Ive posted my car on the forum a couple of times, but ive decided to make a build thread instead. Hopefully it'll be a lot easier to keep up with my build as I progress into it. I own a 2000 legacy brighton with 190,000 miles on it. I will upload photos as soon as possible.

Heres the ride! I took these pictures the day I purchased the car, the only thing it came with was the Yakima roof rack.

Two weeks later I discovered I had a torn cv boot, it was spewing oil from the boot everywhere, the knuckle and inside of my wheel was coated in it. I bought a brand new cv axle from autozone for less than $80 and fixed it myself, not to hard at all. And yes I properly torqued the axle nut lol.

Nice find! Free roof racks are the best part of used cars!

Thank you, I totally agree with you. whoever installed the roof rack put the visor backwards to where you cant see the Yakima letters from the front. I thought that was pretty interesting lol

First "mod" since I've owned the car. I installed the famous wink mirror, I bought it because he stock rear view mirror sat to low and I couldn't see over my sons car seat. With the wink mirror I can see clear over it, as well as I have a larger field of view with no blind spots. For only $40 I can't complain. Also I gave the car its first car wash and fixed the Yakima visor so it faces he right direction.

Is this "Alaska Stance"?

Just a little update! My esm 002r's came in today. I've been eyeing these for awhile and finally got a good deal on them. it was a little expensive to get them to Alaska though. Next I'll be buying tires and installing them.
