because they're artistic, and AWESOME!!!! even if not that impressive from an offroading/hardcore standpoint.

Hell yea!!! just like to say that I was recording during all three shots very happily in the spectators position for this trip! <-- (first time the chuxwagon has left that ORV park undamaged!) also, you should all know that that pic where the 'mudwagon' is at such an extreme angle, the ground is level under the back wheels. the one on the passenger side is really that far off the ground!!! looks awesome...any good shots of my wagon? I've got a few good ones of you, I'll post 'em from the high-speed @ school tomorrow.

I happen to notice that my ol' '85 had the squiters in the grill, and the '88 had 'em on the hood...and the little holes were there on the '88. so I've had 2 sets of squirters since the beginning of this beast...works awesome!!

Those are sweet pics!!! I love the one of the emblem, very cool! looks like you had a great time!

noob question about boxer sound

most of it isn't, except the y...to get it to seal completly (which you're going to need to if you can justify having a snorkel...)

Project Cheap:Build Lifted 86' GL Sedan Advice + Build
Numbchux replied to DrKrazy's topic in Members Rides
sweet!! what's that light I see on the front?? looks like you've got one fog light under the license plate... -
mine either...when I had mine (before it stopped working ), I literally had it velcro'd to the dash above the heat controls. and ran the wires out from behind the clock. I'll look for a pic found one, it's in the dark, but the red display is the CB...

don't forget porsche, and honda motorcycles (might just be the goldwing) -
no, can't disengage it without removing it... torxxx, I'm not sure what you mean by the 'bottom strut nut' I just pound out the pins, and slide it off the stubs, with my high clearance aa lift, there's almost enough axle angle/DOJ play that I can get the cups off the stubs without jacking up the car. this will change some when I add the SJR diff shim.

cool idea, but I bet building it will be quite difficult...good luck!!

I hate ABS, although there are some days in the winter here that it would be nice (Duluth has been called little san fran a number of times)
-
it's right there in my sig... I measured them as just shy of 27...some tire calculators call 'em 27.7, some sites say 215/75/r15 = 28...so I call 'em 28s yes, I realize it's not the biggest tire anyone's ever run, but I haven't done any trimming, just a little bashing.

Numbchux replied to DrKrazy's topic in Members Rides
looks awesome!!! lots of room at that rear tire! just trim out the back of the wheel well, and you'll be good to roll! -
??? I can almost take my axle off without jacking up the car, certainly without lifting a tire off the ground!

3/16" just for the record. -
The truth about sway bars....
Numbchux replied to TurboXT's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I've done many a long freeway trip in my 4" lifted, swaybarless wagon. They're DEFINATELY optional. there's one bridge on 35 where I usually drive that goes diaganolly, so the front tires don't hit the expansion joint at the same time. it's a little scary at 80+, but not enought that I worry about it. -
it is sweet, eyesore's hatch has 2 tips on either side, just in front of the rear tire...I'll see if I can find a pic from MW3... about flattened tail pipes...think about it, and go look at the rockers...pretty scratched and dented eh??? if it's not, you're not trying. it's much more protected in the stock location!!! here's one... and another: look how exposed they would be to...say a log...or rock!

I went wheeling a couple weeks ago with 7 people, 2 dirtbikes, 1 ATV (with a picky driver....didn't want a passenger) and my wagon....4 people, plus extra gas for the bikes, tools, spare parts/tire....I was rubbing like mad, but only in the back

91 Loyale Not Pulling When Out of 4WD
Numbchux replied to jsspice's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
quite honestly, I've had the best luck with junkyard axles. preferrably from FWD cars. although I wouldn't recommend trying to pull a JY axle unless you've had some experience. -
Allied Armament Christmas Group buy Notification
Numbchux replied to Shadyirishmen's topic in Products for your Subaru
do you have a pic of the swing gate with a tire on it? where do you mount the lisence plate?? -
nope, no issue.... ok, I know what you're talking about, but I don't know why people still think it's an issue. so I'll post this pic again, it makes it pretty obvious. Yes, the rear tire is closer to the front of the wheel well than the back. but it can't get any closer...I've put a big red dot right where the trailing arm pivot point is, the hub cannot get any closer to this point, therefore the tire clearance doesn't matter there. and here are a couple articulation pics of the two rear tires of my car right after the lift. upflex: and downflex: notice how the tire never get's any closer to the front, I have rub marks on my mudflap, and a few nicks in the tire from the top of the fender, but it's never touched the front, and it never will.

This is how the USMB is becoming, too many people with too much ego. this has become a place for advance fact, not helpful opinions...that's why I haven't posted on this thread, or many others.

91 Loyale Not Pulling When Out of 4WD
Numbchux replied to jsspice's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
agreed, try this, but even if the castle nut isn't spinning, look under the car, follow the CV axles from the tranny, out to the hub. part of one side will probably be spinning, see where it stops spinning (i.e. axle spinnig, outer cv cup not...)
