5SPD D/R transmission into '92 Loyale project
It would with some mod, but are you talking about the 4 spd d/r? If so it's not worth it, the 5 spd is much stronger

Top notch work!!! That's awesome. It's gotta be the only off road WRX. Keep us updated on your projects, they seem to be super exciting!!!! Do you get any rubbing from those tires at all?

92 Loyale Moral support Needed
Yeah, easy fix. Throw a light in there and call it good! If you wanna be fussy, that's pretty thin sheet metal right there, just remover light, and bend back into place. Good luck!!!

84 GL front turn signal covers: clear vs. amber
yup, you got it!! So if you are dead set on getting the clear lenses, then you need to get amber bulbs.

84 GL front turn signal covers: clear vs. amber
Yours were changed out to amber lenses to make them legal. In stock app the blinkers are in the bumper, but because you have an aftermarket bumper, someone rewired your corner lights to be blinkers. So they have to stay amber, or get clear lenses and get amber bulbs.

I haven't seen very many with the amber lenses. I haven't had a hard time finding those bulbs, seems like any auto parts store should have them. I have seen them in several colors. I had clear lenses on my Brat, and I think they just had clear bulbs in them.

How deep do I set brake pistons?
When I do it, I use the needle nose pliers as well. I don't have the tool for it. So I know how slow it can be!! Just keep at it, you'll get it.

How deep do I set brake pistons?
Glad I could help!! It might be that you will need to screw them in all the way to get the new pads to fit, but it really doesn't matter, as long as you can slide the caliper down over the pads your fine. Good luck!!!

How deep do I set brake pistons?
As long as you can get the pads on that's far enough. But make sure that the piston is turned the right way. They should be horizontal.

Markus56 getting lifted!!
They are actually used for moving the tops to the inside. This is to take care of the camber issue that you would get if you just dropped the strut straight down

my sickness has worsened, or, a new acquisition
When I did my rockers, I bent up sheet metal. I used metal cut out from the roof of another Subaru. Just take lots of measurements and bend away! It does help to use a sheet metal break though

newest addition, ie: another hatch
In Maine, we don't need the title if it's over 15 years old. Just a bill of sale!

:lol:I love it, you gotta rub it in!! Send the rust free hatch body to the crusher. what a guy. It's good to hear you were able to keep your silver one though. It turned out real nice.

Well I believe that's a slant radio console. But the rocker, you just cut them open and weld new stuff in. Make sure it's jacked up evenly so the body won't be tweaked at all. But you don't have to drill any spot welds, just cut out and weld new in. I did both mine on my Brat

Eric's trail wagon build, 56K b/w!
With narrow rims and wider tires you have less of a chance of pinching the tire on the rim and blowing out your sidewall. As long as you use a decent tire, it shouldn't be a problem
