back to the dark side
sounds like you need a first gen legacy wagon. these can be had for less than 1K most of the time and parts in the junkyard are becoming just as plentiful, if not more so than the old loyale/gls.

front wheel sound
there is a cone washer and a spring washer. the spring washer needs to "point" out with the convex side. if not done correctly, your castle nut will back out. this can also occur if the splines in the hub are worn/stripped wooo! 1000 posts, and a couple may have even been correct

Hitachi Carb Q & A
Again thank you for (hopefully) stifling some of the redundancy around here. Ill be trying this out this weekend... my (california) 86 GL wagon idles fine but craps out under acceleration. fuel filters are gravy.... i know its the carb, which is dirty and foreign to me. if I dont get it figured out soon im going to attempt an spfi swap, Ive got everything to do it. That said, Id rather make Whitey run with what he brung so to speak. RV

cv axles can look fine and still be wobbly, especially if they are remanned axles. alignment is important at high speeds as well. oh ya, check your axle nuts and the washers under em. the one that looks flat isnt, the convex side goes out. torque axle nut as bleeding tight as you can..or about 145 ftlbs ps.....what kind of soob are we talking about here?

cvs, struts, balljoints......any loose or cracked bolts/bushings.

Old School me......
i will get a gen 1 fsm asap. currently i have htkysa and a chilton... i am familiar with ea series engines but its been a couple years since ive had an ohv model. as far as collecting more cars goes, i need to let a couple go first. My main goal for this thread is to find out what people have done to their gen1 roos. mine has been hacked somewhat but i have an extra harness and all kinds of other stuff. itll end up lifted im almost sure of it... but before then i need to absorb as much as i can from folks who have rocked these for decades. What have you done to your gen 1? i guess that should be this threads title

Old School me......
I just spent the best 10,000 pennies of my life last weekend. Ive got a 78 BRAT w some spares and an ea81 dropped in. this wont be my build thread, but rather a thread for those new to the historic soobs. im looking for general knowledge, anecdotal help, modifications experience etc..... basically if your buddy/son/ etc got one of these what could you tell them.? Ive done some searching for wiring diagrams and have found none but those with dead links or pay to play. Lets see the knowledge drop..............

Super beetle struts?
i recently aquired a set of said struts with coilovers installed and ea81 strut tops. they are modified to accept ea82 knuckles. umm... they are huge... i have a 4" lift in the garage with full on 4" xmember drop and it wont be able to soak those up. i have rears equally as big but have no idea what they came from. i got both of these from the same upstanding gentleman i bought my 78 BRAT from..
