be careful with this. i have driven/towed on old and dryrotted tires. you can get by with them. but my experience with old nylon tires is if you air them up good and all the way they blow apart or rip out. air them up enough that they roll and dont wallow around, but keep the psi's within 28 or 30 lbs, dont air them up too tight. take a good look at the sidewalls on each tire. it wnt hurt to have a good known tire as a spare. if you tow on a dolly, and you pop a tire, put the bad one on the front and move a front to the back and keep rolling! if you have 2 spares, put them on the back of the vehicle in tow as the front wont matter on a dolly use a comealong with a chain if the winch is too crappy

I am going out for this XT6 http://flint.craigslist.org/cto/1529874943.html At first the deal was i trade my 92 fwd legcy even up, but dude needs just 300 , i offered 350 just to be fair, he needs the car gone ASAP i havent seen a picture, but you cant beat the price. this lets me sell out of my 88DL to my downstairs roommate, and the legacy to sell to my napa parts guy. this would be my daily driver, put in a clutch and go!

ANY old subaru will have the same bolt pattern, but ONLY old subarus will. 4x 140mm is the bolt pattern. only ea82/ea81 cars and previous has this bolt pattern. Peugeot 505 or 504 or 604 is the only other car in the world that uses the same pattern.

the nut has a 17mm hex and the thread pitch is 10mm x 1.25 if you go to the hdwe store you will find 10x1.25 but the hex will most likely be 14 or 15mm. jut go with what you find that has the correct pitch, regardless of the hex size. feel free to use a washer behind the new nut to make up the difference in diameter

what i did was use a piece of roof rack span and mount my lights to it, and bolted them into 3/16" holes with 1/4" lag screws about 3 inches long to bite into the dense foam behind the skin. i used an ea81 unit as i was able to cut it short evenly and reattach the ends to make it fit between the headlights; the width of the grille.

Looks great. i wish i knew about this trick when i de-rusted my entire rear suspension on the 87 RX. i spent a good week with a wire wheel and naval jelly, and was picking rust boogers out of my nose.

^^^ second that, i have seen this fairly often, fill tube rusts out behind the shroud

a lot of times the nuts will take the studs out with them. if that is the case, get new studs. the are m10x1.25 threads. go to the parts store and look for the "HELP" brand and you should be able to find a set of 2 studs with nuts labelled 'import stud kit' if they dont have that, you can use the 'gm and toyota exhaust manifold' kit which wll come with 3 studs and 2 bolts. just be careful about how much torque you apply when going back together, because you dont want to ruin the threads in the aluminum head i suggest doing one side at a time. if both studs come out, you can slip in the new asket without unbolting the other side

study "ohm's law" as you should know the basics of electrical theory to understand what the DMM is telling you. otherwise its a glorified test light if you don't use it beyond simple troubleshooting

ea81 mpfi (Turbo) for 83 and 84 only mpfi with mechanical disty in 85-87.5 xt, and then for all ea82 turbo and all 4 cyl xt thereafter spfi for 86 in gl10, some carb or spfi for 87 ea82, then 88 and up all spfi if not turbo. spfi never came in the xt

I have used the permatex copper spray on the victor reinz gaskets with the graphite faces on the head gaskets. better manufacture of head gaskets will have a silicone bead around the water jackets

^^ KYB gr2 is the direct oem replacement.

I had to think real hard on how to write like that. i swear the current generation is learning how to read and spell from the internet before they learn how to in school, and with the internet being as random as it is, no one knows what to compare to, or what is really proper context. Did you see my broken subaru over hear? Its so loud you can here it coming a mile away. i think it's muffler fell off. There not going to like it over their in they're driveway. Your going to be sorry if you see it, it will make you're eyes bleed!

sorry to be rude but your answers were in the other posts. so... i would say go ahead and use them. see how they do and report back. that is how the wonderful knowledge is accumulated here. i guess you cant go wrong except for a few extra $$$ good luck:) sorry to run you off like that, just follow the rule of stupid questions get stupid answers. BUT there is no such thing as a stupid question, just how you ask is all. afterall, this isn't NASIOC:grin: have fun

as long as you stick to non turbo 5spds, your axles and 3.9 rear will be the same. if you have a chance to score the ea82 diff along with the trans, that is a better choice, and a closer match. use the ea82 driveshaft either way if you found a turbo or rx tranny, you will have 25 splines for the axle which does not fit your 23 spline axle, and you will also need the rear diff which is 3.7 gear if you had 25 spline trans, you will need a good machinist to shorten the turbo axles that go with the trans to fit the brat with a narrower track suppose you could mix and match axle races and cups, but that would involve finding all the different variations of axles and their dimensions to see what fits, or have tons of them laying around to play legos with

the 4wd and automatic displays in the center of the cluster are removable and interchangeable

there is one vac line that will connect to the intake. it should tee off along the boost switch on the framerail ahead of the strut. look around to see if there is a loose end. there will be a check valve in the bundle of hoses it connects to
