also if the A/T fluid temp light ever goes on, stop IMEDIATLY, these trannys fry fast.

it might not hurt to install outback struts in the rear, so the bottom of the car is a little higher for towing, but otherwise you should be fine. my uncle pulled a 12 foot pop-up with his forester on many family trips (his forester is a 2.5ltr) he towed over many mountains with it too. as long as you kick the tranny down to 3rd manually, it won`t loose much speed on the hills. he was running 60mph up hill and 70 on flat ground. his milage was around 19 with the cruise on. the trailer was a rockwood 12ft, not sure of the wieght, but i was not able to pick up the front of it.

hey, this almost looks like a foxmobile:brow: http://seattle.craigslist.org/car/137041481.html

yeah, thats pretty much what i do with my 78....

well, i just went out and bought a quart of gloss navy blue rustoleum, mineral spirits, brushes/rollers, and sandpaper. i am going to try painting some panels on the brat with it. i will let you guys know how it comes out:cool:

sounds interesting:brow: only problem is that i got my liscence suspended again:banghead: ......its a long story:-\ and it wasn`t in a soob;) it was in that damn fast hyundai:lol: maybe still if i can get a friend, or my pop to give me a ride up, and tow the brat behind. that would be cool to weld up the exhaust and off road for a couple hours (one place where i can still drive:D ) any progress on the hatch? hows she running?

if you have a traction problem, and don`t mind loosing a little cargo space, just drop some sandbags in the back, and you`ll be all set;) no need to get all technical and write a story:lol:

as long as the motor is well protected, you should do OK. the rest of the car will just drag along:grin:

man, you are one lucky son of a gun:lol: thats it, i`m moving to MT:brow:

did it have a white pushbar? maybe its Mudisfun's car?

i emailed and asked him if he wanted $2500, and that $25,000 must have been a misprint, and i got a snotty response:-p lets face it, new the car was probly around 4-5k right? so i guess he thinks the value should appreciate 5 times in 29 years:confused:

Zap, i`m sure you`ve wheeled with ea81 subes, would you say the Imp is any better in the mud/ice than a ea81? what are the ea81`s better points, and the Imp`s better points? just out of curiosity....... i always did want to really offroad a sube, but i always just wheel with mine in stock configuration.

thats only $22,219 in U.S. money:brow: could almost get away with just selling the house, and keeping the kid:clap: i wish i was a rich guy into subes, i would scarf that thing up in a heartbeat.

screw you bro:confused: you obviously don`t know the rarity of these old wagons:-\

i`d put cash on it that the guy will NEVER get more than 5k for that car

heck, who needs a snorkel? looks like it went through with ease:D

Brad must really know his subes:brow: i love this board:-p

there is also an ea81 with 140k only 40 miles from my house for $100

there is one for $200, thats about an hour and a half from my house:brow:

thanks for the site man!! there is a couple on there:D

i`ll pm

i`ll keep you posted

its a white 94 justy 2 door, fwd, 5sp. clean body and interior, 140k miles. the guy wants $125 for it. if i pass, are you interested? i was reading on the justy site, that the crankshaft pulley bolt loosens up causing the key way to shear off. maybe if the pulley was taken off, and a larger key was added, and than everything put back together and tightened to the max, that just might work, i`ll have to check it out. thanks Jon

thanks for the heads up! now i just have to see if i can get pete to ship it:brow: shipping will run about $500, so for $800, it doesn`t seem to bad. the rust free ones are non-existant over here. thanks again, Jon

thanks Andrew, 1 more question, if the doner engine is out of an ecvt justy, will the bellhousing and flywheel line up to a 5sp? thanks Jon
