Iv'e been looking at just regular MT's (Firestone, BFG, ect.) I know what I can get Swampers for. And I may end up getting a set, but I was hoping to start out with somthing cheeper for now. I may look at some AT's and then just cut 'em the way I want (I'm getting a new grooving gun) for the money that might be the way to go for now.

Right on, so this would be 1st hand info. Are the R&P the same for the RX box and the GL D/R box? Any body? (can't tell I'm desperate can ya?:-p )

OK, I need some mud tires for my new wagon. I'm looking @ 27X8.50X14or15 or 215-75LT15 or 225-75LT14 and I'm getting STICKER SHOCK:eek: I have not bought new tires in this size for 2 or 3 years and when I did they wer like $45ea!
Any one got a good place to get 'em?
-
NO! Not yet:rolleyes: I have made 4 sets and sent them out, all with promises of pics when painted and mounted. But NO pics back to me yet. (that's the problem with doing mail order stuff)
-
Have not had the plesure yet, but I know what's up with that! And like I said, U guys have done alot more in a Sube than I have yet. So I do bow to your'e exp. on that one;) I don't know if U have any idea who/what "Trail Tuff Suzuki Stuff" is, but I have been wheelin' with the owner & workers there from the get go (10 years ago) and they have respect for the Roos. (and these guys are in all the mags, and run all the top trails)

Cook, thanks.
I am 100% sure the 4.111 and 4.444 ring/pinion are direct drop ins
DO TELL!!!!!!!!! How do U know this? have U done it? Have U seen it done?
I would give my left fam. jewl to know for sure how it's done! I would kill for 4.44's in a D/R 5spd box:D
-
ME 2 ME 2 ME2:D:D:D:banana:

Let me know how it turns out. Can U get 4.44 ( or anything nemaricly higher) from the same place for the same app.?
-
I don't think so, this is a "ma and pa" kinda place. I have problems getting them to awser the local PH# they have:rolleyes:
-
I rented one to explore the jungle out side of Plya Del Carmmen (near Cancoon) Mexico. I can say that it was one tuff little rig:) I beat the H&77 out of it (I had FULL ins. on it) and it never gave up on me:-p
-
I get ALOT of Q's on this so I thought I would post up about it.
Bumpers start @ $125 + S&H, this is for a single tube with mounts. There are lots of options to be had, as they are custom made to YOUR'E needs, but that is the base price.
Roof racks start @ $140+ S&H, there is a lot of time and work that goes into one of these, and the fit is very importand. And again that is for the base rack, options will run U more.
Rock sliders, skidplates, ect. are priced on a "per order" basis.
I am not curently offering any lift kits, and when I do it will be a suspention system, with new triling/ controll arms and struts, and as such it will be more than any of the curent offerings. (I don't figure there will be much of a market for this, but when I have the bugs worked out I will offer it in kit fourm)

OK, hear is what we do:
Matt, Bob, Adam, and any one in the valley reading this, we all need to go to Speedway Wrecking one @ a time and ask about the Subaru wagon we need parts off of. This will teach them that they can make ALOT more off of a vintage Subaru than any old POS Ford
-
I have made mounts for each style, and the stock rails ALWASE end up being a problem. Gutter mounts are about 3X as strong as the stock rails.
-
I have seen with my oun 2 eyes a bolt on spindle. If I remeber right it was on the back of an EA81 2WD wagon. So I know such a thing must exsist. It was a 4 bolt patern, but not semetrical, 2 on each side so to speak.
-
Hi all! I'm looking for some info on the U-joint rear axle.
1) is the outboard end all 1 pice? (ie: splined stub that the yoke slides onto, or no)
2) is the inboard end of the shaft a male or femail? (ie: are there stubs on the diff., or do the axles slide INTO the diff.)
3) how much can the shaft expand and colapse 1" 2" ect.?
Thanks in advance for the help:)

I know that some one here got a trany (RX D/R I think) from here in Medford from a shop called DHM. I was told that it was a 4.11:1 R&P, any truth to that? Would THAT R&P set fit into a regular 5spd D/R?
-
I don't know all the hows or whys but I know for a FACT that it's all wase a %. I haven't had anything with stock tires on it in a long time, so I use GPS for a speedo and the amount of error allwase gets worse the faster I go.
-
[EDIT] I SHOULD have exluded Zap & Q-man from my last post. U guys can say WHAT EVER U want about Subs off road! I know that U have WAY more exp. wheelin' 'em than I do. [/EDIT]
:mybad: (we need a smiley for that)
-
A-men! I do relise that every one is just trying to be realistic, and I respect that. But damn! U guys need a little more respect for the Subarus off road performance. Every thing has +'s and -'s off road, but the Subaru platform has an afull lot of +'s going for it.
Just my $.02

That looks good, what manifold & adaptors wer U using?
-
I have to say, a stock Jeep is NO STRONGER than a stock Subaru.
I have seen WAY MORE busted Jeep parts than Subaru on the trail (I'm talking stock to stock here) Now an erly (pre '86) Toyota truck, hard to beat for durability. But I will stick with the Subaru for the WOW factor when going over the big stuff:)
-
Been using cotter pins for years (I HATE ROLL PINS) and have NEVER had a problem:)
-
I would LOVE to get my hands on the manifold I have seen here that is for the single side draft webber. That's what I would like to run, but I think I'm gona end up with a little 390cfm Holley 4bbl.
Good source for cheep muders?
