never, I live in Michigan and we have no hills.

brag away thats a good find, kinda like treasure hunting, for me anyway I live in the rust belt. not many cars make it that long without rusting badly

sounds like massive blow by, with the trans being stuck you should sell the brat to me , hows the body on it. their getting so hard to find its most likely worth a rebuild..poast some pics of that baby

Holy crap that things nice

your slurring your type.. you need more sleep dude, looks sweet though

I use a battery powered impact. never thought about bringing a sawzall?

their awesome cars, 230 k is nothing, allot of us abuse them off road, and they hold up surprisingly well, I live 3 miles off the pavement and have 2 gl wagons and a 91 loyale, they never get stuck, (on road) a 4 foot snow drift doesn't count....and we have allot of mud in the east.. have fun

if you just want the sazall check ebay.. allot of people buy the whole kit and sell off the stuff they don't need. I have a ridgid 18 volt, its killer. Milwaukee is allot better quality, bigger price too. ridgid is made in china. but i have had no problems, and they offer a lifetime service warranty even on battery's, I have used the warranty a few times

torq converter , or is that an old term now ?

maby a little clear coat, it does kinda stand out, doesn't look like it belongs there, go flat black on the topper

this car isn't the worst Ive driven, i was thinking man this car isn't too bad. I'm rust belt conditioned, Iron oxide sucks

interior dismantle..dont want to catch fire inside, remove seat,carpet ,padding have to remove factory rust proofing, my buddy burned his shop to the ground welding in floor panels, went to lunch car caught fire, and tadaa, no shop

shouldn't be that hard, good flat surface, and a floor jack, two bolts on the engine and one bolt on the cross member. one engine bolt toward the rear of the car is hard to get to. its behind the rack and pinion, a ratcheting wrench is nice to have. (like a gear wrench )

seals and bellows should be all you need. this rack had 238k on it and all the weare surfaces were good, just a good clean up and regrease

if you taper the holes on the other side i would worry about them pulling out. how far would they stick out ?

I have a 93 gl sedan, new to me. first thing i did was change out all the fluids, went to start her up, went to verify oil pressure and .... what the crap. did I get a cheap subaru..i have never seen a dash missing the upper 2 gages, did some Japanese guy have a bad day and forget to put them in. oooh they probably saved 50 cents omitting them

is that a power steering rack or manual

i did have the bumper off. im sure that had alot to do with it

dang it.. stupid Deer just got up and ran away, he looked as pissed as me 25 mph, bolted out from a stand of trees right next to the road

rack and pinion time no good bellows total disassembly clean and reassemble, I was able reuse all components, except the seal, it got nerpled, bummer, good prices on ebay for rebuild parts

there are three lines on the flywheel. put the center line on the casting arrow, than check if the cams are lined up. one dot should be up and one should be down, they have a illustration in the Haynes manual http://www.finleyweb.net/JonsStuff/SubaruDocumentation/tabid/54/Default.aspx

Oh ya 17 MM , duh never thought of that

the propane torch works good, softens it up and you can scrape id, nice ..thanks guys

+1 on grossgary's advice. it only takes a few more minutes with the covers apart,there are lots of threads on this subject. i would do the idler bearings and belts too. they have to come off any way, ive done it the wrong way and was back in there 10 thousand miles later.. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/85-94-SUBARU-LOYALE-1800-GL-RX-XT-TIMING-BELT-KIT-EA82_W0QQitemZ400025164089QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories?hash=item400025164089&_trksid=p4506.c0.m245&_trkparms=72%3A1205%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/85-94-SUBARU-LOYALE-XT-RX-GL-1-8L-FULL-GASKET-SET-EA82_W0QQitemZ350180098286QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories?hash=item350180098286&_trksid=p3911.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1171%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318
