  1. Right Matt, inline. But I think that IF U are going to put a D. into a roo, the VW IS the way to go. I would use the oil pan, pick-up, ect. from the Vanagon and mount it the same way. Would give ALOT more clearance under the EA81 & EA82 hoods.
  2. I'll be around:) That RX is SICK!!! Nice ride man! How much boost U runnin'?
  3. Hey man!! Hows it going? Haven't talked to U in ages:o Whacha' drivin' these days?
  4. Go look at my TWB Fabrications site I have pics of tire racks and bumper racks there
  5. Shiping is not as bad as U would think. (I ship 1-3 of them a week) But it can't be all 1 pice like that to ship it. Has to have some way of breaking down. I don't want to give away ALL of my trade secrets, but if U have ever seen 1 of mine U will see how to make it just as strong, but still break down. That's very similar to what I sell, but I don't recomend using the stock rail mounts any more. They like to start pulling out of the roof when U get a load on the rack, and they will not suport as much weight as the rain gutters will. And that is a NICE RACK Just had to get that in there
  6. Well.....60:1 crawl ratio, solid rear axle, full hand made frame, poss. 33's, winch, welded rear. Other than that, I have a Jeep wagoneer that I came about that )( close to rolling 2 times last night
  7. Can U say "Nissan transfercase?", I knew that U could I have a spair 3.90 diff. (welded or un) U have a lift in allready, just get the 'case and some drive shafts and then U will have D/R
  8. So now, what's the deal? Are U going to D/R? Did U get the parts U needed? Or are U going back to S/R? (or should I say "staying with S/R")
  9. I tosed mine when I made my new down pipe. Never had a problem. I tosed ALL the heat sheilding, turbo, down pipe, x-over pipe, ect. The engine ran about 15* cooler with out it
  10. IMO it all depends on the time U have, and the tools U have. The last one I did I just pulled the rear drive shaft, knocked out the roll pins in the front axles, and slid the tranny back enough to get the cluch/fly wheel out and did it that way. Not hard at all, took about 3hrs start to finish with Adam NDJ helping me. And there was a LOT less stuff to mess with that way. If U have the time and the tools (cherry picker ect.) to pull the engine, then it would be a great time to pull it and adress any other issues it may have. Just my $.02
  11. That's to eazy So it just gets it's power from the + side of the coil, and then sends the signal back to it on the - side!?!?
  12. OK, I'm getting ready to strip out EVERY last wire from my EA81 wagon and make a new harness for it. But I need to know where the 2 wires from the dizy go to My harness is soooooo bad that I can't even trace them out Also, is all the ignition housed in the dizy, or is there an ignition box hiding some where that I haven't found? This is on an '82 DL wagon.
  13. How offten do U adjust the valves on a solid lifter EA81? And what do U set them too?
  14. 1 shifter = single range 2 shifters = D/R Look @ all the CV/DOJ boots, look to see if the cam seals are leaking, look @ the oil to make sure it's not grey (duh). I would say with that car what U see should be what U are geting, not to many hidden problems that I know of with that year/mdl. Happy hunting
  15. And I have an even better game plan for building the wagon Adam, loooooong time no see. Brian, sorry I mised your'e call. (stuck @ work, boss was out for the week ) Any one got a set of poly baja seats? Verry sorry to have mised the show, but the rest of my life got in the way, and I was broke. $$$=0000 I will be on the board alot more now, got some of my computer issues fixed.
  16. OK guys (Rouge Roos) BBQ @ my new house on Sun. the 18th BYOB, and bring what ever U want me to put on the grill, I will provide side dishes. The Party starts @ 5:30 PM. And I have a BIG suprise, U guys might not belive me unless U see it for your'e selves. And if any one knows how to get a hold of the Ashland guys do so and invite them as well.
  17. Wow! And I thought I had withdawelsThe brat looks cool, that's only the 2nd one I have ever seen lowerd. BBQ party @ my place on Sun. BYOB, BYO Meat.
  18. Well, after being off line for over a month I finally have internet accsess at home agan So what BIG things did I miss on the board?
  19. I'm moving, starting this weekend (moving out on Cocerbute Rd. ) So I will be tied up with that for a while Our #'s are growing We gota start geting back to a regular meet 2 X a month.
  20. When my '85 turbo had that problem it turned out to be a bad conection @ the coolant temp. sensor for the computer (not the one for the gauge) I cleaned it and put some dielectric grease on it and I never had that problem agan.
  21. I'm workin' Sat. but I should be by on Sun Can't wait to see how it's coming together
  22. My step dad is geting a 10-87 (I'm gessing that makes it an '88) GL PB 4WD Auto wagon. Being as he knows little of Subarus, and I don't want to drive the 120mi right now to go look @ it I have some questions. 1) what are the odds of it having FI? (it's a CA car if that makes a dif.) 2) It's still 4WD, not AWD right? 3) how hard is it to change out the head-liner? 4) is an '87 a 3AT or a 4AT?
  23. The intended use is to cap the open end of tube, like the feet on a folding chair, cruches, step laders, bar stools, ect. They have them that will fit over the air quick conects that I use on my on-board air sys. too Big-R- is hardware/farm suply store. But I have seen similar things @ Lowe's before too.
  24. Yup! They sell caps (for the end of tube, chair feet ect.) in black and white rubber, all diferent dia. It toulk me a few tries but I got just the right size and they work GREAT!
  25. My sis and her hubby live there, the cost of living sounds OK from what they tell me. And from what they say the crime rate isn't so bad (I thought it would be )
