  1. it's on it's 3rd or 4th battery the car keeps draining them i know it's not the battery because i disconnected the batt. and it held a charge just fine after setting a few days
  2. anytime the car sets for about a day the battery dies. we can jump start it and run it but the next day it's dead again. it's a new battery. i disconnected the battery for a few days and reconnected it today and it starts fine. so the car is draining it. anyone have any ideas. this is for a 96 legacy 2.2
  3. found one for sale for $2500 no rust 130,000 miles looks to be in very nice condition. nice white paint and sunroof. i've heard bad things about the trans. anyone have any info on these cars ,the good ,the bad.
  4. my 90 does the same thing. mine also takes a little time for it to go from 3rd to 2nd.
  5. a friend of mine is thinking about buying a new forester. he was looking at the turbo model. they salesman told him you can only run premium gas in it or it could do somthing to the turbo and the warranty won't cover it, anyone know anything about this.
  6. my 205/75-15 general grabbers measure 26.8 according to tirerack.com. i have outback struts on my car and they just fit. i have maybe 1/4 inch between my rockers and tire. they also rub on the rear mud flaps when hitting bumps. i'm gonna say no because even if they did fit in the wheel openings they would probably rub on the struts.

    Mudding!

    we were just up their again today. a guy i work with just got a early 90's dodge dakota 4x4 and wanted to see what it could do. he almost got stuck in that same area.

    outback struts

    yeah i was pretty sure they were the same. i've parked next to alot of outbacks with my legacy and my legacy has more ground clearance. this wouldn't be the case if the outback springs gave more lift.

    outback struts

    from what i've heard outback springs are the same size as stock legacy springs and will not give you any lift

    outback struts

    mine has outback struts and stock springs with 205/75-15 tires. rubs on rear mudflap a little and rubs when steering wheel is fully turned.
  11. it's a mountain road called bull run. it has a few lookouts and a few places you can play around in.
  12. i only have somewhere between 5000 - 8000 miles on them. but they still look like new. i think they are supposed to be good for 60,000 miles if my car is still running good when they wear out i'll get another set. i also just bought a set for my jeep a few weeks ago 31x10.50-15. they are no super swamper but i think they work really good. they also work very well in snow/ice.
  13. i have a set on my 90 legacy 205/75-15. great tires. i take my car up in the mountains and play in the mud/snow. a guy i know takes his jeep up there i went everywhere the jeep went. many times people have told me i couldn'd go somewhere because it's a car and i have proven them wrong.
  14. 90 legacy 4wd, outback struts, 205/75-15 general grabber at2's on aluminum wheels painted gold, and a set of hella 500 lights. thats all i've done to it so far. 90 legacy fwd. pretty much stock except for the exhaust. it needs a paint job its like 5 different colors. i work in lock haven so you might have seen one of them at some point.
  15. i was thinking they would be strong enough i just wanted another opinion. me and a few friends of mine like to go up on the mountain roads sometimes when we get snow and you never know when someone will need pulled or i will need pulled.
  16. on my 90 legacy i have 2 in the front and 1 in the back. how strong are these. are they designed only for when the car is broke down to tow it? or can i put a chain on there and pull someone out of the mud without the risk of breaking them off.
  17. 74 jeep cherokee 360, quadra-trac, 50,000 miles 78 jeep cherokee 360, quadra-trac, 140,000 miles
  18. if i'm going down a hill will all 4 wheels hold my back or will just the front. what i mean is do the rear wheels kick in or do they only work when i'm on the gas.
  19. it's an auto trans. when i put the trans in 1 the car holds back (engine breaking). does this effect only the front wheels or all the wheels
