There's a good idea, I'll try that

I'm having some serious trouble getting the springpins out of the rear axles on my wagon, it's very possible that they are origional, and very rusted on. Any ideas? I'm thinking I may have to drill them out, but I have no experience with something this precise, I need the axle and diff stubs to be usable. Thanks

how about tow points? can I get the bumper now...and the swing later?

mine's daily driven....2 whole gas tanks so far! just a few squeeks and clunks...

Will do! I'll be bringing my camera!

Yea!! I've got 3 over 150k, and one that's 220k

I'm looking very seriously into it...we'll see how it goes

I think the "problem" (this is just me thinking again, correct me if I'm wrong). The BYB lift was designed for an EA81, then retrofitted/modified to fit the EA82. the problem being that EA82's have a different design, meaning that when the crossmember's are lowered, things become unprotected. This lift was designed on/for an EA82, and takes that into account. turnes out my uncle has some 27-28" All-Seasons that he had on his astro van before he sold it. 5 of them too! so he's going to sell those to me, along with a CB (I might go new, but we'll see), and old GPS (speedometer!).

I beleive it's just a different trim level. usually associated with things like turbos, digidashes, sunroofs, FT4WD.......but not necessarily

Well, there will be 2 of us, we're planning around it, and we will be only one car, even if she get's a subie by then, we're not driving 2 cars down there. so one car, one tent, very limited requirements, even willing to split a site with someone else if that's possible. what can I say, I'm a college kid! oh yea, and THANKS MICK!!!!!!!

unfortunately, the 5 speeds are spoken for, it's the 3AT that'll need a home....sorry

I think so, I haven't been there in years, certainly not since we've owned any subies, but the owners know every car out there, and what's left on it, and we got a FWD 3AT for our loyale from up there, and I think there's another one there too, I'd have to check the phone book for more info at all....

DOH! sorry man....well, this car also needs to get me back and forth to Duluth (3 hour drive from here at my parents house in the Twin Cities), a few times this summer, not to mention the only state-funded (or something....public) ORV park in MN is about an hour north of Duluth! so it needs to be a comfortable road car aswell, maybe no swampers yet, until I have an XT6 or something for a daily driver WOA!!! design flaw?!?! who said anything about a flaw, it was intentional, he messed with the geometry of the car to get INSANE ground clearance! if you want to maintain your geometry and keep you fenders intact, go get a BYB lift....not to badmouth them, but it's another option, that has it's own pros and cons, personally, the AA lift is exactly what I was looking for!!!

well, unfortunately, most of these friends are useless morons when it comes to cars....BUT.....there's a good yard in alexandria minnesota that would probably have the tranny (that's where we got the tranny for my loyale when it needed it), and the tranny swap is a pretty straightforward job, if you have tools and a garage, making it virtually impossible for a college student, but easy/relatively cheap for a garage, have him call around the area and ask how much to replace a tranny with one you already have. unfortunately all my friends are down here in the twin cities for summer break, so that probably won't help.

yea, I suspected there aren't, any word on that XT6 at upull? otherwise I may call "subaru heaven" and see what I can dig up. as for what I have.....lots of ea82 wagon stuff....I have 3 now, and will be parting out one into the other ('85 D/R under '92 3AT FWD) so all extra parts from that will be available, 2 sets of fugly 13" steelies with assorted tires on them....name your part, I'll check the inventory

and having looked at my own wagon vs. those pics, I think he could cut off quite a bit still, and I'll back him up on the travel thing, that spot were the tire is closest is also where the control arm attaches to the unibody, it CAN'T get any closer there, that's why the tire's brought forward with the lift, then it goes back with the suspension.... shardy....how much did those tires run you? how are they on road? I have a new source of cash and am thinking about getting some swampers, or saving up, and having that as my last mod....after all, I do need bumpers, somewhere to put my spare, 2 more bike attachments for the roof rack, tabs for roof lights, speakers, LSD, breathers............... he he, I see you're still running rear drums! Ha HA HA, I'm sooo sorry, yea, I swapped the rear discs over, along with the braided SS lines, today.....mmmmmmmmmm

I have some friends that go to UND, I'll inquire....

I'll take an LSD, assuming I can't get one at the UPull-a-thon

ok, I finished the motor work, got all the fluids in, and full etc. then I messed around with the linkage. There's an adjustment bolt on the bottom of the linkage, I loosened it, and let it slide to it's loosest position, and that helped alot. Then I straightened out the 4WD selecter lever, and took out ALL of the console in the middle (it's cool, I was going to convert to dual e-brake anyway) and got all of my gears back, threw on the pugs and parked it up on a stack of the tires it came on.....yay for you local guys: I'll be out at firestone on friday night.....if anyone would like to see it! oh yea, and check out my cool 4WD decal on my fairing!

OK, tomorrow morning, I will! got it running....no coolant, so I can't run it long (need a rad hose first), but I put it in neutral and let out the clutch to spin the tranny, and it still won't go in gear! I've got another idea to try in the morning, and then.....well, I don't know

Well, my family has a number of rental properties, probably some available...I shall consult with the powers that be around here...hope to go muddin with you some time this summer!

Yea, My loyale has that....butit's a 3AT.....it's nice!

I know man...neither can I, picked up all the parts today, put in the oil pump (with it's new gaskets) today, and hopefully can do the rest tomorrow, or into sunday morning.....then I can test it out next week!

put us down for one site...

either of you guys have pics of the mechanics of this, or would you find them??? I'd really appreciate that!
