  1. If I remember right both EA81s and 82s share a common rear bearing (please remember this is from memory, not what it used to be...LOL) Tim.
  2. That would be were the pin socket is used. Unless you have LOTS of time and patients and might be concidering replacing the ring nut, buy the tool. Money well spent. GD, are you sure your not thinking of the front bearings??? I've tried to find sealed rear bearings to no availe. I do however have after market sealed front bearings in two of my cars. Later, Tim
  3. Those should be about the same as a 205/75/14. They will NOT clear with out a bit of trim or lift. We have those on our 87 Wagon and a 3" lift and there is no rubbing or cutting. Later, Tim
  4. Andy your a hair off. The bearings use a race. That is what gets tapped in. It should not need to be frozen or heated. just use the old races to guide them in and to protect them from tapping. Buy the special tool, it is a "pin socket" if you do a search for that I bet you will come up with the link to one. The rear bearings are so easy it is funny. Do make sure to replace both the inner and outer seal (expressauto.com sells them as a set $48). Later, Tim
  5. Great job!!! That is awesome to see almost step by step, be proud of the work you've put into saving this one. Later, Tim
  6. It all comes down to price. I'd say, just as an observation, that above the $50-$75 each range you are going to lose alot of intrest in them. I'd definately be interested, but price will drive my decision. Thanks for looking into these, Tim
  7. I'm with CD, it will stop lossing AF when the level is lower then the hole. Becarefull of hot AF if you are wiggling the hoses looking for holes. Tim
  8. I'm running a 90 amp XT6 alt on this thing. Sounds like a great idea Mick, I know I can use all the electrical help I can get. Tim
  9. I put the Carter fuel pump on today, it fired up and runs good, I did have to put on a regulator as it was running 5psi. Now the weird part. I wired it in to the existing Pump harnes, when I turn on the turn signel you can hear the pump draw down then back and then down with every blink. Do you suppose the new pump requires that much more power to run or what????? Please try and remember that I am an electrical 3rd grader so keep explanations simple with lots of detail:rolleyes: . I'm also thinking that my after market fans maybe doing the same thing, I just ran them to the existing wireing also. Thanks for any and all help. Tim
  10. Yeah, and filling up a Pizza Hut parking lot with subbys would be tooooooo cooool!!!!!
  11. we're comimg in straight south on I-29. Hopfully with a small crew with us. Oh yeah, Satureday morning, We'll probably be a little early. Tim
  12. The one thing I found when looking into sand blasting is the compressor. You should have as a minimum 125cfm, that is a big compressor. I too bought the cheapy hose in the sand gun and mky little comressor don't have the umph to push the sand out. Tim
  13. All I need is to have an occational update, or an answer to Emails. But when communication stops, then I do get a little worried. I hope he knows the weight that your (Ken) vouching for him carries:) Later, Tim
  14. That's what I'm talking about............http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=14096 If my math is right it comes to about $1100, He still hasn't answered my Email. Any of you left coasters know him personaly??? Tim
  15. I don't see us spending the night. As much as I'd like to, I have a BIG week coming up. :(
  16. I do, two 10" aftermarket fans on the thermoswitch. Works good. Tim
  17. OK I'll jump in here............ 84 Brat = R BRAT 86 Hatch = RUZILLA (a cross between Subaru and Godzilla = Ancient japanise beast with a bad attitude) 86 Wagon = Silver Sow / target 87 Wagon = DRTYGRL 86 Wagon = RADIO (As in Radio Flyer, little red wagon....get it???) 86 Wagon = POS (named by Vicky, not me)
  18. Just unbelievable!!! The blue is gorgious. Scott, just to be nosie, what do you do for a living???? Tim
  19. That's it!!! EA81 intake and carb on an EA82. It works alot better this way then the other way around. Tim
  20. I got this carb from him, probably one of the best deals I've ever got on this board.......Many thanks!!!! Now it is up to you to see what is "not right". Should be easy for most of you :brow: There are a few mor pictures in my album in the marron Ru album, Happy guessing, Tim
  21. Ea82. one on our 87 wagon and one in my 86 Hatch 5spd conversion. Comes as a whole kit for about $225. Tim
  22. LUK brand rocks. Not the cherapest, but far from the most expensive too. I got mine from "dial a clutch".com Later, Tim
  23. They're on the road again, on thier way to meet Eyesore (Tom) in IA. Anybody else humming "what a long strange trip it's been"??? Later, Tim
