  1. I jacked it up and everything seemed to be okay, I put some air in my tire(i think my problem) and tightened the bolts up, I think it just seemed really bad because I had around a thousand pounds worth of people in my car. We'll see if something comes up :). I'm actually pretty good on rust, surprisingly. Thanks for your input guys.

  2. The car has 160,000 on it. It has pretty little rust, just over one fender. Over all it's in good shape and I would like to keep it for a while. I do have little knowledge on working on cars myself but I should probably get around to trying things on my own. When I said ej I meant putting one in mine. I'm on my phone right now so I can't post pictures. I just took it in saying that I was leaking coolant and he said it was because I need a new water pump and timing belt.

  3. trust me phone calls work the best with these guys, actually I take that back, showing up on there door steps is best, but phone calls are second best. And even then it's sometimes tough. There main gig is not selling subaru stuff anymore. So they don't really hang on the USMB.

     

    Give them a call and talk to Albie he's the resident suby nut out there and I'm sure he could help you out.

     

    The best part is they finally got a nice gal answering the phone, so the phone actually gets answered now.

     

    I'll certainly try that, thank you.

  4. After doing a little offroading in my totally stock(other than my speakers duct taped into the pre-wired rear doors)Subaru, I go outside the next morning to a flat front tire. I jack it up and put the spare on, luckily it's flat too. I drive it up 100 yards to Wawa to fill it up. Stem brakes off on the way there. Get home put the original wheel back on and put some fix-a-flat in it and now it's fine. When I put the spare back under the hood. "Wtf is the screw to hold it down? Whatever, I was just mad and threw it somewhere maybe I'll find it another time."

     

    Driving today, cuklunk cuklunk. "Cool my car sucks I'll get out and look at something I have no idea about." I crawl under the car and see this.

    Yeah I have no Idea what in the hell that could mean.

    So I pop my hood to check my oil:grin:.

    And I see this.

    After pushing around with my ice scraper:) . Hey there's my screw! Cool, I tore a CV boot. Right?

     

    Now I ask, do I need to replace the whole axle? Can I just put a new boot on? I'd love help from anyone. I have no more than a 15 piece tool set in the back of the wagon. Honestly I'd pay any of you guys to let me come to you and let me watch you fix this problem of mine. If you took the time to read this whole post I'm sorry it wasn't more interesting. Oh yeah, My name is Jason Morris. I'm 17 and live in Ephrata, PA. I own a 91 Loyale wagon 4wd.

    $600 runs okay.

    This is my second one, I received my first $350 90 loyale for Christmas last year. It was rwd. I spun out in it turning onto the street I live on, hit a telephone pole, and totaled it. I hope that I am a little luckier with round 2. I would love to learn everything about my car and how to fix things on my own. I've been doing my reading every night and am trying my best to catch up on knowledge. Hopefully, you all wont mind my soon to come stupid questions. I'd someday like to take my car offroading(the real deal). Thank you for reading.
