I love how the automatic is backwards, because we all know Automatic is wrong! :-p

For pistons that are hard to turn a channel lock around the outside does work but you have to be careful not to grab the rubber seal and rip it, and if you get deep marks in the piston that could rip the rubber seal. I usually use a channel lock to get it started then a needle nose to finish the job.

Painted some stuff. I really need new rear rotors and pads!

Is this the sticker that's on all LSD diffs? If so I just became very depressed because that wagon had the 3.70 up in the top left corner. It was a very dirty sticker and only the very top left corner was clean to where I could see it had 3.70 on it, maybe somebody else beat me there and was trying to see if it was LSD too?

O_o Your oil filler is on the wrong end. . .

I found an 87.5 GL-10 FT4WD turbo 4EAT wagon with 3.70 gears today with no lever or button for the diff, would this possibly have it? I wasn't able to get under it far enough to find out because the tires are all flat, it's sunk part way into the ground, and it's been lowered so there was just barley enough room to see the corner of the tag to see the ratio. It's at a yard and they want $150 for it, is that too much? Or an ok price for it? I am willing to pay it, just wondering if it's a rip off.

I took mine apart to get to the timing cover o-rings that were dumping oil out at a rate of about a quart per 100 miles. Ordered parts on Friday, they'll be in tomorrow, hopefully be all sealed up and back together by Wednesday!

Well my XT6 has full time 4wd with the locking center diff, and it's a daily driver that's going to see a lot of snow in the winter and mud/dirt offroad, and I live in the country so lots of gravel. I also kind of wanted it for drifting since right now it just spins the inside wheels and won't go sideways.

Just found another thread, should have kept doing my research before posting! :-p I guess what I'm looking for is a clutch type that will fit into my XT, I've seen a lot of people say that their Brat's had them, did they come with them or were they installed? What all came with LSD rear ends? I'm sure if I looked hard enough I could find what all came with them, I'm still searching away!

I know that the RX came with a 3.70 LSD rear end, and I was ecstatic to find this out after knowing where one was at a junk yard, and knowing that it still had the rear end in it made me all giddy! Then I got there, and the rear end was missing, and I got super depressed and started kicking myself for not taking it earlier! I was just wondering what else had an LSD rear end that can be swapped into my XT. I saw this thread and found out that some Legacys have an LSD rear end, but it was a different type that may not be a viable option from a junk yard. I was mostly wondering, without tearing it all apart, how to tell if it's an LSD rear end or not? I would most likely be tearing it down anyways and buying just the guts as it's MUCH cheaper, but I would like to know before taking it all apart what has it.

Nice headlights! My Escort wagon. Only ZX2 front end swapped wagon! Glad I'm not the only one!

I'm new, flame if you want I just wanted to share! Here's my buddie's '91 Loyale wagon. I have to get new pics, it's got roof lights now. Front bumper is a stock bumper from a '11 Wrangler welded to the stock reinforcement with the plastic center piece cut and installed for the fog lights. Oh and this car has 300k miles. And here's the '89 XT6 I picked up last week. When I got it. After painting the wheels, you can see my friend's wagon outside the door with the roof lights. And how it looks now.
