  1. Execllent - thanks for the quick replies!
  2. So we have a '91 Leggo wagon with outback struts and a 3" lift kit. The radiator hoses are spliced together with exhaust tubing just while we got it running, and I'd like to swap for one piece units for piece of mind and ease. I know I've seen recommendations (if not part numbers) on here before, but my searches are coming up empty. Any recommendations out there? Thanks in advance.
  3. Yeah - we spun the center bearing and have clearance at the driveshaft, so that's not the noise. I'll have to take a closer look this weekend to see what if anything is rubbing.
  4. Gotcha. And that will cause the grinding noise? Accordint o Justin it seems to be coming from the front suspension. I'm hoping the adjustment is easy then.
  5. Dogbone? Help me with that one - not familiar with the terminology. When we got the strus from PnP we picked up a decent set of rad hoses. I spliced them with a short piece of exhaust pipe. A little ghetto, but seems to work ok for now.
  6. That's what I was thinking - but I think that means that the a-arm brackets are on the wrong sides (the open end would have to be towards the back for the brace to fit into it). Right? Am I crazy?
  7. Thanks Scott - so does the a-arm bracket look like it's installed correctly? IE, the 'c' open towards the front of the car? Also - I know you mentioned that I need to flip a bracket underneath - something about the center dif maybe? The way I have it installed now the front driveshaft is rubbing a bit. Thanks again - I need to write it down next time!
  8. Hi there - so I'm helping install this kit and had jrxl post up. I do recall Scott telling me that the mystery bracket was a brace of some kind for the a-arm block, but I can't remember how it goes together (I don't have instructions) and I don't see any obvious places where it would bolt up. If anyone has a pic of how it goes together that would be especially helpful. Thanks...
  9. Dang - missed them by a day. Thanks for the herads up. Actually considering an SJR lift now. Gotta decide which way to go...
  10. Hi all - I'm looking at getting a SJR 4" lift for a '91 Legacy. I have a couple of questions about it. Any comments or suggestions from experience would be helpful. -Is everything included (any other parts like hardware I would need)? -Do I need any special tools? -How long would it take someone to install it if they had all the tools? -How difficult is it to lengthen the steering shaft? Thanks for the help...
  11. Thanks for all the ideas. I assume that the mesh bag is a pain to get to since you have to drop the tank to get to the pump?
  12. Hi all - just picked up a '91 Legacy wagon. When we made a hard right turn to go up a hill today testing the new tie rod ends, the motor stumbled and nearly cut out before catching again. It was a pretty hard turn, I admit. Seems to run fine any other time. My first thought was fuel starvation, but it has 1/4 tank of gas. Any ideas? Where should I look first?
  13. So forgive my ignorance again, but I didn't see it mentioned in the link. Will both Outback Impreza or Legacy struts work, or just Legacy? Tried PnP today, but no luck. The only OB there had damaged struts on the left side. I'll keep looking.
