Don’t know why so many people are bagging this guy out, he has a great setup, well done, probably been to way more difficult places then most people have in this comment section.
Yep. Exactly. You work with what you have. If it works for him and takes him where he wants to go then it’s fine.
Couldnt agree more

😆😆👍
This was very different. Good on the bloke for being passionate about what he has
Well said mate 😉👍

@@heliarcweldandmachine You sound like hell for company, have to watch our every word. Stinking attitude, great way to repel people.
So many people knocking this bloke for his passion and his car. We all share the same enthusiasm for getting out bush and enjoying ourselves why does it matter what you drive? This bloke probably does more for the 4wd community than all the yobos in thier shitboxes doing doughnuts and skids on the beach which only contributes to the authorities wanting to close everything that the rest of us want to enjoy.
Good on you Andrew and Ronny keep them coming 🍻
Very few people. Almost no one.
Calm down lady.
Eh. His AWD skidding out on every minor incline chews up all the tracks 🤷♂️ not a huge deal it is something to consider
Thank you Ronny for the subielove ! For 3 years now I try to show people through my videos that a Forester or a Subaru in general is an absolutely awesome overland / touring vehicle ! 🔥
And the beauty of it is that you don't have to spend a crazy amount of money to make them even more capable off road.👊
My Foz took me everywhere I wanted last year (10+ countries so far) and if we didn't had this virus mess going on I should have been to Mongolia with it.
Despite that, I still have a lot of plans for my Foz and my future trips !
Stay tuned 🙏
Ive seen your vids, you crazy french guy. love them.
@@Becomingwildman Ahahaha thanks for your support ! 🙏
You doing very well Jordan…
Love your car and vids!
This guy knows his stuff and is pretty pragmatic.
I learnt to offroad in a Subaru Leone and it was a great introduction and you learn to do it right when the vehicle isn't as capable. I can guarantee that if you put Adrian in my FJ Cruiser he'd be unstoppable.
To the clowns giving him sh1t, he's getting out there, and he's enjoying himself, and more importantly, he's helping others to enjoy their vehicles and the great outdoors.
Good job mate.
Ok, the car is not a true 4x4 in the general sense. Traction control looked suss in the early clips....but the guy is passionate, knows his vehicle, and has some nice mods. A lot worse could be said for some other 4x4 owners that think a 4” lift and a snorkel make you invincible....I’m impressed with his efforts.
Technically it is a true 4x4 it has a transfer case with low range and a centre diff lock same as an 80 or 100 just sayin
Matt Australia well if that’s the case mate, an 80 series isn’t a ‘real 4wd’ as they’re constantly in ‘all wheel drive....
actually so is a 100 series
and a 105 series
and a 200 series ..... geez it’s not looking too good for the Toyota LandCrusier fraternity then.
Our Grabd Vitara is also constantly in 4 wheel drive with a. 60/40 split rear/front respectively/
However when we flick it to 4H lock, it has a centre differential that splits power 50/50. Then if you got to 4L it is split 50/50 with a lot lower gear reduction, all done through a seperate transfer case.....exactly thee same as the aforementioned ‘real 4wd’ LandCrusiers ....
So which one is it - are they real 4wd or AWD - if it goes for one it goes for all 😉👍
just sayin’
Tim Moss +1 👍
What does it actually matter what of its an awd or 4wd it goes offroad and takes him where he wants to go, and having a great time while hes doing it.
@@Matthew_Australia Are all Full-Time 4WDs considered AWDs in your world? A locked centre diff doesn't matter at all despite it evenly splitting the torque between front/rear in your books then? Still an AWD? You are arguing over marketing wank.
To be fair to the Subaru drivers out there I did personally witness a Forester make it up Billy Goats Bluff track in the Victorian High Country when it was quite chopped up. A good effort only surpassed by the size of the bloke that managed to fit in the thing. Well over 6 foot tall, I thought for a minute there he was driving it from the back seat like Hightower from the Police Academy Movies.
That's impressive considering I've done that track in a 70 series and proper stuck, just before they close the track for winter, though.
It wasn't a Subaru L series wagon was it? I know a bloke who is about 6'6" that drives one up the high country. Takes it anywhere haha
@@jimmysando99 I'm not sure which model it was. I don't know much about the Subaru models.
