Uneven ride height
ShawnW replied to charm's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXIts possible its just the strut but you need to inspect it to be sure. It could be a crack in a spring or something too. Obvious during dis assembly.

Alignment after rear wheel bearing change?
ShawnW replied to Wxman's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXIt doesnt matter if they removed the knuckle even. As long as they don't remove the lateral links that connect to the rear crossmember it won't change anything. Short answer: No alignment needed.

1995 lagacy briton Trans.
ShawnW replied to noremac's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXOil won't fix it or even touch the problem if its a manual transmission. Auto's you can try "Trans X" which is sold at parts stores but I doubt this will solve anything its about 20% success rate in my experiences. Removing the driveshafts won't work on many levels. The coupler is in the back of the transmission and can be changed out in the car without removing the whole transmission. Its about $700 US in parts last I checked. I can order and ship the parts to you if you can't get them locally.

2000 forester...does it have 3pt belts in rear center?
ShawnW replied to hankosolder2's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXCant find the info on it either. Going to need to find an actual vehicle or seller of one to verify this I think. My gut says 2 3 point and 1 lap rear. I dont think the center 3 point starts till around 2005.

Swapping out twin piston calipers on a 97 OBW
ShawnW replied to ericcroll's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXUsually those come on cars with smaller rotors and caliper brackets. I would bet you run into something not clearing but by all means try it.

cam bearing cap torque? this cant be right!
ShawnW replied to the3rsss's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXThe 96 has different torque for the end caps than the 97-99 one does so lets not confuse the matter there. The end caps are a lower torque than the center ones without the thrust control surface/groove. The haynes will get you in trouble its pretty awful about having the torque specs correct as it doesnt know the differences in years many of the times.

Bought Bratman18's Brat.
Welcome. You have some reading to do in the OffRoad and Old Gen forums. Essentially there isn't a whole lot you can do on the camber without converting to different hubs or a major surgery basically.

Torque Convertor Moved a lttle forward question??
ShawnW replied to Petersubaru's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXTheres a shaft the length of the main trans case that slides into the inside of the torque converter. If that stays with the converter pull the converter out far enough (6-8") and the larger 2" piece that clips to the converter will be cleared and you can grab the smaller shaft and hold it from coming out. If this shaft comes out its no big deal, just push it back into the transmission, and pull the converter away with its piece thats clipped to it. I can upload a photo to clarify if needed. PM me.

ShawnW replied to Petersubaru's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXJust keep an eye on it when you first start it up and first put it in gear a few times. If its going to leak its probably going to pour out. For the piece of mind just replace the seal its cheap insurance.

Horn and Wiper Pump Electrical Issue
ShawnW replied to brendanr279's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXIf you put power to the wiper pump and it sprays, and if you check for volts and ground at the plug to the pump and that is bad start tracing back. I too bet its the clock spring but you need to find a wiring diagram for the year of car and verify more before dropping the money on it.

ShawnW replied to AlanS's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXThe dealer doesn't try to sell the idlers because they are so expensive. $90 for one bearing is very common pricing with the markup.

Towing a BRAT with 2 lugs per hub?
Locking thread. You know its not safe. Don't risk the lives of other people or your own with this idea. Fix it before towing it or have it towed by a tow truck.
