Sounds like you need skidplates and a 7500lbs winch to fit in that bumper.

How can you beat a non-interference ej22 and a good automatic transmission for reliability? I've beat the snot out of my 95 automatic for over a year now. Without any problems. My car looks like rump roast, but I would drive it cross country in a heartbeat. Well worth the $480 I spent. I wish it got better MPG though...

Did you pull up the carpet?

Ground clearance is the biggest issue then traction. Lift a few inches and get a good set of tires and have fun. If you you want to go bigger I would just buy a real 4x4.:cool:

I saw a 95 legacy in the scrapyard with 320,000 miles and I thought that was a lot. It was in really great shape considering. It could have been worse. I went to look at a 96 chevy truck yesterday. It had 360,000 miles and the doors almost fell off when I opened them. Good luck with the new car!

Definitely not a $2100 car. If it runs well I would price it more around $1000.

The steel suppliers around here carry all kinds of plastics. I would give the local metal yards a call and ask them. A 12" X 6" X 1.25" chunk of delrin cost me $9.

So maybe the solenoid is bad? That's usually what goes bad on starters. By the way, are you from Lake Geneva, Wisconsin?

Nice! On mine I counterbored to fit an extra nut. Not mine, but a good example:

They make good tow points as well. If you're into off roading... The trailer hitch on my legacy might be more useful if the receiver wasn't rusted solid in the hitch.

Aluminum was 4 times as much money for the same size of plastic. I highly doubt I will run into problems with delrin strut spacers. The body lift on my Montero is 2" thick UHMW and I haven't had any problems.

LOL, I started cutting some out today. My friend helped me cut one out on a CNC router....way too much time and effort ended up with a fairly messed up spacer the way we mounted it to the table. The second spacer will get cut by hand with a jigsaw and a drill press. I am making 1.25" spacers for the rear of my Legacy SUT. I will use the best 5/16 bolts Home Depot carries-most likely grade 8. I'm going to lift the front with junkyard 1st gen Forester struts for a 2-3" lift. The plastic was either Delrin or UMHW. I can't remember what the guy said it was. A 12"X6"X1.25" chunk cost me $9. I personally wouldn't go more than 1.5" I would assume the camber would get a little hard to fix with a 3" block? I have a DXF file of the rear spacer if anyone is interested.

According to the planet isuzu thread it came in 2nd to last...but hey it finished!

Put the FWD fuse in and run her until she quits. I had to do that on mine because of the torque bind. I actually installed a switch on the dash if I ever need the AWD.