@@PatrolAdventuresAustralia Yeah no worries mate, it's just there are not a lot of them out driving them like that. So when you said he was tall it reminded me of my mate! We are from the Briagolong area so it wouldn't surprise me if it was them up billy goats.
you can find a video of a modified SF forester doing it on youtube. its called billy goats bluff in a modified Subaru.
I think this is a great video Ronny and long overdue.
I know there’ll be haters, some just for the sake of it and look - each to their own however these little cars are grey in the right hands. You can’t deny that. Sure they’ll have limits but what vehicle doesn’t ?
For anyone doubting Subaru’s being used off road - feel free to check out ‘Soft Roading In The West’ on YT, he’s a Canadian fella that goes everywhere in his ! He loves it !!!
It’s great to see an ‘everyday’ car ( whether you call it a car, an suv, an AWD or a 4x4 ) featured and letting old mate explain it all for those who may be new to the whole camping / off roaring / overlanding scene.
Not all enthusiasts can afford their dream car, their 200 series with all the gear or a fully modified Y62 or a dual cab 79 with all the bells & whistles - we all buy what we can afford.
And whether it’s a Subaru like this vehicle, or a Mitsubishi Delica van or a Grand Vitara ( like ours that gets us 98% of where we want to go ), as long as their vehicle of choice is getting them out into our beautiful outdoors and letting them get to nice camp spots, who cares ? And even better when you’re not paying off a second mortgage or a $200 lease repayment, it doesn’t get any better than that !
These are a great little car, nice and light and nibble as, will get down tight tracks and into most spots so good to see Ronny 👍
I’ve lost a few good mates lately and it really rams home that life really is way too short to not be enjoying it to the fullest.
This is something I truly am passionate about ..... BIG TIME ! So well done mate to you and it’s owner, bloody fantastic to see 👍👍👍🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Goes to show no matter what car you do or DON’T own, don’t let that hold you back from getting out, enjoying life out on our tracks and seeing our beautiful bush surroundings.
All cars are great in the right hands and if you know your vehicles limits and your own capabilities, then there’s nothing holding you back.
Hopefully, this may help to change some of that bloke brigade thoughts towards what is a 4 wheel drive and an all wheel drive when it comes to sharing tracks.
I'm not Canadian :-) but thank you, sincerely, for the shoutout. You make many great points here. Not all of us can afford - or even truly *need* - a big 4x4. I get to amazing places in my little Forester. Really happy to see one being featured here. For more Forester action in Australia, also check out Ignition Offroad. He built a very impressive 2nd-gen Forester that truly pushes the limits of what can be accomplished in a little Subie.
softroadingthewest sorry mate about the Canadian thing .... I thought some of those beautiful places you visit were home to you - my bad 😆😬 but yes, as someone who watches all your clips, I am rather inspired to see a smaller non traditional ‘4WD’ getting out and amongst it 😉👍👍👍
Great stuff mate. Just watch those snatch straps and windscreens won’t you 😆👍
@@4WheelingInNSW Haha, no worries! I love our neighbors to the north. For my part, I don't know the difference between WA and NSW, so there you go. :-)
@@softroadingthewest 😆👍 legend mate, love your videos too - keep up the great work. Great your daughter is getting out a bit more too wth you, can’t beat father daughter bonding time. Top stuff champ 👍🇦🇺🇺🇸

We all have fun :) and check out Australian Rural Adventures, he has great off road Subi action as well :)
Something different, I like it. Sometimes it gets boring looking at the same thing all the time
th-cam.com/channels/N-72IwFJU5wj5h8eiAH2jA.htmlvideos
to be fair this is probably the best rig run down you have done, this blokes a walking dictionary
Good to see a Subaru Forester XT on the channel! Very underrated car!! I love both my Foresters na and turbo model! One is for off road and one is a street car
“I snatched a few 80 series’ out”
Ronny: “okay”
If there is no video or photos it did not happen.
