  1. oh and the reason for the fail was the strut extension i used didnt have enough girth to handle the load. and i have no idea what kind of rims they are. baby moon knock offs maybe????? i got em for free. there 15 x 7 6 lug wheels
  2. yep you called it hah i figured it woulda held up better because of the other piece i pressed in so in a sense it was 1/8inch thick. but hey guess not lmao. it worked good for the 3 days that i had it : D
  3. ya pretty much. i literally just tossed my own sense of judgment out... i was kinda pissed coming home from motion industries(sell bearings) ( took your advice) and they wanted 25 bucks a bearing. which surprised me. so i asked about sealed ones. 35 bucks.... grr.... and they had cheapy made in china ones for 8 bucks and i said no to that cuz i want somthing with some quality. well the lift broke and now im better. lmao
  4. i broke it about an hour ago does that count???? heres the carnage...... http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=115207
  5. i stopped hard in my driveway and my redneck lift told me go beep beep myself. honestly it made my day im laughing about it right now actually... got a photobucket account now too......
  6. you could have a warped rotor and a caliper stickn. or a broken belt in one of your tires. just a thought.
  7. my hatch has now conquered gravity. by replacing the lift cylinder of course no major feat by far but i did do somthing to my subie oh got one of the more honey combish style grilles off a sedan too. : D looks way better than the straight ones plus its black and goes with my white real well. i dig it
  8. thanks for the offer but im a diy kinda guy besides ive changed them b4 they really arent that hard, and you guys were right after i changed that ball joint it still grrs at me. kudos and thanks for the input
  9. did a 2 inch suspension lift on the front with some redneck custom strut extenstions it turned out pretty good. camber isnt as bad as i figured on it being changed a lower ball joint too... which was completly fried. id swear there was at least an 1/8 inch of play. the one pic with extension next to shock was cut shorter obviously but everthing fit nice and tight.
  10. sorry i was thinking like a sloppy ball joint causing the camber to vary because the noise goes away when the weight shifts off one side. which also makes sense with the wheel bearing or maybe a tie rod end ball joint being loose messing with the toe in and out. but hey thats probably just the side of me that hopes it isnt a wheel bearing
  11. so driving straight down the road there is a wierd roaring sound (like an intense version of knobby tire noise) coming from the front of my 87 wagon. but if i go around a right hand turn it goes away and sounds smooth and quiet like it should be. im very certain its a ball joint. just not sure which one. any ideas???
  12. well my alternator is goin shnitz up( this is my 4th one....) i changed a wheel stud about 10 minutes ago. oh and my hood latch cable jsut broke.......
  13. ya all you guys a great : D im totally addicted. i never got into face book : D guess i was the rebel child that went against the grain haha.
  14. fixed the exhaust leak. now i just need to fix my power steering mount or get another one. it cracked so my pump pulley would rock forward into the radiator fan. clickclickclickclickclickclickclick. so as of right now no power steering.
  15. i just adjusted the float level and now it doesnt run lean YAY! weber swap is done. now if i can just fix that damn exhaust leak.....
  16. 27inch tires on drilled six lug rims 6inch daylighters reasonably sized spair as apposed to the factory spair. stock suspension tailight gaurds(function somewhat to a degree) stripped interior stock drivetrain ea82 carbed glass pack exhaust 15inch custom tube sub. powered by an old 500watt clarion amp stragetically placed dents for aerodynamic advantages : D (sorry camera phone sucks)
  17. hahah ouch sorry but thats funny. I changed out my 15inch sub for a different sub cuz the one in the pic started fri'n hah.
  18. dude bad rump roast header pipe. im gonna put two inch lift blocks under my subie today
  19. the air tank is for an air starter since it dont have a battery : D. he can steer it with an e brake cable to each side tires. hes gonna mount an old school spring steel tractor seat on the rear rear diff. haha idk im just jabbn
  20. hey now that "gas tank seems a lil sketchy to be subaru hah jsut givn you ************. thats b-a
