  1. It sounds like the splines in the hub have gone bad. Pull off the hub and take a look, if they spines come to a sharp point then they are bad. From what I remember there should be about .040" to .060" of flat across the the top of the splines.
  2. oops... Mods please move this thread to Off Topic
  3. Am I getting screwed over or am I blowing out of proportion the new ORG rule stating that 4wd vehicles can no-longer compete in production. I can't run my wagon in the Lt.Truck/SUV class and now I can't compete in the production class where I was somewhat competive. erg:banghead: http://p066.ezboard.com/foregonregionsccafrm17.showMessage?topicID=21.topic
  4. It's on the passenger side under the dash but just above the shelf
  5. The correct rear diff for a d/r 4speed is a 3.9 and the correct rear diff for a EA81 4wd Auto is a 3.7; you may have a misslabled rear diff if you're not binding with the current setup.
  6. There is a coolant hose that runs under the turbo, you'll either need to pull the turbo to get at it from the engine compartment. The other option is to drop the downpipe and go in from under the car.
  7. Of the splines in the hub will probably be chewed-up too.
  8. You don't need to remove the parking brake cable to change the pads.
  9. This would depend on what richie means by new toy. If it's new as in it's finally together and ready to play with then I say it the SVX with the 5-speed swap that he's been working on. If it's something he just bought well my guess is.... an 85-86 RX Sedan
  10. I had loosened up the clutch cable until it had about 1/4 inch of play at the release fork in both directions so I doubt that completely disconnecting it will help.
  11. Hey, everyone here is giving you the information from US market repair manuals including the factory manuals from subaru. Oh if you have an EA82 then it's a 1800cc engine and it also has the same 1.0-1.1mm plug gap as I mentioned earlier.
  12. Are you cranking the engine when you're testing?
  13. It's a 1600cc as in the EA71 right? If it is the gap should be 1.0-1.1mm
  14. I've been told that Legacy skidplates were a dealer installed option, so you may want to check there.
  15. A crack in the transmission cas i quite rare, unless it's be caused by an accident.
  16. If I remember right that's a part of the high altitude compensation system. The part itself is basicaly a Absolute pressure sensor. It probably says boost on it because one of the other Japanese auto makers originaly designed it to be use as a boost sensor.
  17. there are a couple of small bypass hoses on top of the engine, check them for leaks
  18. He's got a Carter Webber not a Hatichi, Mike just go to a U-pullit and get the fitting.
  19. I can't decide what direction to go with my 84 GL. Keep it relitive stock for rallycross or lift it?
  20. looks like I'll be showing mike how to put the axle back in, in a day or two. hmm should I be nice and let him use my axle puller?
  21. You really need a 85 - 86 turbo distributor. The other 2 wires you refer to hook up to the knock control system.
