I could try thet. I was just so mad by the end of the day that I kinda just gave up. I'll try going back tomorrow and getting it. Thanks for all the ideas, they have helped!!

So there's an LSD at the local junkyard (Thanks NVBigBlue) and I went to go nab it oof the car today. Well everything went alright except I can't get the rear axles to slide out of the A-arm. The axles are frozen with dirt/rust to the differential and WERE frozen to the A-arm except I whacked the crap out of it with a big piece of exhaust. I got the axles loose from the a-arm, but I don't have enough room to have them slide through. I need like about 4 inches more. What can I do? I've already unbolted the diff from the frame, so should I try to jack it back up to its normal position, or leave it down low on the ground? Thanks for the help.

Welcome to the club! I'm sure you'll find lots of info for your ssob! Enjoy.

Dang. Too bad they don't make wheel wells for brats, cause mine is GONE.

Its WELL worth the wait. You'll be happy when it comes and I'm sure you'll have fun with it.

Thats awesome! brings back memories of my own!

Thats great stuff.

I'd gladly pay for a set of fenders as well.

Yeah most of them do. With your Legacy, you're probably gonna want to call mudrat79 for lift options, and he can send you decent instructions. He's ALWAYS willing to help out as well, so if you have any problems give him a call and he'll be more than willing to lenda ya a hand over the phone. Search for him on this site and you should be fine.

Its lookin like it's an EA71 if its a 1600. There should be an engine code on there somewhere if you've got it pulled already.

What years were Brats offered as turbos? I know 1984, is that the only year? How about Automatic trannies? What years for those? Thanks.

I saw that too, Really needs an engine.

Well......depending on how much of a mechanic you are... and EJ22 would be nice, but take a LOT of time and knowledge to pull off. If you want someone else to do it, better make sure you have LOTS of money to spare, as that swap is relatively hard. Otherwise the same ol EA81 is probably your best bet. An Ea82 swap probably won't be out of the question, but there are some who don't think they make good off road engines for mud cause they have timing belts. I'd just find another low mileage EA81, and throw it in there.

Any plans or news when a new vid is gonna be released? Just thought I'd ask. The first 5 are simply amazing.

NV Zeno has about 300,000 on his wagon. I have a DL wagon with 230,000 on it and my 81 brat died with 226,000 miles on it. Thats as much as I've ever seen.

thats the first I've actually SEEN of that guy's lift kits. He was supposed to be at wcss, but never showed.

Sweet!

I was searchin around and found this jacked up brat: Here's the link to his site: http://www.angelfire.com/on4/bushy5550/lift.html

Here's a link I found for a snow plow for subaru's. Seems like they make one for Bajas, Legacy's and others. Don't know about earlier models though. http://www.solotec.com/pi.html

Thanks a bunch

I pm'ed you about some bumpers for my brat but haven't heard back. That was probably a week ago. I've also tried calling, but the number is always busy. Thanks for the help.

That'd be awesome! I think you need ANOTHER rx now, one for street and one offroader.

All right, thanks.

I'm trying to install a new water pump, but I can't get the old one off because the Bypass and the radiator hose don't want to come off. I have pulled and pulled, but I don't think they want to come. Whats the best way to get them off? Should I just run to the hardware store and get new hoses? Thanks.

Thats funny. They caught him right?
