TheLoyale Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Put the '82 4WD bumper on the '83 Hardtop! I've always liked how this bumper tucks in about 1.5" more than the stock one. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jono Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 and may I ask about the rims ? What are they off and what size tyre are you running on them ? They look like a more modern era rim with all those air vent holes, yet still 4 stud - still 4x140 PCD ???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLoyale Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Their just 14" Peugeot 505 wheels from the 80s powder coated white with Uhtsu FP7000 185/60/14 tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nipper Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 The Justys dash was dim. I replaced all the dash bulbs. They were all working but were foggy or discolored. Now its a nice bright dashboard again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nipper Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Nope just standard old fashioned light bulbs. They do dim with age. the glass gets foggy, contact corrode. Now if i can replace the bulbs in the switches and heater panel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loyale 2.7 Turbo Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 ... Now if i can replace the bulbs in the switches and heater panel.

coxy Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 More like "What did I do "FOR" my Subaru. Went and got a credit line for $2,000.00. Ordered enough parts/pieces to do a total rebuild of an engine, minus what shop work will cost for things I can't do here myself. This had better get the '88 Wagon back to a daily driver status. Sssshhhhh..... Don't let the Wife know I did this. I won't see my next birthday. I don't think it will be that desperate, More like you will be sleeping in the Wagon. Sure beats the doghouse though no fleas. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zombieblues Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 I set the ball joint back into the arm and pushed the 1/4 axle back in. The long wait is almost up! On Thursday I will be replacing the ball joints the struts the brakes and the cv's. I will be derusting and layering truck bed liner in the wheel wells. I might even get to finish ripping out my dashboard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom0 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Started my wagon up tonight! So stoked that it fired up. Gave it 2 winds on a dead battery, put the one in from my sedan and it jumped to life straight away. The to-do list got a little bit smaller. Horrible whine coming from somewhere (probably gearbox !@#$%^) but I'll get the cooling system plumped up and the alternator and dash wired in then try and fix that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where'd you import that from? no regionally it was a Multi port fuel injected 1.8 liter 4WD turbo 5speed hi low lsd did not have to import it, it was originally purchased out of Yakima Washington I am the second owner of the car I purchased it from the original owner about a year and a half ago with a blown head gasket and a bad turbo put a new motor in it new turbo it was fun but not real fun so I decided to go with the EJ 2.2 liter best decision I've ever made Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
