    ?best muffler sound?

    Generally any of the "performance" (fart can) mufflers off of ebay etc. will give you some nice throaty Subaru growl. If you're wanting the signature sound, you don't have to pay much. Performance overall seems to lag more with the big expensive exhausts on these cars. Open muffler will give you plenty of sound.

     

    You'll love it for at least 3 hours until the headache sets in and you can't use your CD player anymore.

    CD player always goes for some reason. Then people look because of the sound and realize you are in fact not a teenaged boy.

    Im running the CHEAP chinese sealed bearings + new seals on my GL.

     

    No signs of problems 5,000 miles later....  Though I dont really care.   They cost me less than $5 each  :lol:

    Hey Idasho, what are the part numbers for the bearings and seals you used? I have an 88 gl 4wd that needs the front done. Also are there inner and outer for this vehicle?

    Clutch issue

    I drive a 1988 subaru gl 4wd 4spd dual range, with 54,000 miles on it. I just put a new clutch disk in it. The reason i put a new disk in was because the car wouldn't go at all when the car was in gear. With the new clutch, It will start in neutral, but when i try to put in all gears it wont go and reverse grinds. I can put the car in gear and then start it and it goes but then wont come out of gear and stalls. Whats the problem? Thanks for the help in advance!:grin:
