ok cool. looks like i wont be in ether of my subies. engine droped a cylnder on my wagon so ill be driving the wife's OB limited down. was really looking forward to the mud pit and wheelin on friday. i guess its gettin a carbed EJ now.

ill take one with the bolts. let me know total amount.

im comming down friday morning, hope to be there around 11am or so. and i hope to be able to hit TSF so i can break in the new lift kit. if not ill just play ALOT in the mud pit and maybe rallyX. scratch that, commin in my impreza so no 4wheelin for me, just rallyX now.

read a few posts down for lift install ?'s i made. there are SJR as well as others. i have a 2inch SJR lift and 28's w/ peugeot 15inch wheels. best friend is to do a search there has been HUNDREDS of posts about the lift kits and such. also WELCOME TO THE CRAZYNESS THAT IS LIFTED SOOBIES!!

im on the list now, i wont be able to do every weekend, maybe once a month. unless we can get some people together to hit evens creek. down in the auburn area.

lol ya thats true. i changed out my plugs last night, looks like someone didn't know how to gap them, one was almost closed. so its better now, so today i need to reset my timing and i hope it will be all better.

meeting at 7am at the jack in the crack off I-5 in tukwila, leaving 7:30am friday and heading south.

ive been running 28's for a few weeks, and they rubed like crazy on cranked suspension even with trimming and banging with a BFH. im sure it could be done but your have to trim, no i mean cut the crap out of your fenders.

well i think its only getting like 17MPG right now, im gonna rebuild my weber today and put that on and see how she does. like i said i have to have it in 3rd or 4th to get up the slightest hill on the highway.

ya scott go ahead, i would be honored. jeff im gonna try but thats a long drive up to mount vernon for me the weekend after the show, i might not be able to aford it. ill let you know for sure, i would LOVE to go but i need to watch my funds after the show. ive never seen that picture before, does look very close. i still have to finish my front bumper (extend the top bar to cover the corners of the fenders) and make the brackets for the rear bumper. as well try to get my car to run right, it cant push itself up a hill on the highway in 5th, im usually downshifting to 3rd or 4th to make them. its got no power at all right now.

got it in and redone today. here are some decent pictures for now until the show. few more things to do yet before the show.

ok i pre-registered but never recived a e-mail back, but also wondering how much for the mud pit? was wondering if that bit has been sorted out yet. also since i pre-registered but it states that camping is an another $10 per night, is that per person or per car? Thanks, Shean

yep king county.

thanks again eric, well i took my wagon over to cap's place after work, ended up i swaped the driver and passenger front strut plates. so tomarrow ill have to stay after work and take it all back apart. ill have to make sure i remember to bring my welder so i can weld the bolts to the top of the plate so i dont have to try to hold the freakin things with a wrench.

count me in.

no its a 2inch lift from SJR, when i put the wheels back on after finishing the fronts where so bad the inside of the tire wasn't touching the ground. drove around the block and then it was fine. i lowered the suspension on the front a little and its not crazy cambered now but its still REALLY stiff. eric toss me your phone number so i can call before i head over to make sure i dont wake you up again. also i didn't have to pound the inner fneders maybe i did put the lift blocks on the wrong sides (swaped driver w/ passenger dunno?)

thanks one eye, that worked. didn't even think about that. got everything in and had to ajust my front suspension down because the tires were WAY positive cambered. my only thing now is the front end is REALLY bouncy and i only have it cranked up about 1inch. its like i lost suspension travel. is that normal for the front to get so stiff after the lift blocks?

on the greddy read my the wire colors and i can tell you where they go. i know 2 of them are 12 switched, the black is ground then the red i belive is 12 constant. i think it was the blue and green wire into the same wire as a 12 switched. thats how i installed them on WRX's and the like when i worked at the performance shop.

ok scratch that, got the tops in, spot welded the bolts so they wouldn't spin on me on the strut extension. now i cranked my suspension to the lowest setting and still cant get the strut back into the knuckle. i can get it over the whole but the control arm wont drop enough to slip it in. i already removed the sway bar. any ideas before i pull the LCA from the subframe and get it that way.

ok on the front (86 ea82 with 2inch SJR going in) what is the easiest way to get the blocks in above the strut? A: disconnect the swaybar and wrestle it in B: remove strut and bolt her in but how to get back into knuckle C: cuttin torch? (just kidding) i got the rear in in about 20 minutes by myself. have to sort out a few things like the diff drop the 19mm bolts are ether too short or too long as well as i am going to have to enlargen the wholes. i think i might just get some longer bolts and just run those instead of trying to run 2 pairs of hardware. thanks and for a faster responce hell give me a call at 206-245-9292 Thanks, Shean