😂😂😂
Brent Bovell my old foz has 1.5 ton towing. Still not enough but Yeahh
I seen a suki vitara pull a 100 series out and a gu patrol so yea i dont doubt it + he said he mainly does beach driving .... mostly just a pull ( Push ) start lol .... stuck in the mud hell yea i'd doubt it
you can snatch out much much larger vehicles with a smaller vehicle, the trick is the snatch flexes and does the work lol
The intro was just pure comedic gold 👍😂👍
It's so cool seeing someone like Adrian being so passionate about a off road vehicle that is so left field of what everyone else is running that suits his needs, and as I have always said there are no such things as bad 4wd's just bad drivers.
Again another brilliant video Ronny mate 👍😀👍
This car has a wrx engine/turbo and it's tuned, and has good off road capability.
would do really good on sand too.
it's like a rally car that u can rally in and daily :)
That engine is standard in an XT Forester.
5.5 to 100kph. Not quite a Ferrari, but we can do dirt. So better.
Serious 4x4's can crawl rocks at 2km an hour. Fun for some. Unless you are an owner of a Forester XT. We view fire trails as time trials and 80kph is the minimum to get anywhere both paved and unpaved.
However that could just be me.

Impressive Forrester and a great ambassador for Subaru!
He really isn't.
@@deadpenitence why?
@@0whc I've seen him drive up close.
@@deadpenitence interesting. What happened? He seems to know his Subarus regardless
@@0whc awkwardness and unnecessary damage. He knows a lot on paper, yes. Unfortunately he uses that knowledge a lot in Subaru groups to spread doubt and discontent. Openly discourages people building their cars because the proposed mods are illegal/dodgy, despite his build being both. He touts his offroading classes as the best way of learning, however his choices in line, approach and speed are questionable at best (in my humble opinion). He's less of an ambassador and more of a gatekeeper. I'd know, I used to be a mod for one of the groups he's most active in. He's well respected in the tea and scones Subaru circles, and honestly he should stick to that.
I like how enthusiastic and knowledgeable this guy is about his vehicle. Something a little different from all the over kill 4x4s we see these days.
One thing i've learnt as a mechanic, is that the Subaru is the most underrated vehicle in Australia. Super reliable and capable, symmetrically balanced driveline and comfortable to drive. Don't forget once upon a time they were a champion rally car. The funny thing is, the people bagging Subaru's out have big 4 wheel drives that will only ever take them to 2 wheel drive campsites towing a caravan or camper trailer. This Subie will go to 90% of the places that most people go anyway. So who's the silly one? You deserved the gag Ronny LOL. Keep up the great content mate!
Light weight, really affordable, dual range, LSD's and a locking center diff make these very daily drivable cars great for camping, touring, and exploring sandy tracks.
I feel that people are misreading the intention of buying a car like this, it's not a $60k troopy with 35's and a 4"' lift. Its a car for someone who wants to go camping and do some light four-wheel driving on a budget with the added daily drivability that makes these cars so popular. These are actually quite capable vehicles due to their lightweight and AWD system. Comparing them to a lifted Patrol or Landcruiser is a bit stupid, but they are surprisingly capable in reasonable scenarios.
I own the pre-facelift SG, non-turbo and manual, and its a fantastic car... these clips don't do these cars justice...they love the sand due to their weight and when modified correctly can be very capable. Have a look on youtube or Instagram for some other more off-road focused builds for some better clips.
Great effort to the bloke in this video, you can clearly see how passionate he is about his car. Thanks for the episode Ronny!
used to own an outback 2001 and super surprised where that thing went and still made it home.
it teaches you MOMENTUM which some people never learn
I've been waiting for a subbie episode for ages
Loving these creative intros Ronny! This one is best yet!
Had a 1991 GL series years ago and the thing went everywhere, through river crossings with water upto the windscreen, sand, rutted tracks etc probably helped having bare minimal electrics in it... absolute tank!
an absolutely awesome and well thought out build. A top video! Well done Ronny..
19:06 great bit of snark from Adrian about the air compressor and pretty cheeky comeback about the size of the tyres 😂 love it! All these heroes bashing the guy probably should get their rig featured on Ronny's channel.
Seems like Ronny quite enjoyed listening to the build and the amount of detail that went into it... I like it that he didn't really talk until around 23 minutes in and as a complete newbie i learned a lot out of his questions and Adrian's answers than i would have just looking at some 'fully sick' build..
People tend to forget that we all have different levels of needs and requirements wrt vehicles. First time 4x4 in my 4wd Duster was way more intense than in my Triton with difflock and low range and it taught me way more about terrain reading.
