Oh that's simple enough I think I plan on getting a new flywheel just because no telling how much has been going on. both cars I had, had a bad TOB.

Is a pilot puller needed to get the bearing out?

I have a hidden hitch on my 97 OB but it's rusted and I have nothing to tow so I'm looking to remove it because I think it blocks things when you put on a larger exhaust? How many bolts hold on the hitch?

Are the clips required? I've seen many installs without them which makes me think not really but puts more wear on the transmission housing?

The input shaft when the pedal is pressed the input shaft should stop turning right? If you still hear the sound then it would be the TOB right? I'm not sure how the exedy kit is but does it come with a clip for the TOB? most installs I've seen on Subaru's I don't see any clips at all.

Thats a pretty smart idea to try takes the guess work out of guessing.

I can't 100% confim but I think that shifter bushing linkage is part # 35041AC110 I need to doubble check with the dealer since the opposedforces.com site just calls it Rod-complete gear shift

not sure what it is but i doubt its a exedy

When I was under the car I was wondering why the women was turning away.. I found out it was because her uncle died because this car slipped off the jack. Having said that and her uncle worked on the car and its a new clutch and all I think I'm just going to buy a new clutch again... I did buy ultra gray but I'm going to use it for something else. I'd have to look at that thread again but the bearing is the one after the rubber seal right? Because I don't think a little rubber ring would be $65 Also how much permatex anearobic do I need? is (I think it's) the 5 oz is that enough?

car sounded like this just sitting idle from the tranny area.

Oh man I went to go check this car out photos.. sorry forgot to take some in the inside but black leather no sunroof (no biggie) and heated seats and outdoor mirrors. I went to see the car (paid for) No HG leak.. only thing is the tranny was like bone dry so I went out and put in 2 qt of diff fluid.. Anyways while I did not drive the car more then 2 Ft forward and backwards I had no problems with 1st, 2nd or getting into reverse.. HOWEVER in neutral or any gear the tranny makes this sound I'm so sorry I did not do a video on my phone I forgot all about it.. the closest sound I can describe it as being a rotating sound from what sounds like from inside the tranny.. I'm not sure if it would be the TOB I felt the tranny case and I did not feel that much vibration so it could be the TOB? Anyways 2 Qt got me up to the middle of the diff dipstick. Also no HG issues that I can see of but I did not let it fully warm up since the gas was very low and the light was on but good thing I brought my HF jump pack with me since the battery was flat. other then that above it looked good.

Update! Im looking at the car the tranny in N makes a metal running sound but I noticed no diff fluid.. Did move forward and backwards but did not try anything else.. If I can just find a auto place to get diff fluid. Sorry on mobile

ok well time to go pick this car up

Like everyone else is saying the check engine light should show if you just turn the car to on.. if it does not its missing or blown.. messing with the connectors is not going to do anything at all..

Ah ok got it

As long as the cam timing marks are lined up i should be ok right? I can't remember how it was with the SOHC but like if I say rotate one cam around one revolution and lined it back up it should line up the same each time?

heh that happened to me once when I had my 95 drained the battery but it never happened again and I tried my hardest to make it stick again.. never got a replacement so I can't tell you if they will still do it free.. I'm sure they would if they dust off the old TSB book for this year.

yeah I think mine were missing I never saw anything so I found away to keep it out of the way

ah Permatex 29208 it's cheaper online then the store besides it's going to rain tomorrow and the weekend so very little work is going to get done.. plus I gotta pick up some taller jackstands one with at least a 22" max lift oh btw the rear oil separator is plastic

also make sure none of the wiring is hanging down near the axles.. I'm not sure if mine was factory but my wire was so long it was rubbing on the passenger side drive axle and I caught it before it wore out the wire (got the protective sleeve)

First of all carfax and all the clones are expensive for what's really just showing you past info.. having said that I know what I need to do as far as the transmission as talked about in this thread http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=121920 but given this is a Ej25D I gotta check the normal things they are put down over... HG. my question is the valves and how to adjust them really which is why I made this thread.. I mean how many owners really do that? is the adjustment like every 100K or 105K miles? The shim piece I'm just using a feeler between the lobe and the shim right? I'm going to ask about the timing belt but just in case I get the "I don't know" I'm looking over the service manual here and I'm not sure how the DOHC is... but it says not to rotate the intake and exhaust cams after the belt is off, but if I remember wont one side be under load? I know when I did mine on the EJ22 it was easy as pie but I had to keep it so it would not snap back. I mean if I gotta remove the cam sprockets to replace the seal behind it, it's going to move.. if I'm reading right the passenger side when rotating the cams will have the valves open but the drivers side will be closed when lined up? I know I will triple check by rotating the engine by hand to double check

What is the right stuff? three bond I've never seen locally..

can I use RTV to seal the tranny back up?
