chef_tim Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 I declared my Hatch done a couple of weeks ago, a three year work in progress. I was going to limit work to mantenance and things that broke from abuse etc. Well, I finaly got around to replacing the broken antena and when I jacked it up I discovered bad ball joints and inner tierods, the ball joints I replaced in the begining of this project ( I never replaced the innner tierods). This time I will be using genuine Subaru parts, a little extra money but well worth it!! And so it begins again Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reveeen Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 but well worth it!! I sometimes wonder........................ When good old manufacturing names like TRW and Raybestos are stuffing their boxes with Chinese junk can Subaru be far behind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcbrat Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 I thought the same too until my torsion bar broke but doesn't it all fall under abuse now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s'ko Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 me too... I was telling my wife the about a month ago.. "BRAT is done, OBS check engine light is gone, SVX is running like a top... all is good in the Subaru Fleet" whamm.. crappy EA81 tranny mounts start to rip. Got those replaced with these... thanks to Scottf and while I was down there I notice that my pass side inner boot is off the DOJ and with the stiffer mounts I am getting a slight drivetrain vibration. Ohhh.. and the AC compressor in the SVX took a crap. (sigh) BW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
