Get the popcorn and beverage ready.

I hear ya Larry but I’m content to keep it a roller for my old buddy who’s coming for it. Haven’t seen the guy in a few years but we’re always good with each other no matter how much time has passed since last bumping into each other. And there’s a young lady I think in the next town over who will likely grab those wheels as long as my friend can work it out either at the yard or if she comes up with some steels. As for the brakes and suspension, yeah I sure did give it all considering, but in the long run enough is enough. For reasons I’d rather not go into I sort of need to finish this up and get back to life without wrenches. Look for my EGR thread to bump up soon. Tomorrow I need to extract my old engine and get them side by side and then the big show - drill and tap in the EGR port/fitting. What I need to do tomorrow is turn my back on that piggie and focus on my car. Let’s see what happens. LOL there’s still a heater unit in there I have mostly undone , and the steering wheel just one bolt at the joint and it’s ready to yank , and wait , I think there’s a seat belt , wait what about the .....

I just now found this thread. 98 Forester, left side went dim. Replaced connector, nuthin' changed. Swapped relays, left side worked, right side went dim. Just now got a new relay, everything is fine. Connector was degraded somewhat, probably brought the relay to its end. There is definitely backfeed between the right and left.

Yea, the tire looks better. And then I see all the crap hanging down in front of it, and the function-over-form part of me throws up a bit. You've done a great job of reinforcing/protecting that mount, but it sure didn't take me long to ruin those mounts on my BYB lifted EA82.
