My '95 Legacy: Trashwagon10
Yep, I took a real good look at everything today while I was under it. So I just got a new set of 195/65/15s Little bit taller then the 60s to I guess its good for now. I am planing on installing the OB struts along with the crossmember spacer they come with. (Someday) For now I just want to check it over and make it reliable. I still have the EA82 which I seem to like more. Pictures..! I have pounded this out some from when I took the pic, I still need to pound it out more. More updated pics to come soon.. I will have the new tires on tomorrow.

My '95 Legacy: Trashwagon10
I picked up a '95 Legacy L wagon AWD AT saturday from MilesFox for $500, change out seized waterpump and shreaded T-belt. The waterpump seized due to the other owner running straight water in the cooling system, MilesFox bought this car the day before I was going to, so I just got it from him instead and fixed it at his place. Car has 205,000, it has some damage to the left rear quarter from being hit by a plow, but will be a good candidate for a Trashwagon. Question: Will 205/75/15s fit easily without rubbing? The car already has the 15" Alloy GT style wheels, but I'm looking at new tires (Wanted to run General Grabber AT2s 205/75/15) Dunno if that'll work without Outback struts? Pictures of the car tomorrow. -Tom

timing belt replacement
Whoops! No, do not use RTV on the mickey mouse seal.. Sorry for not making a space between the two. you can use a dab of bearing grease to hold the Mickey seal in place if needed.. Sorry for the confusion.

timing belt replacement
If you are to replace the seals, the seals you are looking to replace are: Seal and O-ring for the Cam carriers (Behind the cam sprockets) Crank Seal (Take off the crank pulley and the two crank gears which the timing belts grab. The seal will then be behind that.) Also, on the new waterpump and oil pump gaskets you can apply some Red RTV where the gasket meets the engine block just for added protection - plus it helps keep the gasket where you want. And the small hose I was talking about will be right under the A/C pump (you will need to remove that to get to the upper hose clamp. Just some added tips and pointers.

I'm not a fan of the scissor doors nor the hood scoop. The color is cool, but not for the interior. But to each their own. Its a nice job though. Still running the EA81?

timing belt replacement
I run coverless aswell, and proud of it. Makes checking belt tension very easy like GD said. just keep rags away from the running engine PS: Make sure you replace the small hose on top of the waterpump which goes to the heater core pipe running under the intake. Also replace the O-ring on the water pipe for the waterpump, (What the lower Radiator hose connects to) Cheers -Tom

The rear fenders on a Loyale/GL/DL and any other Subaru, are part of the main body support/sub-frame - So they will not "un-bolt" you would need to cut and reweld them if you were t replace them. VW bugs and Fiat 500s the rear fenders come off Lol..

Yea, The brake pads I got from Beck/arnley were made defective (Really crappy, I will show you in person next weekend) so I went to Bumper to bumper and bought some new pads which work great! I didn't get done till 9pm, I started at 11am. I wasn't in any real rush anyhow.. Yea, lets meet up next weekend. Either at Foxs place or some place (Store, Food place ect..) maybe give Fox (Liz) a break from us? Lol.
