  1. now it is finally my own it has some stuff in the rear window it is a decepticon!!!!!!! and of course the goon squad (ratsun.net thing)
  2. i would use a come along and pull it out as much as possible before doing anything i would get it as straight as i could then run some c chanel over it (1/4 inch thickness maybe) weld c chanel in place forming a nice renforcment then redrill any holes you might need then do the same to the other side so its just as strong
  3. are you using a buffer or jut a rag? i just used a rag and i had no problems with it going threw the paint
  4. i just did head gaskets on mine and its comming out the over flow to open the rad cap while its hot is it foamy? if so then yes your still getting compression in the system if not its just normal overflow my datsun did the same thing installed a overflow bottle never had another problem same is gonna hapen to my wagon these things really need that overflow bottle edit judging by that hood im willing to bet that some rubbing compound and elbow grease will bring that paint back
  5. you wouldnt happen to have a left rear 4wd mud flap for a first gen wagon would you?
  6. ************ im off work tomorrow man we can hit some trails then keep in mind though im not lifted lol this thing sounds like dog ************ man i have almost no exhaust left under it thats next on the list ill swing by tomorrow and check out the rx
  7. now im guessing the rear torsions can be cranked up as well as down correct? if so i might have found the little bit of lift im looking for
  8. man that looks familiar great looking wagon man looks like you did the same stuff i did to mine when i got it
  9. ive been debating redrilling the hubs as well i have some american racing 14 inchers that are back up wheels for my datsun and they would look bad rump roast on my wagon
  10. your probibly gonna dream unless you do some heavy mods
  11. had some fun today before work went out in the blm land behind my house and ran it like i was in a baja race then climbed some tree stumps this thing keeps impressing me with what it can do off road but i think stump climbing is about its limit with stock suspention but it is one hell of a little baja car as it sits im thinking that at least a mild lift will be in this things future
  12. you just have to look around dude i got one for 80 bucks for my datsun you just have to look
  13. its a torsion bar set up should work like an old bug
  14. i might be not sure i just know im in lapine lol yeah dad is fun to work with sometimes hes an ********************* but most of the time its fun to work with him this isnt the first project he and i have worked on together so your in bend? you should come to la pine and show me some cool places to take this thing
  15. took the subi on a little adventure down the fire roads then the quad trails was rather surprized at how well it managed
  16. my dad had his 33's in the garage and i had the car up on stands so i got a little insperation this is with the car on jack stands set at the highest setting dad thought it would be funny to act like he was ran over anyway new axle new ball joint and tie rod shes as good as new
  17. update waiting on a new tierod took the right front corner apart needs an axle (knew this ) grabbed the extra one that came with the car its the wrong one also discovered that the bal joint is shot all of these things combined are what is giving me the vibration from hell so now i get to order an axle and a ball joint unless someone on here has these things for cheaper on here and is willing to part with them
  18. dual owndrafts like a bug huh gives me ideas
  19. looking for the 2 part right taillight for a 78 wagon and a stock steering wheel in crappy shape
