My tires are too big.
Olnick replied to starfox5194's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXAccording to one calculator site I use, your actual speed will be 15.7% faster than your speedometer reading. When speedo shows 60mph you'll be doing 69.4!!!

2 door Outback
Olnick replied to El Mongoose's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXFascinating idea! Who knows, might be really good looking. Do you have any friends with "Photoshop" skills? Give them a good side shot or 3/4 view of your wagon and see what they can do. And of course let us see too!

broken boot big deal?
Olnick replied to efseiler's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXBut a car is just a big, dumb (albeit cute and lovable) animal. It depends entirely on its Master to provide and care for it. Why waste your money on a split boot and the labor to install it? Get a quality rebuilt genuine Subaru axle to start with and save money in the long run. MWE in Denver is an excellent source by the way. But whichever way you go, good luck.

broken boot big deal?
Olnick replied to efseiler's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXJust be aware that the "split boot" is an inferior solution! I don't think anyone who knows cars would ever recommend using them. Good luck!

would center hole on wheel being too large cause a problem?
Olnick replied to afterbang's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXYou might want to consider "hub centric rings" to hold the wheels on center. I just googled it and came up with this for example: http://www.justforwheels.com/hub-centric-rings.jsp My wife's Maxima has them to position the alloy wheels and believe me, if one ring gets lost the car is virtually undrivable. (Ask me how I know. Just don't ask me why I ever went to Sam's Club for tires in the first place!)

Clutch Part Questions
Having clutch replaced in my '95 Legacy Wagon. Want to make sure I give them the right info. In the attached Opposed Forces graphic, is #8 (Clip-clutch sleeve, 30539AA000) the famous "clip" that must be replaced with new? Is this a dealer-only part? Is the pilot bearing usually replaced with a clutch job--is it dependent on condition or just wise to do anyway? Thanks all.

95 legacy bogging out
Olnick replied to Maleki777's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXYup--in rush hour traffic at the busiest corner in Honolulu! Had to push the Legacy across 3 lanes of oncoming traffic into a parking lot. But it was a nice experience, a few people even blew their horns--I think they were trying to show moral support!!! :cool: That was years ago. Replaced the ECTS and the car has run like new ever since.
