nissan transfer case?
It is my understanding that the divorced nissan transfer case is center drop for the front drive.Would it be possible to rotate it so its tilted at about a 45* angle for use in a vehicle with a left drop?

Vehicle Selection
tailpipe,smailepipe. My muffler fell off out wheeling.And the mudflaps,and a mirror got bashed off,etc... it really doesn't matter which subaru you choose.they are all fairly small and can fit most places the "normal" 4x4's can't.true a hatch might wheel better but sometimes you need cargo space... heck with my brat I once parked it in one of those shopping cart isles at walmart because every other parking space was taken..

Move rear axle back?
How hard would it be to move the rear suspension on an 84 wagon back an inch or two for better clearance for tires?Even with a lift for the rear the limiting factor on tire size is the close proximity to the rear door.So I'm wondering how hard would it be to move the whole assembly back a bit. That or just push tires back a bit. thanks in advance

free a stuck caliper piston
I got a EA82 suspension set from a car that that had been sitting in a field for a while.The right front brakes were seized up about about as good as whats possible.the pads were frozen to the rotor,the pads were rusted to caliper,and the piston on the caliper is seized.What is the best way to free up a stuck caliper piston? Ive tried hitting it,spraying with PB blaster, using a c clamp on it,but it still wont budge.

Why are third-eye Subaru's so rare?
are the third light assembly's worth anything without a grill?I have an 82 wagon In that condition. EDIT: come to think of it I know of another subaru in the same shape,also with a third eye.

EA82 suspension under EA81?

tie rod washers
I am trying to take the tie rods off my 83 wagon.I know there is a washer that is bent over the tie rod inner joint to lock it in place.Just how exactly is that washer supposed to come off in one piece?

EA82 suspension under EA81?
Im using the EA82 control arms and struts/knuckles.With the stock EA82 rods I can not get them to even go into the hole on the EA81 mount. looks like I need to find a long 6 sided 17 mm socket to get those bolts on the radius rods off. as far as the tie rods go,can I lengthen the stock EA81 rods 1",then use a die grinder to make it so that the tie rods go down through the knuckle for less severe angles rather than up through the knuckle as in stock?Or do I need to use EA82 stuff? Also if the EA82 tie rods are 1.5" longer how does lengthening the stock rods 1" work?Wouldn't there be massive toe in?

Brand new GCK vibes
I had a set with bad vibs on me.turns out someone at GCK didn't put enough grease in the DOJ.DOJ's got so hot they burned off the boots.Then they were done a few miles after that.That axle had less than 50 miles...

EA82 suspension under EA81?
Ok I have the EA82 strut and EA82 control arm in place.What do I for the radius rod?Right now I can't seem to get it to go into the EA81 mount.It seems to need at least 2" or better of length added to it which doesn't seem right.

compiling offroad Book, info needed SJR
I would offer to post my car but I imagine you probably want cars that look nice.So with that being said I imagine you want cars with enough lift to not need any bashing/cutting.

suspension questions
ok anyone have any idea about brakes?
-
suspension questions
1: what is the proper way to remove the inner tie rod ends on an EA81 and EA82? 2:just making sure here: All NA manual axles have the same splines regardless of FWD/4wd correct?I know the turbo/auto axles are different. 3: Are the front brakes on an EA81 the same as EA82 front brakes?If not same will they atleast bolt up?

chop and weld or bash?

mud bogging loyale?
replace side windows with lexan?or remove them completely? remove headliner,carpet,plastic bumper covers(better is run steel bumpers-but that is a weight penalty. remove fenders remove grill remove emblems and badges and trim run hood pins?cut some of the support structure for the hood away,hell remove hinges and replace with hood pins instead. *KEEP the cowl panel at the bottom of the front window.Otherwise the plastic mounts for the wipers get brittle and they break* if its offroad only,feel free to remove taillights,mirrors,and mud flaps remove any non essential brackets.IE there are some brackets for holding the plastic inner liner in place for the front fenders.remove liner,remove brackets,etc...
