The Dude Abides

Did you ever go out or what ever happened. I still have those places bill sent you. I found them in the trunk of my car after i sold it.

uh oh

Wow this thread was 6 years old before you guys dug it from the abyss. I like listening to instrumental composures when i wrench. Keeps me calm and focused. At work on the other hand.

Sunday i could do it before 2 in the afternoon, but saturday seems kinda full for me. Maybe late afternoon on saturday. Either way, next weekend i have nothing to do soooooooooooooooooo.

How about friday afternoon after work. I will be off at 330. If not i might be able to go on saturday i think i have kid duty that day. If neither of these work, next saturday is a definate in.

I wish i could of bought this, its a sharp a** looking car.

You will notice after driveing a bit that the camber will settle. If it didnt, then you might of not cut the blocks right or you might have them on the wrong side. Just a few things to consider, your welcome for the wheels and i would love to see a picture of everything done. The one you posted isnt showing up.

Am i missing something with awd vehicles. Why couldnt you shift it into neutral with the key in the on position.

1988 Subaru DL (Guido) 2inch Boss Lift 27 x 8 x 14 Old School BF Mud Terrains Muffler Delete:lol: Currently in intensive care waiting for a resurection. Before the Rust Proofing AKA Cow Paintjob.

I might be in but might not bring a subaru. Still working on a place to do tripple bypass surgery.

Naa, i like em. But keep pokein your head around here a set will pop up.

Its pretty friggin broken now but yea its pretty sweet.

I did a bill olhms monster lift but he doesnt really do them anymore until he gets his internet back. I have 27 inch mud tires which they dont make anymore in this brand. You can still get 14 inch bighorns and superswampers. For your entertainment, heres what mine looks like.

How much to make and ship one 50266

I have 14inch pugs and they look great but i only have a 2 inch lift. If your going 4 inch lift i would try to find some 15inch pugs or redrill chevy - toyota wheels. 15inch is really the way to go anyways since there are few agressive tires anymore for 14inch wheels. But to simply answer your question, for a 4 inch lift i would use a 15inch wheel. Ben

If you have a subaru with a/c you have 2 fans. All subarus came factory with a electric fan, if you had ac you had a water pump fan also. There shouldnt be any clutch fan to it it should just be a fan. You only needed 2 fans if you had a/c but if you have 2 electrical fans id say go with that. Less power robbing from a waterpump fan. The No Thermostat worries me as to think maybe there was overheating problems in the past and they took it out just to get buy. Do what you need to do to get buy but for sure get the oem t stat when you get a chance. Make sure not to tighten the t stat housing it up to much, aluminum strips easily. Ask me how i know. Something that helped me out was get everything straightned out and try to put the vehicle on some car ramps or at an angle with the rad cap off and let the system burp the air out of it. It improved my heat a bit and definately got rid of some air in the system. If the heatercore is plugged your kinda in a bad spot. There not easy to get to (never are really in any car). If you can tear it apart to get to it while not needing to drive it your good to go. Your 89 manual will be able to help you with this. Good Luck. Ben

Yea but you could always trailer your subaru behind it. Just sayin.

Hi jeremy. We usually try to do something in the summer for the iowa folks but not limited to just them. McBrat usually tries to organize the event which involves camping for a couple of days and some light 4 wheelin. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=93496&highlight=iowa+meet+greet http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=97954&highlight=iowa+campout&page=13 Pics start on page 13 if you want to miss our stupid banter. McBrat is the one with the lifted chevy since hes to good to bring a subaru to a subaru event. My wagon looks significantly different then it was then.

I cant image anyone trying to steel these cars on a regular basis, no matter now nice they may look. I used to leave the keys in my car all the time and no one gave it a second look.

Sent 4 pug aluminum 14inch wheels to Grand Junction, CO today. Good luck with your lift and the wheels jessie. Also swapped my 1000 cold cranking amp battery from the taurus into the soob. Just curious if this is a bad thing. To have a way powerfull battery in a car that might not need one that large. IT has 850 cranking amps when the old battery had half of that.

Got a package in the mail today from colorado. Its alittle heavy.

Sounds like its coming along, did you ever think about putting on the pugs from the blue brat to maybe get alittle better MPG on the highway. Ben

Why do you want your daughter to have a more powerfull car. If memory serves me correctly my first car was a 89 Ford Crown Victoria. I had two people crash into me, i put that car into a ditch on a slick road. I used to do doughnuts and fishtail on gravel roads. Id pile my friends into it and blast the stereo. Power is not something i think your daughter would need to get to school and work. If i were you a nice 2.2 legacy or even a 1.8 impreza would be a good fit. Or give her your old one and you get the STI impreza for the power for you. I have 3 daughters and am planning on buying suburbans for all of them.

p.s. im serious.

Id love a get to gether. We can get together at my father in laws shop and put my car back together. Its Heated, and dry.
