Was up ya'll I have been talking to Rally Innovations about

I have answers to the questions that I asked Rally Innovations earlier this week
What material are these Rally Bars made of? Mild Steel
>
> Where would these Rally Bars bolt on? Lower bumper beam or sub frame.
>
> Would it be possible to make them with 1/2" tubing? I believe you
mean 1 1/2" tubing. Yes it is possible but we would rather use 1 1/4" for production.
>
> Would it be possible to combine the Impreza Skid Plate Bar with the
> Forester Rally Bar? (people keep asking for a skid plate) If we go with the Forester style bar, then a skid plate may be possible.
>
> Is there a weight limit for the front end where the Rally Bar bolts
on? We've tested 4 lights or 8 lbs. Extra reinforcements can be
customized.
>
> The price you gave me of $269 + $50 (for different color) would not
> include shipping but how much do you think shipping will cost?
Shipping will vary from $35-$45 depending on region. We're in CA, so
$45 would be for the east coast.
>
> You said it would probably cost $50 for a different color, what other
> colors do you believe will be offered and do you think chrome is an
option (like the truck grill-guards, or the roll bars on the Baja)? We have several shades of Dark Gray (Gun Metal) and Silvers. Theses are the most common, but please inquire. We will only run one custom color at a time, so it's important to pick a common color.

Listen People yall that are wanting them to produce the Rally Bars for the BAJA need to Vote at:
http://www.rallyinnovations.com/forums/ ... .php?t=176
and put in their input on the subject; if we don't give them enough input they will not produce these bars and we will be "S.O.L." and it will end up costing more to buy a universal guard and get custom brackets made which will cost about $350-$400 where Rally Innovations Rally Bar (bolt-on) will cost $269 in black+($50 for different color)+$35(West Cost)-$45(East Cost) for Shipping

I think I could make it fit! I would mount it on the front side or on top....My vote is for the Forrester style, but I had problems regisgtering for that Bulliten Board.baja03 wrote:That is a good Question but I dought it because i don't think there will be enough space between the bumper and bar, I will ask to make sure though.

This is the answer to your question from Rally Innovationsdavecoon13 wrote:If they were to make the Forrester style one for Baja, and I got it, do you think could I mount a small electric winch onto it?
"The answer to that question would be "no" for the production bar. The
bar can handle a push force, and maybe a minor pull force, but for what
purposes the winch is going to pull, it's highly unlikely."

Here is the most recent Email i have received from Rally Innovations.
"They can order the bar directly from us. We will be starting a group
buy next month when it is ready.
The lights tested, PIAA or Hella 500s should not rub. Others may.
The 03-04 Outback legacy share the same front end and mounting points.
I have not verified it it goes back to 02."
Here is what I asked:
How do they go about ordering the Rally bar?
Do the lights rub the bumper?
This rally bar should work on the Outback, and legacy right cause
aren't they all the same unibody frame?
