I replaced both CV's and now the popping is down to a minimum, last axles where wayyyy past dead. I LOVE to hear NO CLICKING and POPPING, EVERYBODY REPLACE CV's:banana: make a new song out of it....haha -Nomad

yeah its a pretty sweet ride when they are done....I want a turbo subaru.... -nomad

Yeah I did both sides yesterday and one side went on NO hitch, drivers side, where there is less access and you have to crawl under to put axle on the tranny, I COULDN'T get it to sit on the tranny right and I was getting soooooo PISSED cuz I thought they gave a me 1 good axle and 1 turbo axle....... Short story short: Line them holes up and they go on like butta, have it 180 degrees off and it will start to fit then just get JAMMED. But I got 2 new axles and rollin CLICK FREE!!! -Nomad

Pulled these out: no cv: NEW LEGS!!! and no POPPING (been months!!!) the hub before (the rustiness bothered me): hub after: -Nomad

"blacked out" logo.....

Some sweet "newer" subys on a repair show I found on youtube.com, cool footage I think....Its in Australia -nomad

TOD? -Nomad

I guess it could be the tires but I think they are pretty even, might be time to rotate them but i have never heard this noise before and thats why it worried me, It doesn't bind or anything when I turn just "POPS" when I take it outta 4wd.....New axles tomorrow:banana: -Nomad

oh I got a BADDD cv joint, getting new ones on Saturday, 2 of them, gonna keep the one thats good still for the spare. might get some new bearings while I'm at it........ -Nomad

Maybe this is about to happen? cuz it kinda seem to beem from the axle right there, my tires are just little stock guys and should be up to pressure, so you guys are saying its pretty normal or should I go play with it on some dirt/mud? changing both cv's might reduce this noise, yes? (and not laying off fry pavement switches) -Nomad

bump......

Like a pretty nasty clunk? Its just like 1 soild clunk. kinda like the cv joint is catching up or something.....you would think it would make a noise engaging, not disengaging -Nomad

thats scary!!!!!, but I have disengaged it MANY times and never experienced this noise....

It goes IN just fine, but when coming OUT it "clicks" or "pops" just one time and then its fine again... -Nomad

I believe AWD, I don't have the high low box.....just on the fly button on the stick..... -Nomad

yeah it was on the road, but at low low speed, I have done it before with no problem OR NOISE, but now its making a pretty bad noise.....nothing is wrong with the tranny is it?

I went to the junk yard and pulled off some RX springs and next is the accord springs (next pay day), Ordered 2 NEW cv joints :banana:. they come in Saturday!! -Nomad

I was out at teh junk yard today getting some RX springs for my car and I hit the button to kick it into awd, did a little dirft, back into 2wd for the highway, later the same day, kicked it into AWD no problem, then I clicked it out for 2wd, and CLICK,...it makes a kinda hard shift or something when going back into 2wd, did it a copuple times and it pops/clicks every time.......am I low on some fluids? something about to go out? Kinda sounds like its coming from the axles/close to the tranny......... -Nomad

type of wrenching: broken knuckles experience: almost a year:grin: (Capital R in rookie, but I'm on my way down the correct path:banana:) -Nomad

Hey I'm here in Boise, I called a guy about a week ago, older dude, He had a running XT6 and a spare one for parts. MIGHT be the same guys....IF you need some help from an Idahoian PM me or something! I'm willing to help like Ski said (Wish I found a tailgate for him) but yeah, let me know.... -Nomad

This is correct, no more brats at the Nampa junk yard...They are starting to crush others as well.... -Nomad

the woman says I must do my chores before I can go play, so I will be heading out there later today, I think I'm going to hit up a couple different ones because I got nothing to do, besides clean the house:eek: but I will text you some pics if they have it....... I will see if there is extra trim pieces but Ski has 1st dibs, but I will keep a eye out for sure..... -Nomad

Alright, I will check probably tomorrow, if you give me your cell number I can send a photo easier. if not I will try to post it on here... -Nomad

saw couple brats in a yard over here in Idaho, I can check here in the next couple days if you don't find anything by then, I'm not to knowledgeable with the brat so can your send a picture of what your looking for? I don't know what the gen difference is between gates so I don't wanna swoop the wrong one...... -Nomad

as long as you drive subaru, you alright by me. -Nomad
