if you want a decent tower that gets good milage, look for a older s-10 2wd, mine got almost 30mpg, and even towing it would do 26mpg, really was a great little truck.also had an old toyota 2wd that would only do like 22mpg and 18 when towing. i guess this would be safer than towing with a soob, but i still think it could be done.those bmw 2002s are pretty nice, people mod the crap out of them.

if you are no longer interested, please let me know.the local guy that was interested is becoming serious about buying it, and made me a decent cash offer.let me know wether or not, Jon

SWEET looks great , can`t wait to see it all put back together!makes me want to paint mine. good luck on getting your parts brat tommorow, Jon

i have to say, it`ll be tough to find one cleaner, cheaper than that if you want 4wd!

i`ve done it with no problems.towed a toyota corolla 300 miles with an old 82 dl i used to have.that was a flat tow, but i also dolly-towed a 92 chevy s-10 2wd with it for 50 miles.you just have to take it easy, and make sure you have saftey chains, and check the hookups every couple 100 miles.i also towed a 2200lb camper with my 80 brat across town, the only problem was stopping it.keep in mind that you won`t stop on a dime towing something. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/photos/showgallery.php?cat=741

Welcome to the ULTIMATE subaru board, i too have a gen 1 brat and an 85 brat.have fun, Jon

HOLY COW theres a guy who knows his stuff:lol:

someone took your idea http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?car_id=192270113&dealer_id=56776802&car_year=1986&bkms=1132262796291&model=&lang=en&isp=y&start_year=1981&certified=&search_type=both&distance=0&first_record=51&make=SUB&min_price=1&address=12586&advanced=&end_year=1994&pager.offset=50&max_price=1800&cardist=2422

it probly is something someone put in, thats why there is no dash switch

there are no switches around or hanging down?no spare wires?you probly could wire it up to the battery easilly just to see it work.

No prob, if your shipper is coming down from NH, and can grab a part for me in NH (a rollbar), i will knock some money off the price.let me know, Jon

this is Jon in NY with the van:lol:

cool for burnouts:D front e-brake always helps

is this Phil in NH?

in 4-lo, i bet you would have plenty of power, plus these cars are not too flimsy.to do a long driveway, it would be a whole lot easier than a snow blower

it sounds to be working correctly, you could always duct tape it in, but it is not to much of a hassle to push it when you want to go in reverse.

i guess that car has a mind of it own:eek: glad to hear she`s running right,...for now:lol:

moosens is selling his plow, but its for an early 80s ea81, probly could adapt it to a loyale.

it is wet and dark outside now, but i will try tommorow.if you want to work on it right now, your best bet is to take them off 1 at a time.after you take each one off, start it and let it run for like 30 seconds to make sure it is not necessary.it really is a piece of cake, just gotta jump in there.good luck, Jon

i de-emisioned my brat, plugged almost all the vacum lines, and removed the air cleaner and air cleaner housing completely, and it runs better than ever!

no worries paul, just messin with ya.its pizza money anyway:lol:

those nissan flares really look pretty good, nice brat:headbang:

i know this is off topic, but carfreak, did you put in that cyclops?how hard was it?did you have to cut the grill?i bought one for the 78, but it looks like the one you have in that gen 2, and it looks like it won`t even fit in a gen 1.how much adaptation was needed? Jon
