There’s better lifts for the Ascent that use ASCENT style frame spacers, instead of Crosstrek sized frame spacers for our MUCH heavier vehicles. I’d turn to the likes of Rallitek, Anderson Design Fab and Primitive for lift kits. And, for true off-roading, I’d only rely on Primitive Racing skid plates.
Also, the proper way to deal with front end links is NOT the end link extensions in the LP kit. Some people have noticed it hits the end link on tight turns over rough terrain. One person snapped their end link. Another bent theirs. The proper way is a different sized end link or adjustable end links.
