YnotDIY Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Hey ya'll back again (it's been so frequent this week)...anyway... I'm looking to replace the bushings for my shift linkage (the rubber and nylon ones). I've been through page after page of DIY mods on here, but I'm really just looking for part numbers 88 GL 4x4. I could have sworn last week I ran across 2 different posts with the part numbers on them, but I can't find them and like a total idiot I didn't save them...they are somewhere lost in the web I guess...When I go to parts.subaru.com and put in my VIN nothing comes up....I went to the subaru dealer and they gave me 3 different print outs and told me to basically figure it out and call them back (lame)...so I'm hoping someone here can point me in the right direction...also wanting to replace the shift return spring...which I think is called the accelerator spring (pretty sure i saw that on here somewhere). Any advise would be great. thanks T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YnotDIY Posted February 25, 2017 Author Share Posted February 25, 2017 Might have solved my own problem finally able to get that website to cooperate....I think these are the links I need. could someone look through and let me know? http://www.subarupartsandaccessories.com/a/Subaru_1988_DLGLGL10RSRXTURBOGL-WAGON/__6027050/MANUAL-GEAR-SHIFT-SYSTEM-MT/A10-350-A1.html http://www.subarupartsandaccessories.com/a/Subaru_1988_DLGLGL10RSRXTURBOGL-WAGON/__6027051/MANUAL-GEAR-SHIFT-SYSTEM-MT/A10-350-A2.html http://www.subarupartsandaccessories.com/a/Subaru_1988_DLGLGL10RSRXTURBOGL-WAGON/__6027053/MANUAL-GEAR-SHIFT-SYSTEM-MT/A10-350-B2.html Also, I think this is the schematic for the dual range right? http://www.subarupartsandaccessories.com/a/Subaru_1988_DLGLGL10RSRXTURBOGL-WAGON/__6027039/MANUAL-GEAR-SHIFT-SYSTEM-4WD-DR/A10-350-C1.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEECHBM69 Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 The bottom link is correct for the dual range. The the 5 spd part of the shifter linkage is the same from 2wd, to 4wd which is why the top lists aren't designated as such. I know it's winter in Michigan, but you should be able to look at what you have from underneath to see where the play is, correlate it to the diagram and get what you need. This thread (http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/topic/130239-gl-ea82-5spd-shift-linkage-bushing/?hl=%22shift+linkage%22) has a picture at the top showing the pins that will need to be removed to get the linkage apart. Small one first, then the bigger one. Reverse makes it easier to get to if I remember right. My car wasn't rusty, and I had to beat the snot out of it to get it apart after the pins were removed. Good luck! Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YnotDIY Posted February 25, 2017 Author Share Posted February 25, 2017 Alright thanks, I'm excited to rip it apart and see what's going on. I'll post results when I have them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
