Sorry doe the confusion. The party is all weekend, But My friend is coming in on thursday and leaving for home sunday morning, around noon. So it looks like saturday would be the best day for evyone t be there. But otherwise, any time is fine.

We're good. I don't think there was any worry. The fire was closer to doyle than anywhere else. But Thanks for the heads up and the kind wrds.

It looks like saturday i the day fo sure. Looks to be a good weekend, I'll make sure to have all the stuff for a bbq ready.

yeah do you hate me or what? I just need to get those parts ordered before next thursday. Give me a call.

its time to get a meet/wrenchfest at my place and discuss our planbs for the show and everything. I plan on having a guest as well in town that weekend, someone who I think everyone will want to chat with and hang out with. July 25th and 26th, with a BBQ and all that fun stuff too.

Yeah, I was like "What Brian's helping me put a tranny in my car what?" SWEET! Yeah I just drilled a hole, used a spacer, and found a bolt. easy enough. The onlt things to watch for when getting a kit from Jerry - make sure the shift linkages you send him are from an 83+. Apparently they're different than an 82. And make sure you have the flywheel from an 83+ as well, its bigger than an 82's.

Yeah sorry guys, I ended up working on the cars this weekend, trying to get one ready for the show as well as a DD. I would like to meet up, so just let me know or just show up sometime.

wasn't ther an xt6 messageboard a while back? I can't seem to find anything using google. thanks.

I wouldn't say it was. Lifted subaru safe - yes, but not for stockers, there were a few spots that unnerved me in the scout. But that sounds fun. I'll look at a few maps tonite and see what's cool out there.

Ok yes that is the plan then. Where do we want to go? I'm up for anything anywhere.

Which 5 speed are you going to use? A 5 speed from any ea82 car will bolt in (minus the tranny x-member) without having to get custom axles. If you are going to swap in a legacy AWD tranny, then I think you have to get custom axles.

I was always under the impression that onn ANY BLM property you are able to have campfires and that only on NFS (Forest service) land are you required to have a permit for a fire.

This is all going into the USRM right? Nice build mick. maybe I should abandon the scout and swap it all into one of the bazillion brats I have.

Yeah at this point, I might have to take the scout. I was thinking of going somewhere down by you greenley, maybe south of gardnerville, then Brian wouldn't have too far to go. But any suggestions are helpful too, I just want to camp.

When getting custom axles made, how much of a factor is in balancing the shafts? Would it wear the seals and things a lot faster if the axle shaft was unbalanced?

Is there any difference/advantage in using legacy struts in place of impreza struts in the front?

Yup stocker friendly. I don't need to be going anywhere crazy right now.

Who wants to go camping? I want to. Lets set something up before the show. Maybe a wrenchfest, but I'm thinking more of a camping trip somewhere. What do you say? maybe 2 weekends from now?

I asked for Friday, the 28th off, and Monday, Tuesday, and wednesday, the 31st, 1st, and 2nd of september off. That should give me time to get up there and back.

To sound like a broken record, I am in the same boat. I am working on getting the brat running well enough to get me up there and back. I have incentive as well, my sister wants to go up this year. My plan is this: Leave Thursday after work around 5 or so, drive as far as I can that night, then the rest of the way friday. Stay at the show and leave sunday afternoon, and head back, spend 2 or 3 days coming back and by the time I am tired of being on the road, I'll be home.

I want know how to clean some parts. I've never done it. I have a engine x-member that has 20+ years of grease and grime on it and I want it to look like new. What do I do? I don't have a pressure washer or a parts washer, but that'd be nice I'm sure.

Yeah is it me or is it getting late this year? I need to request time off and the such if I'm going to make it.

In for sunday

My toy scout, or real scout?:

The weekend of the 16th works better for me too. I'm going to be doing some camping this coming weekend (the 9th/10th) and then me too camping memorial day weekend. So yeah, I'm down. I need another LSD.
