EA81 4spd to EA82 5spd swap roll call...
So whats the deal with the driveshaft? I hear one could put the longer ea82 driveshaft in your ea81 long platform vehicle without modification as long as you mount the carrier bearing. Am I searching wrong?

amphibious GL?
Hundred, hundred bucks, Yall! Might put an add in cl stating the project. One could possibly get a free car for the story! If I didn't have so many projects! 5spd swap and an ej swap i'm in the middle of on the car front. The Suboataru is, and has been, on my mind. I will have a spare ea81 engine soon so it wont matter if it runs.

If there is a way to PTO the rear diff, I'm down. I'm all over the idea. I want to take a 4wd, install a 2wd rear end, , extend the drive shaft for the prop, install a drop lever for the prop on the end of the drive shaft, to lower it, possibly a stick lever for steering, like on an old wood boat. But that is because I don't have the knowledge to add the PTO to the diff. Weld the doors, add a window controller as the key. A convertible coupe is the perfect platform for it. Just think 4th of july on the lake. No traffic on your way to work. Always finding parking.

Be careful. 1/4" glass will bow a lot, measurably.

On board air?
So I guess you just need to plumb in a oil filter, to get the oil out of the line on its way to your storage tank and plumb the discharge of that into a small oil retainer like on a nail gun (maybe not a plastic one as they get hot in a car) put the "self oiler" on the pump side of the air filter and if you run your air bags every day (if you have air ride suspension) you might want to check it every week or two. Then you can just run the compressor and bleed it to the oil retainer. The oil is only for the piston. Same for a york. This is what is running my neighbors air bag suspension system. He is using a york, every day. Its about the size of a gallon of milk but taller and on a v8. I forgot, your controller, pressure cutoff and on switch.

NW Washington offroad Stickers?????Or?????
The shield could be a shovel, have a front and rear axle, like a skull and bones,s bones and a jack centered. If you get fancy you could have it leaking oil. Jskddn. I like NW Subaru Offroad Club. Sounds professional. Might make ya money.

Anyone in Seattle with a blasting cabinet?
Small fee like what, how many items? Heck, I was thinking crossmember, set of rims, brush guard(s), bike frame, skid plate, (my crappy macco paint job on my wagon (I got the paint)), maybe my pug steelies, set of 5, if I can get them off the car I'm driving. I'm sure I can come up with a ton more, just give me time. I have a buddy who can do a bike frame or two at work, but, I hate to burden.

Well, a rental cost $200 a day, you buy your own sand. If everything is ready, booth is made, sand is purchased and on site parts are clean and ready it wont take a day or half day. You can rent saturday night and return monday morning for a half day charge, sometimes less, I've done that before on floor sanders.

Anyone in Seattle with a blasting cabinet?
I got some leads but I don't want to pay 75 a wheel myself. As it is I want to get my rims repaired. I'm thinking tool rental. Blast the crap out of a ton of stuff and paint at your leisure. The booth is easy.
-
Anyone in Seattle with a blasting cabinet?
Hey, I want the same thing. If I/you find a booth to rent wanna split the cost? I have a mini blaster but it would take a week per wheel.

Slammed hatch
That is one funny build thread! Crackers!

Why must my cars be so... aggravating
Naw, the newer is better ideology doesn't really work, look at your cast iron skillet or your grandmother. My DD is a lifted 82 wagon, about the $5grand mark they turn magically into reliable transpo.

Hello and help!
I've had luck with a torch and a can of airless air turned upside down. Heat the area hot and then freeze the bolt. If you dont have a thing to grab it wont work as easy outs expand the metal slightly.

On board air?
I have not yet found a good way to run 15 amps (compressor startup) out of my car without a second battery, solenoid, alt upgrade and a converter worth real change. (I want a skill saw) The aircon unit pushes like 200lbs, regulated to 150lbs and the thing wont sweat. Its already there and there is plenty of aftermarket stuff like adaptors and hoses. My neighbor runs his airbags off his with a 3 gallon tank and it works just fine. You hit the controller and pop! It will make you bounce in your seat and its like a 2ton+ car.

Air lift or "Air Ride" suspention! 3 wheel cornering and hoppers! Drive high and park low. No one can steal your car if its on the ground!

'85 Brat EJ22 swap (Pics included)
I was thinking about air struts. Spendy, but possible. An onboard air system would be way cool.

Bolt-in EA series Alternator upgrade. Nissan Maxima alt installation guide.
Now the ea81 pulley and spacer wont work right? One needs the extra length? I don't have an ea82 to look at right now, but I have been under the hood of my ea81 looking at my half exploded battery from my dying alternator. :banghead:Next!:-\
