steering wheel center piece
scoutem replied to scoutem's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
It's a 85 GL Wagon 4x4 2.8 liter -
Hello I am trying to get my center piece of my steering wheel back on. Problem is i can't get the clips to re-engage. Any tricks or ideas on how to get this back on? Thanks
-
So I have a 85 Sub GL wagonm I took the steering wheel off in order to replace the turn signal switch. So now for the life of me I can't get the center peice back on? It will look like it is clipped in but as soon as I cross RR tracks or some bumps off it comes? Any tricks to getting those clips to re-engage? Also is there newer models Suby's that I can take a wheel off of that will bolt right on? If I can't get this center peice to stay on I'm thinking of putting on a different style of wheel. Thanks for your knowledge.

Thanks for all your help and step by step instructions Gadberry (very helpful) I am/was hoping for a much simpler way. But you are correct it is a kinda important part of the car Taj I contacted you about your rims thanks. Has anyone seen any 6 lug adapted rims for sale on here? Sorry about the repost my computer was acting up/ not showing my post so I hit repost a few times

6 lug wheel on a 4 lug car? Safe?
scoutem replied to noob2soob22's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
So I also have been trying to nail down a set of Pug's. I have a set of 14 alloys on my car now. problem is 2 rims are kinda bent and now it is almost impossible to find any. So this 6 lug thing, is it just as simple as taking the hub off lining up two of the holes and then marking 2 others? Then of course just drilling and having tires balanced and mounted? I see several sets of 6 lug Toyota rims on C-List is this the way to go? Thanks for any help direction I plan on getting this done in time for some Holiday driving my front end shakes a little too much now:) -

Thanks again...the original post you felt to comment on about the "didn't make a brat in 99" was from BeachBM69 who doesn't have a Brat in his profile pic, also the in the picture it looks like what I thought is a back seat. I am getting ready to go hunt for some of those seats. So I was just trying to get HIM to clarify. I am new to this post stuff but FYI that is what I was trying to accomplish
-
Uh Thanks...I knew your post was from a Brat owner. The other guy just said 99 and he didn't look like he had a Brat.
-
What exactly are you saying? That seats from a 99 Escort fit the same? Or that those are seats out of an escort that fit into your 99?
-
Thanks...May give that a try if I can find a wreck STI or Legacy around here. those look sweet and thats one of the better looking Brats I have seen:)
-
Did you get these seats new from a store? Or pick them up used from someone? Looked online but haven't seen much.
-
How hard are these tabs to put in? Just a tack weld or?
-
Anyone out there had any luck in putting newer seats in a older 80's suby? I have a 85 wagon that runs great and i drive everywhere. But, the seats are really broken down. I wanted to put some legacy or ? seats in it but have been told it will take lots of modifications. Anyone had any luck?

I am looking for another set of PUGs, where are you located, how much any pics you can e-mail me? bdjake1@msn.com
