lefty42303 replied to jelly man's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXIf you search the internet for "early Legacy locks" you will discover a posting that explains how to fix this.

Legacy rear susp sags when loaded
lefty42303 replied to harborseal55's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXI ordered shock overload springs from Parts America for about $23. I threw the mounting hardware away & put the springs over the rear struts & inside the original springs. They fit nicely & kept my '90 Legacy sedan level while carrying a trunkfull of firewood & towing popup camper. Jim

Legacy rear susp sags when loaded
lefty42303 replied to harborseal55's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXMy '90 Legacy also sags when loaded or popup camper hitched. I can find springs that lower but not for overload. Keep posting possible solutions. I will let you know if I find anything. Jim

Intermittent Sunroof Operation.
I have the same symptoms with my '90 Legacy. I can hear a relay clicking in the roof somewhere but no sunroof action. Wile watching the ammeter I see no deflection indicating that the motor isn't getting any power or motor is acting intermittent. Don't wanna pull headliner out cause I think I'll tear it all up. Let me know what you find. Thanks, Lefty42303

Timing belt cover removal
lefty42303 replied to dashton's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXI had same problem on my JL2.2. I pried the outside covers apart with screwdrivers. The cover split at the inserts when the inserts pulled out of the plastic. When I went back together I just used machine screws with washers to hold the covers in place. The gasket around the middle covers were swollen and wouldn't go back in place. I trimmed them for best fit with no problems since. Lefty42303

big troubles HELP!
lefty42303 replied to dawlfandave's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXAfter removing all the bolts in the cover that didn't mess up I wedged a screwdriver in the crack between the covers and pried the insert out of the back cover. Then I used a pliars to hold the insert while unscrewing bolt out of insert. After all is done I used a 1/4-20 through bolt with a nut on the other side. Heck with buying new! I also trimmed the swollen rubber gaskets on timing cover for best fit. Lefty 42303

Blower fan relay location?
lefty42303 replied to tbkester's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXDoes the blower not work on any speed? It seems I had a problem with mine & there is a device wit a fusible link in the air duct adjacent to the heater blower. I soldered mine back together & oiled the heater blower motor and all has been fine since. Lefty42303

What *is* this ???
lefty42303 replied to BoxersOnly's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXI am sure it is from the casting. I've seen this on lots of aluminiun castings. No worries. Lefty42303
