk and it will double as a holder for winch while driving
If those blocks are 2 inches your probably closer to a 3inch lift because of the suspension geometry it’s not the same as with lift blocks for leaf springs. But hey who can complain about and extra inch
Can’t wait to see it In action!!!!
Forgot to put 2” in title, ... nothing line DIYing your own fab pars lol
Thanks should be fixed
Good job Steve 👍🏼😎
“Necessity is the Mother of invention” 👌🏼 Having all these odds & ends lying about the yard has finally paid off 😉👍🏼
Very cool budget fabrications, keeps the mind busy in positive ways, way to go!
Send it Steve’s cloutbac
Great original content that has made me want to lift my old Nissan sunny as we have to go farm on Motorbike cos road is 2 rough gonna follow your lead Steve love the simple method big thumbs up and new sub from Thailand 👍🤘
Halfway through the video watching the car teetering on that jack, Wow...just wow. Didnt you have a truck fall off the jackstands awhile back? Thought you would have learned your lesson then.
Get a railroad tie and cut it into square blocks, that would probably be the most solid stable thing under the cars for that gravel driveway.
Broooooo you just saved me a whole lot of trouble!!!! Thank you!!
That’s what I like to hear
Very cool man , id like to take my jeep out wheeing with u guys bet it would be a blast..u know all the good spots around here..😀
I have the same welder it works great with brandname wire
I just found your channel and am seriously invested. I just have to ask, would you hesitate putting this lift solution on a daily driver? Obviously aftermarket lift kits are much more expensive than steel square/rect tubing and I’d love to minimize lift costs while also planning to add coilovers, upgrading sway bars, etc. I have a shop interested in helping out just to see the end result on my ‘09, so just curious if you would feel comfortable/if you would go this same route on a slightly more “valuable” starting vehicle. Love your stuff!
Lol there was a Subaru safety advertisement in the middle of the vid for me😂
you should see if you can mount the winch in the trunk for the rear winch. So if your deep in mud your dont have to worry about trying to get it hooked up to the bumper
Steve you should build a ramp and jump the subie over the hill in your yard 😂
Baby Bruce is looking great 👍
Good deal buddy. Have fun tomorrow. Looking forward to the next video.
I did this on my 2001 nissan sentra with a 3"
Steve put the WENCH IN THE HATCH WITH A HOLE FOR THE CABLE. BUT US ROLLERS LIKE A SQUARE PLATED HOLE !!!!💪
Put a hood stack on that thing
😂
@@senditsteve8206 no hood stack but you better get that exhaust up so it dont get ripped off in the dirty stuff bud
What if you put your winch mount in the trunk then just open the hatch when you need it. It won't mess with your departure angle then.
When are we going to see a turbo on it? Better yet when are we going to see you launch it like you used to do to the Sierra??
Haha no turbo but I’ll fly 😂
It sounds like it has a turbo on it already in some of the videos. Shouldn't be hard to source a WRX engine or Legacy GT and drop it in. The Legacy GT motor should be a straight swap and would make that thing a beast.
How was the CV Axles doing?? in 2 inch front lift.....
Looks good Steve
Thanks
Your the best Steve
It's looking good, love the wheel color man.. strut spacers are not 1:1 lift to spacer height. A 2 inch strut spacer will give 3 or 4 inch's of lift. From camera it looks like the rear got about 4 inches of lift and the front got at least 2 but the car had a really steep rake before you started. I'm curious to see how that holds up wheeling. I bought a spacer lift for my tundra, lifted the front and it leveled out nicely so I didn't even put the rear lift on
Enjoyed this video, it's like we're there handing you tools and not helping a single bit. I'm used to having people around like that
Sendit!
Is it me or did I not see you use any jackstands under the car ? I see you added eventually . For a minute . Looks good but work safe bud you got kids who love you.
He had three stands
Great vid
Mount the winch right in the back of the subie. Then just pop the hatch and throw the cable to yer buddy who’s already standing in the mud. And I never get tired of hearing you say. “Let’s get some jack stands under it”. Which means let’s put a hydraulic jack under it and pump it right to the brink of falling over.
Hey man what size tires you running on your subaru.... I'm doing the same thing to my 2011 outback but trying to figure out tire size
Awesome work Buddy
Try out the new harbor freight welder. Titanium is the brand. Half the size and it welds a much better in my opinion in half the size and weight. Keep up the good content
Pretty cool
Aha this is sick
Is this a video on winches?
What size rims and tires?
Send it Steve and the sketchy Subaru 😬🤣 I fucking love it!!!
Function over looks 🤘🏼🇺🇸
Did you run Into any issues with your suspension geometry after this lift? I have heard that it can give you problems with your cv axles/joints
I would use steel tubes with big washers around the bolts it seems more strong than the square metal it might squish
It’s pretty think metal. I will be keeping an eye on it though for sure. I promise to run this thing hard too
That square stock isn't going to squish. Your talking like 300 lbs. On each block.
I bet you and. Ziptiesandbiasplies use the same welder
Now this is cool content
When he showed it in the parking lot who else noticed the rim in the front is bigger than the one in the back
Same size wheels and tires on all 4 corners 🤔
Amazon sells a 40mm (1.575”) lift spacer for that Subaru $68, it could have saved you a ton of work to just have purchased a set. I respect the effort of building it yourself tho.
But doing it himself saved him money
Cool man!
Thank you definitely took some time haha well worth the end result though
Btw Steve you should do some tool reviews too. I've noticed you use the living shit out of that Milwaukee impact wrench and battery ratchet. I'm thinking of picking up the second gen Fuel impact wrench and it'd be great to hear about someone that uses these things day in and day out. It'd give you content and also help someone looking for an opinion on then, what you like, don't like, would like to see. Doesn't have to be comparative to other tools of the same type, but an in real world type of use.
Nice video Steve..... Ur kids at requesting u useing ur stands
welding a galvanized bolt. yellow smoke for sure. Don't breathe it in.
Why 2 different wheel colors
It needs a roof rack and light bars
👍
Can you fit 35s before buk bog? Lol
I want to buy it!!
You ought to turn the f450 into a tow truck
I dont have the time or patience to do that ill just buy a proper bolt on kit 😅
What up
Hillbilly ingenuity! Oh, yeah, you don't need 5000 likes, you've already done something real special.
I say paint the rims each birth stone color of your months
Lol 😂👍👍👍
Do a old school vw gooseneck new tow rig😂😂😂
Great vid
