  1. Sure, I'd like to see pics, I am looking for a good set with the turn signals and all. Thanks

     

    -Bill

  2. If you would be willing to separate the bellhousing from the EA71 from the std hatch, I'd be interested in the belhousing, flywheel and clutch assembly. PM me if you want to go that route. -Bill
  3. Is it a Leone(loyale) wagon or a Liberty(Legacy) wagon?

     

    -Bill

  4. It should fit. You can come check out the dashes on the Tailgate wagons vs. the lifted wagon if you want to be 100% sure, but they are the same body so it should work. -Bill
  5. Yes, with any kit that spaces the body there will have to be modifications to the shifter linkage, steering link, and the anti-pitch bar on the back of the motor. Also you will have to source radiator hoses, possibly longer heater hoses, maybe have to lengthen some ground wires, and remove the mechanical fan shroud or remove the fan altogether. Brake lines usually won't have to be extended, you can remove the lines from the body clips and bend the lines down to get the length you need. It sounds like a lot but it's not that much to do when you get down to doing it. -Bill

  7. For the fabric of your new seats, perhaps you could have the old cloth carefully removed from the stock seats and re-installed on the new ones? I wouldn't know if there is enough material on the old seats to cover the new ones but it is worth looking into. -Bill
  8. I got one for my birthday My girlfriend found it on ebay for $12 shipped And I am way too excited about paying that much for a $2 toy...
  9. My kit includes blocks to lower every component of the subframes 3" and the suspension 4", so the suspension geometry stays relatively stock, so every block pictured is where there is a suspension component. -Bill
  10. The EA71 bellhousing will not bolt to the EA81 block, been there tried that. What you need is a D/R 4-speed, the tranny will bolt up to the stock crossmember, but unless you get one from a 81 Brat, you will need to modify the shifters and modify a clutch cable from a Gen 2 Brat, as the 81 Brat clutch cable was only made one year and is no longer available anywhere (also tried to find that too). Then you will have to modify the angle of the steering rack to clear the wider bolt pattern of the EA81 bellhousing. Everything else pretty much bolt together. I've done this kind of swap so if you have questions let me know. -Bill
  11. I've finalized my 4" EA82 lift design and I am now ready to fill orders for them. The lift uses 3" crossmember spacers and 4" strut spacers. Camber remains as close to stock as possible. Each kit comes with all the USS Grade 8 bolts you will need to install, but it does not come with any Metric bolts, or a steering extension. You will also have to modify your shifter linkage as well. Price is $400 plus $40 shipping inside the U.S. Please let me know if your car is an automatic trans or a 5-speed. Thanks! 4" kit for Automatic Trans 4" kit for 5-speed Trans -Bill
  12. I have some that will be ready to be shipped by Friday -Bill
  13. I have just perfected my 4" design, and they are available to be ordered. I build the larger lifts on a per-order basis. For EA82 cars, the 4" kit is $400 plus $35 shipping anywhere in the US. -Bill
  14. $20 shipping to anywhere in the U.S. I'm working on having more ready to go by next week sometime -Bill
  15. Gen 1 GL coupe, Full STi drivetrain and modified STi suspension, dropped on 16" aluminum slotted mags, flat black with some red gloss trim, and a full race interior. Pure. Win. -Bill
  16. I have tons of them, how many do you need?

     

    -Bill

  17. I have a used one from the beast, right now I cant find the chrome alternator adjuster bracket part though, but its just a generic small bock chevy bracket. If I can find the other bracket you can have it all for $50, or if you wanna modify a chevy alternator bracket yourself I'll sell you just the pump bracket itself with the bolts for $30.

     

    -Bill

  18. Hey everyone, I am still offering these kits, but for the next month or so I won't have any available, I have been driving corn silage trucks and haven't had time to make more yet. Once I am done driving and can get more kits made I will post it here. Thanks! -Bill
  19. I don't know who you PM'd, but I never got a message. -Bill
  20. Right on, I won't need the stock EA82 bracket, I make the new one with all new steel.

     

    -Bill

  21. Yeah, that part sucked, but after 24 hours of continuous working, it was just when the pipes hit the tailsection. Never even considered the FT4WD tailhousing wouldn't hit the pipes... Great lessons learned from this project though -Bill
  22. I can make one for you, whatcha got goin on?

     

    -Bill

  23. I have at least 3 of these, PM me an offer, I just have to pull one from a parts rig. -Bill
  24. Machining would be required on the case to make dual range work with the xt6 case, the input shaft area has to be drastically changed to accept the low range gear shaft and the input bearing from the dual range. I've noticed the early legacy manual trans have a case almost identical to the RX case, the only difference being the belhousing (obviously) and the lack of the dual range specific parts, but all the bumps and bungs are there, just need to be machined to accept the dual range parts. -Bill
