WJM Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 I remember that's a guy on here that has a viscous center diff from a legacy in his loyale, WITH dual range, and with the 4.111 gears...or either it was an 87~89 wagon. It's dark blue with 15" pugs on it. I used search...no success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WJM Posted October 21, 2005 Author Share Posted October 21, 2005 well...i'd just like to know who did it so I can ask some Q's about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 The guy goes by Beefaru. The issue has been brought up before, and he's not sure how it all worked...a subaru mechanic put the box together for that car. If you do find something out, PLEASE let me know. A 4.11:1 ratio in a d/r 5 speed would be THE BOMB for my setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want the center diff conversion information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have U seen it done? I would give my left fam. jewl to know for sure how it's done! I would kill for 4.44's in a D/R 5spd box:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWX Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 he has an RS and an RX box torn apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soobme Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 Right on, so this would be 1st hand info. Are the R&P the same for the RX box and the GL D/R box? Any body? (can't tell I'm desperate can ya?:-p ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJM Posted October 21, 2005 Author Share Posted October 21, 2005 i think the pinons are different on some. I need some parts books and stuff to look at. either way, the phase 1&1.5 boxes are VERY simlar overall in design with the RX and other S/R FT4WD boxes.

ShawnW Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 The ring gears are interchangable. The pinion shafts are not. The problem is from the factory these are a matched set and are curved to one another. Swapping is doable but you need to keep in mind that the gears might not mesh together initially causing the trans to whine and they could wear out prematurely. But really, who cares! I just swapped out the stub axles on my RX Box so this is fresh in my mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanislru Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 I'm hoping that a couple of very close fluid changes with some sort of high pressure trannie fluid additive will deal with the meshing issues. If all goes well then I'll be ordering the 4.44's next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
