hey nut, same exact thing happened to me,first off did u try doubling up on the gaskets?(worked for me) then i plugged the bad hole with liquid steel (u can use what u prefer) and rotated the flange on the downpipe 180 degrees to match the other 2 holes and it works perfect:brow: just make sure when u weld the flange to take a straight edge of some sort and make sure it has the same angle as ur other downpipe....oh yeah and p.s when i cut my flange off i just used a little bit bigger pipe to make a union with,made it a little easier to weld 1 side then rotate it to get it exact. gluck -

beachbum replied to beachbum's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
the 2wd tranny came out of a 1979 gl stationwagon with a 1.8 and it bolted right up and even the shifter linkage was interchangeable,but i had to weld a plate on the crossmember to drive it,and thats why im wanting the right crossmember so ill be sure of its being centered and so on. and ur right we`re not scapping this no way, we were offered 3 grand for it 5 yrs ago,in pinellas county this is the nicest 1 around,of course it would probably look alot better with the tires off ur beast(hint hint) thnx -
