    U-Joint play

    in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's

    Posted

    I'm in the middle of rehabbing my 78 brat, and as I was slapping the trannie back in I noticed that the rear U-joint has alot play in it. I know the driveshaft is only driven while in 4WD, so would a sloppy U-joint cause any drivabilty problems in 2WD on the street?

    Is the rear U-joint even avaliable seperatly, or do I have to get the complete drivesaft?

    Thanks.:banana:

    I built a second fuel tank for the WRX fuel pump and sender unit, im running the stock fuel pump to keep it full .

    it fits just under the box near the stock pump .

     

    WOW! That's creative. Why not build a whole new fuel tank to replace the stock one?

    I've seen pics of a Brat with a STi motor, but there is no good pics of frame mods.

    My EJ25 is a SOHC.

    I bought a STi V.4 RA front clip for my 93 Impreza, I was thinking about doing the same for the Brat.

    I just need to talk with somebody who has done it already.

    I've done several searches, but can not find any details.

    I have a 78 Brat, and I have a spare EJ25 with harness, ECU, and sub-frame.

     

    Do I need to modify the frame to get the EJ25 to fit? Can I use the orignal sub-frame? Or do I have to use the new one? I'm planning on using a late model 5 speed, and rear end. I know I have to get a driveshaft made, but what about the axles? Will they fit?

    Thanks.