"STI bottom end and factory head," that's Subaru owner for "it spun a bearing"
bottom end knock, quite typical, it's not uncommon to see workshops with 5 - 10 broken EJ engines that all had bottom end knock.

@@elsimmo75 that's sick
@@oldfashionedwrx3574 he goes alright hey. Check out the $1000 track wide 14km in two days
Awesome setup. I had a bog stock '03 Outback and was constantly surprised how well it went offroad. For fire trails and forest roads, these things are amazing. There's almost always a cheat track around the hard stuff.
Heck yeah! Something different! Love a subie.
Love this video Ronny, innovative and super clever diy mods like these are fascinating and an inspiration to those wanting to enter this world without the budget for a big brand 4wd fit-out. Please do more videos like this with people who modded there own vehicle in unique ways!
Well I’ll go against the grain here. Great vid Ronny and awesome to see Adrian proud of his vehicle rather than some others that stand there like a spoon next to their gq replying “yeah it goes alright” to every question cause the car was built by a mechanic. Sure, this car is not my cup of tea and I would not take it where I take my 4wd but fuck me, no skin of my nose if Adrian loves his forester.
Great to see passionate people in the 4wd/awd community.
"4 O'Clock in the afternoon your water is nice and warm" Me: Laughs in Scottish
Poor old Ronny didn’t get a word in on this video.
Man i couldn't watch
It was an interview style, he handed the reigns over as it wasn't his vehicle to talk about.
Yeah Mate , hats off to this gentleman for what he has achieved .
great intro Ronny!
Yes been waiting for this!
Love it ! thank you for this informative video
Great video as motivation to get out there with whatever vehicle you have and just enjoy yourself.
Awesome Subaru mate great to see something different!
Hahahaha, greatest intro so far, great Subaru too
Just keep them coming Ronny
Greetings from Serbia
OMG, that was a bloody hilarious start!!! Only 0:21 into the vid, gotta give it a thumbs up!!!!!
Nice interview. I've recently put some good A/T tyres and sump bash plate on my Outback. Looking forward to doing some touring with it. They are quite capable vehicles off road if they have low range gearing.
Great to see articles about different vehicles ,Grant
Well said mate 😉👍
I enjoyed the video and the guys passion. I had a 97 liberty wagon in NZ standard and for what it was worth was good when I used to get out to a lot of hiking tracks. Miss that Wandoo country.
My mate had one of these. We done it up for off road as a joke but actually came to love it. Great fun and actually has better clearances then you think due to no diffs and shit hanging down.
Also if your fast enough they skim across water very well.
Been waiting for this
nice touch, cool video!! Cool Machine too. Greetings from NZ!!!
Very cheeky Ronny. Almost a bit of Ivan Milat and Bradley John Murdoch. Lucky he didn't have a moustache, you might have been in real trouble. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great to see a Subi on the channel! We built several "Scubarus" to drive underwater in the local river. Huge snorkels chem welded to the carby, exhaust snorkel, holes drilled in the floor so it would sink properly, scuba tank with masks and partially waterproofed electrics including distributor and coil. Non-interference heads meant when you did eventually (inevitably) drown it, pull out the spark plugs and off you go. Was an absolute pisser! We also took a bog stock one (prior to being turned into scubaru mk7) to Dargo via the bush tracks thinking that it wouldn't make up some of the tougher tracks with 5 blokes on board. Only needed a push once (with a patrol bullbar) but that was more the road tyres than the vehicle! Great little cars.
Wow do you have pics/video of this??
@@procrastinator1842 I might somewhere, this was close to 10 years ago though so will be on an old HDD if anything. I'll have a look and see what I can find!
man there is some salty people in here don't be jealous you didn't get picked for a modified episode
😆😆🤔 true mate, agree 100% 👍
Love Subaru’s, owner must really love them, that’s a lot of effort he has put into it, reminds me of the passion of Landrover Defender owners.
Subarus are really good on gravel, dirt, sand and snow. If you’ve got a family and are just looking for a vehicle to get you putt on the weekend, they’re great!
Lol, that was funny. Good for you Ronnie keeping an open mind. The subaru is a great off road vehicle but it will not go on the extreme 4x4 tracks. Which makes the subbie good enough for me. Different strokes for different folks.
