  1. THATS IT.!!!!!!!!!!!! Im making a cobcob/bratilla voodoo set. complete with spike strips, and lowerback pain tool. Scratch the spikestrips, we cant risk damage to those beautifull,German !4's. ill kink the fuel line. off and on so it pesters you more. :lol: I better be nice, I almost needed you,and the brat or outback to yank me out of that water crossing.:cool:
  2. Connie, it should be a simple install, if your roof rack has the cross pieces. on mine, l tossed the parts in a pile and slapped it together. in the diagram i made look at the red. its very universal, if its like my 92 explorer, it would have went on there in 7-10 minutes.:cool:
  3. THANX:grin: its a blast to drive, it scoots pretty good. cant wait till l swap rx gears and swap the wagon d/r 3.9s.
  4. Thanx guys. The funny thing is, that the great match was not planned, just got lucky:cool:
  5. Pretty unlikely, that was my thought. I ,cops, have an exact list. insurance paid. Ill order more.:cool:
  6. YEA,its worth every penny, the size,and angles match the subes.:cool:
  7. SWEEEEET. sounds great. Subpar, probably not alot of RX's in the states, there are a couple in AU. (SELF HIJACK) Oh yea,the water pic in cobcobs backyard is a whole different thread. no embarassing pics. Put it like this, it took 20 minutes and $5.50 at the carwash to suck all the water out. Lesson learned.DONT EVER SAY"IT DOESNT LOOK THAT DEEP". The r-f was over the right headlight,the left rear was was bobbing in the air. rear -r tire on slick moss . the front tires spinning/digging into golfball size loose river rock. 2.5-3 ft drop off the slab. after struggling small steps, l drove out. ///LSD\\\
  8. MCBRAT MADE THESE Thanx mick. heres a better pic. HEREs the bad news...........my car got broke into in my driveway.5 cars intown got hit.lost all the rest of the decals/xtra material. NOBODY else has that material? right? so if l see some, on someones car= 911:dead: ??????????????? what does McBrat think?? jvc cd/ bct8 trunktracker lll scanner tools ect. AMERICAN FAMILY INSURANCE:banana: :banana: theyre great. I got some on the car atleast. but lost the perks that mick generously set me up with.
  9. Rob,did you notice how well the angles matched. It would look great on your hatch!!!!. It would fit perfect.:cool: Well worth the money.
  10. I got this on ebay and love it. Wanted to share. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ROOF-RACK-CARGO-CAR-TOP-LUGGAGE-CARRIER-BASKET-CARTOP_W0QQitemZ230278828063QQcmdZViewItem
  11. Nice score Russ:cool: I was always an EA81 guy,an hesatent to get an EA82,especially turbo., I will eventually do an SJR carbed EJ22 when it goes south. But I am amazed how great my RX runs unusually good. Glad your going to keep it simple on that wagon. My only complaint is I need a dual core radiator.
  12. Are the 4WD wagon springs taller/stronger spring rate than the 4WD sedans? lve read that people try to snag RX springs when ever possable, does this "better spring thing "apply to the 85/86's sedan RX's/gl10's If so How????? This question applies primarilly for the rears, but feel free to share any/all info that you have on springs for all applications. both stock + upgrades ect. II really need to get some stiffer rears (badly), Also, does anyone know why my 85 RX came with NO rear bumpstops at all.WTH?????????????????????????????????????????? Thanks everyone:cool:
  13. Same thing has happened to alot of us. glad you got it fixed Suberdave and a turbone guessed what mine was. :cool:
  14. this happened to me too. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=65335
  15. scott, heres the best source l know of ,this is one main importer,they gave me contact info 4 years ago on getting a 4wd van.in my area. ( bought an 8x8 argo instead) the guy they put me in touch with a man that had his 2 american sons living in japan to purchase/ship for him. they told vans cost more because they CANT piggyback them in a cantainer, like the trucks,because of their shape, but you can get them. some sambars are supercharged( mini blower). l linked to the track/ accessories page, hit their home page to find everything. heres the link. oh and by the way,eventhough l dont own one, l think these in the photo will do good for offroad. http://www.best-used-tractors.com/mini_truck_tracks.html
  16. NOT THE SAME. SUZUKI CARIE,DIHATSU HIJET,SUBARU SAMBAR, ALL MADE BY THIER OWN MFG'S. SPECS ARE VERY SIMILAR FOR THEIR CLASS. sorry for the cap's. Scott, there is a suzuki carrie in use by our place,( v tread mini tractor type tread/no lift.ive seen it go up some pretty steep goat trails with diff locks. The dealer he bought it from in houston mo has a sambar that is supercharged. 5 spd d/r diff locks ,a/c. goes 65 on the hyway, aND YES it will go more places than a lifted wagon. he wont sell it.
  17. Thats the one I was looking for. I appreciate that. Will plan on making sooooooooooooooon.
  18. I was checking on articulation/rubbing and and thought that i would share. on the rear veiw,you can see how well the sjr components function, and do not hyperextend your axles. Im 150% pleased with the rear, but the front camber problem sucks,I purchased these strut towers( mfg. by Another compeditor in the PNW) in used condition from a senior member, DRkrazy,and he was 100% honest in his description,and had the same 3.25 degree positive camber problem. i THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE WORTH $20.00. and I was right about that. I believe (1) degree positive (+/-.05)? is in specs. On mine,the left is +3.24 camber and the right is +2.85 camber. Lesson for the day: the longest distance between 2 points is a bad shortcut. now im needing to get some scotty towers,or make these adustable. Anyway here are some pics,they kind of tell the story. :popcorn:
  19. Man thats nice !!!!!!!,. painting gets easier everytime.I always learn something new each time. BTW,do you need another H-alloy wheel? me gots. free. can deliver to Birm free.:cool: .
