Replace Clutch Cable 88 GL


Recommended Posts

Hey ya'll looking to replace my clutch cable and I'm seeing two different sizes when I look up the part. 33.5" and 36" will both sizes work for the 88 GL?  I don't want to take mine off and measure...looks like it's at the end of its life.  If anyone knows which size or if either would work lemme know.

how do we get one if the dealer thats local doesnt carry 80s subaru parts?

 

Few of them have our stuff on the shelf, but they all should be able to order it for you, particularly if you have the part number. 

 

There are numerous dealerships with online ordering as well.

Dealers carry very little in general. Most parts even from the 90's must come from the warehouse.

 

Find the part number on "parts.subaru.com" and ask them nicely to order the part for you. If you can't find it there ask here. There are people with parts manuals.

To back what GD has already said- "Don't." We are truly trying to save you the trouble of doing it twice. 

 

I didn't listen the first time either........ :D
