Hi All. I am doing my first CV Joint swap next weekend and remembered someone putting up a guide on how to do subie CV's a few months back. I have searched the forums and can't seem to find it so if anyone has a link to a guide on doing a CV Joint on a subaru (preferably an EA82) that would be great as I think I know what I am doing but would be nice to follow a guide/instructions just to be on the safe side. Thanks Alot

Love the wheels! Are they the standard 4 stud subie pattern? do you know what they are called?

getting all that paint on the rotors can't possibly be good for them

My Tach's wiring is like this: * One wire to the Positive of the ignition coil. * One wire to the negative of the ignition coil. * One wire to the negative of the battery. Simple as that.

Turns out the struts/springs were just dry (its summer here and its been around 100 degrees Fahrenheit here all week.) bathed them in WD-40 and no more sqeak

Will do thanks.

To all who likes the wheels. Apparently they are Momo Vegas but never been able to confirm that. Yeah they are pretty rare in aus too. Pretty much the only good looking alloys you can get in that stud pattern. I have had so many people want to buy them off me but I am not getting rid of them (Got lucky at some local wreckers who didn't know how rare and valuable they were and got the set for $150AU)

Hi All. My Loyale Wagon has recently developed a squeak coming from the rear springs/shocks. They are only 8 months old so they are not in bad shape they just squeak while driving (my street is a little bumpy so its pretty annoying). Anyone have any ideas what I could be and how I could fix it. Thanks Alot.

Yep, the previous owner had it since it was new and only ever drove to the shops and back so it was always treated well. Nah no lift for me (I will on the MY Wagon if I get one for offroading). But if anything I will lower this one down the track as its my road car.

Well, just finished my latest project (All but the right hand CV joint which is getting done next week). I have been slowly working on the L Series (Loyale for all of you in the US) for a couple of years now and making my own little modifications along the way. Mods: * SAAS Hood Scoop * 13" Momo Vega Alloy Wheels * Boss Steering wheel * Modified front grille. * Pioneer Head Unit + 2x DNA 160W Speakers + iPod Dock * Navman S150 GPS (Mounted under head unit) * SAAS Gear Boot * Gen 1 Liberty Gear Knob * SAAS Pedals * 3" Tacho * Immobilizer * Removed the bullbar that came with it and put the stock bumper on (PM me if anyone wants to buy the bullbar) * 3" Straight pipe + 5" Canon Muffler I'm happy with the EA82 engine for now as its running perfectly (just did a 3000km trip round victoria without a hitch). If the engine ever has any issues I will consider an EJ but which its running fine there isn't much point upgrading. This is a road L Series it will not be used 4WDing. (I am sourcing an old MY Wagon as a dedicated offroader now this one is done) as this one has no dents or rust and is completely straight so I don't want to ruin if offroading.

Your best bet would be to source one of the new Suby diesel engines. It wont be cheap though.

ouch. Sorry to hear that. My front R/H joint has gone. This is the list of things I have to fix over the next couple of months: * CV Joint * replace all boots (they are split) * wheel bearings * rear bushes * Front and rear struts * Rack shaft All up going to cost me around $1600 AU So I feel for you

Did you have to do much alterations to the seat rails to fit the sparco seats? I am looking to something similar with my wagon.

My List: * Strange steering rack shudder * Right hand CV Joint. * Replace air filter that is almost black And I thought I had problems haha