I love how he talks to Ronny like he is an amateur lmao.
Aye noticed that dude is stating the obvious too.
well hes amateur on subarus i guess
This thing is actually small compared to some around NSW... And nippy your 100 correct
Absolutely mate, glad I wasn't the only one thinking he was talking to ronny like it was ronnys first rodeo
He has to go over the basics for the viewer of the video, not Ronnie.
Loved the start, the kidnapping act! Just brilliant mate! Fucken awesome! I very much love how Adrian defends his Subaru!! I would do the same! Big-up!
🤣🤣👌 hilarious intro. Love it.
For the fun matters, this has to be the be the best episode. 👌😂
Good to see another subaru fan. But i did eventually go a patrol for the rough stuff
You can also get auto lockers for the rear diff on these. Makes a massive difference in low traction environments. Cheap mod too.
Metro and a boy scout... best show to date... your all legends... love this country
@Ronny Dahl I think you could make a very informative video running a bunch of different vehicles (modified and stock) through a series of different test and finding where the limits of each are. e.g. increasing depth of ruts, approach, departure and ramp over obstacles, articulation, climbing dunes etc. I think it would educate a lot of misguided people who believe that one setup is always better than others and make for a very interesting video. I would happily nominate my Subaru for the test for the modified Subaru category. In the Subaru world is considered by most to be the most capable all subaru offroad vehicle in Australia and would give the 79 a run for its money in a lot of situations.
I Second this! This guy Knows how to wheel ;)
I've ditched my 06 Forester for a 90 series diesel Prado. While the Forester would get me most places I'd want to go for camping and has been a fantastic vehicle, the fuel range is something that can't be changed easily. 159L factory tank in the Prado expands the possibilities.
Which one is more capable offroad?
@@julski007 rear end of the 90 series Prado flexes really well, and can run a lot bigger tyre. Combined with a lockable centre diff and you have true 4WD, and that's before you add lockable front and rear diffs.
Very very smart, he thinks everything through.
Went mudding in high school in an 88' Subaru Justy. It drove circles around F150s my friends were driving in the mud pits. They're okay
Love this bullbar!
Great video
I bought a new 1982 Subaru wagon. I was great. $8,200 with air con. did over 325,000 kms . Ayres rock and everywhere. If it was on the market now and would really have to look at buying it again. Very simple , easy to service, very reliable . I can't understand why cars now are so complicated and less reliable. I can understand the saying.." The good old days"
really enjoyed this video Ronny. I loved seeing the other side of 4x4's too
it still flexes better than a 79 😂
BUt not a 200 or a prado
So what's its payload

Yes nice to see a Suby so passionately presented - I have long ago (10 years) graduated from a Suby, but when it was my "Sleipnir" (google it) I regularly accompanied a Toyota 75 series and a Land Rover on countless extended camping trips through the Victorian High Country, and in all seasons. Driving a Subaru offroad is honestly all about "TECHNICAL DRIVING" but irrespective of that it was in the snow that the Suby absolutely excelled when compared with the Toyota and the Land Rover - Subies love snow play, HOWEVER what ever you drive - know your vehicle's strengths and weaknesses, exploit them and respect them, in that order, you wont break them and you'll have a bonza time out there.
Great vid, lol at start scene...
The front bar on this one looks like a copy of the factory one so suits the vehicle nicely....
I had an 05 XT 5 speed and I thought about going this way but I realized very quickly wasn't going to do what I wanted without basically ruining it and even then it was iffy. Sold it and bought an 80 series. Im impressed the low range box can handle the EJ255. Wish we had that option ever in the US.
That’s Subaru brother for the detailed explanation. I own Subaru Forester but I didn’t even know the basics. Please do more videos on newer foresters
Last year I went to one off our national parks, they only allow 4×4 vehicle. I knew this but I courageously drove until I reached the entry gate, the park officer was like hey we don't allow small vehicles here we only allow real 4×4s. Then hesitantly he started writing down the entry details and asked me what car is this by the way?
I said it's a SUBARU FORESTER he was like oh a subaru! Please go ahead and enjoy self just take care. I happily enjoyed my day with my fozz and it was cool drive🚙
Good show guys
Nice Video! ✔️✔️✔️ It is interesting to see this video after your AWD vs. 4WD video some month back too as you gave a lot of resistance against down-talking AWD's for off roading. Overall many facts in this & like our Adventra AWD's they are just another type out there like the Subaru AWD's. --- The big question though is Ronny where you surprised by anything capability wise that vehicle could do you wouldn't have expected it to be able to? (besides snatching several 80 & 100 series out LOL)
that was the best intro ever. almost died laughing
God there is so much salt in here.
Cheers for the video, ronny. It's cool to see other shit!
@@Matthew_Australia 😂
Love the intro.
Hahahaha best intro ever! 😂😂😂😂
good work and hats off to the bloke for giving it his all - all i can say is good luck trying to find the next owner who would put value in all the add-ons to pay a premium for effectively a SUV. Can only think the 4x4 he'd have for the same investment that any 4wd purchaser would appreciate and pay extra for
Ronny I love your channel mate, but you slept on Subaru's. I lifted and armored my '09 Forester and have thousands of western USA deserts and Mountain trails under her belt...And I'm from Brooklyn, NY!!!! All I can say, Ive passed more broken Jeeps and Jeep parts on trail than i can count. Cheers! keep em coming!
LOL luv the start
Had forester, same year, but 2l petrol . It is a good car, the issue is with load capacity. For 1-2 people is fine is you pack light.
I know it wont be done, but I wish Ronny would do a review of a modified 2017 or later Cherokee Trailhawk. I had a 2 in lift in my old one, on 31in Duratracs. Its got brake lock diffs front and rear, a rear locker, a proper low range, and all kinds of protection underneath, although I had to add sliders to the slides. It was quite comfortable inside too.
Aside from trails that require more height than I had in it, that thing went anywhere the modded rigs went, and most often without having to use the locker as the brake lock diffs acted like a more effective limited slip right away. You didnt see this kind of wheel slippage at all. And a lot less when I engaged the rear locker.
Its not as roomy, but it was also damned good on the highway too.
The turbo is nice, seems like it really helps give the tires extra pointless zing when they lose traction.
Kidding. This makes me miss my forester despite my current 4x4 being awesome.
Ronny does a runner 🤟🤟
You were so funny in this intro hahahahaha
This is 4wd maturity and knowledge, without the wannabe grunt of the current trend.
Well said mate...haters will be haters simply because its doing well off-road and they don’t think it should.
This guy seems like an awesome guy. Love the Subaru setup.
Are you his mum?
Hey Ronny, when are you going to do a collaboration episode with Russell Coight?.... or at least do a modified episode on his truck.
There's something to be said about someone who does more with less and really pushes the boundaries of a vehicle to it's limits and beyond, and gets results, well executed......
I did not know, Angus Young is also making chargers 😂
Fun to see a Subaru on modified!
Drove my 2008 Subaru Liberty out of a flooded grass car park. A Land Cruiser needed towing out.
Next time put your hands on lifted miata / mx5 :)
I've seen few modified subaru here in Poland and i must say i love them, because it's all about going outside, and our cars are just helping us with it.
I have problems fitting stuff to my 110 defender, grats to guy for fitting so much usefull stuff to this car.
HELL YEA, I had a 04 SG and loved that thing. I started modding it before "off roading a subaru" became popular in the states, and there were very little mods to be had. I was always jealous of the Australian ones as they had the manual trans with dual range gear boxes and locking diffs. I sold that SG and the idiot that bought it ruined it. Loved that Fozzy.
All of this fits nicely in all those AWD cars
That was my thinking. If I could get a modern Subaru with centre diff lock, I’d use it for offroading. By because of CVT and no centre diff lock I ended up buying a 1998 LC 105R for travels and keeping my 2019 forester as daily driver.
Great video Ronny good on you for testing a special Subaru on Modified's, Tercel next ??
Looking forward to an Eneos Grenadier video
The few downfalls he spoke about. Computer. Relocate it to a higher position. Maybe improve door seals. For sure put on a snorkel.
Over all. This is a bad ass ride. I’d drive it!
Love how ya started the vid. I was LMAO at y’all!
🤣🤣🤣 Subaru oke realy caught some feels from your previous AWD v 4WD episode
