Added some colour to the previous drawing : I'm working towards to making a Scale Paper Model, so every one can have one - you just need to print it out & assemble it ... Give me a few days to work it out though ... :cool: Cheers, Bantum ...

Nice one ... One thing missing - red pin stripe ...

Don't know of any in NZ - but Phil from AUSubaru in QLD might ship you some of his 'brumby wheels' ... You can reach him on FB as well : https://www.facebook.com/phil.nelis Cheers, Bantum ...

There's this also : ( Australian Based ) https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=oa.10152505148517532&type=1 Cheers, Bantum ...

Well here's another thread worth checking : http://www.ausubaru.com/forum/showthread.php?t=24388 Check out Gotti for some different wheels ... Cheers, Bantum ...

Don't know if this helps : http://www.ausubaru.com/forum/downloads.php?do=file&id=135 Is a PDF of an Aussie version ( may have to be a member to see it ) so may not be suitable, but are wired up similar. I would check all lights for blown bulbs as a first step via process of elimination to find what's causing the short. Cheers, Bantum ...

Came across this while surfing the other day : More info on it here : http://vintage-ads.net/asian.htm Cheers, Bantum ...

If you want something louder, try this : 'J' Extractors from Willy : http://www.ausubaru.com/forum/showthread.php?t=25070 A much cheaper option & you wont lose power like the dual side setup ... Cheers, Bantum ...

Um, I don't know if he can claim to be the sole designer, as it was more likely a collaborative effort between Subaru USA & Japan ... ( Australia also had a hand in it too, with the Brumby ) + You'll find it difficult to get any info on early Japanese Designers, so will post more when I find it. Cheers, Bantum ...

Also found this : http://vimeo.com/69031389 Parts of it seems a bit weird, but hey it’s got a BRAT in it … Add : + this was Walt Biggers car ... Cheers, Bantum ...

Here he is between two of his projects at Ontario Speedway 1980 : Brumby & Alex on left, Ron Jones & the X-100 on right + Walt Biggers is striding over ... Found here : http://www.rongineer.com/x100.html Cheers, Bantum ...

Found : Cheers, Bantum ...

Harvey Lamm, was then-president, Subaru of America, more here: http://autoweek.com/article/car-life/week-1977-subaru-introduce-all-terrain-vehicle Can't recall the designer/s though - Will post a name when I find it ... Cheers, Bantum ...

Hi all, Bit of an update for you : Enjoy ... Cheers, Bantum ...

Don't know if I was seeing the same thing, but I didn't see any Subi's ... Black car that was 'crushed' is a XF Mk II Ford Panel Van ( a Ute that's been converted ) from around the 1990's ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panel_van_(Australia) Cheers, Bantum ...

Not aware of any 'how to' fix thread on here - but they shouldn't be that hard to pull apart & fix + there’s few things you can do to help : Firstly - What model is your car ? - As not all Subaru's came with intermittent wipers ... Secondly - Re-soldering the board should help as they do tend to 'dry out' over time, just check with a multi meter for correct ratings etc. + check for burnt out components as well ... Thirdly - You can clean-up & regrease the wiper mechanism / motor to make sure its running smoothly ... Cheers, Bantum ...

Nice work there - ( I will have to do the same job you have done to my '74 wagon at some stage ) I'll be looking forward to see the end result ... P.S. - You might be able to recover some of your photos by searching for 'cache' files on the web ... Cheers, Bantum ...
-
Yep - its just a matter of 'process of elimination' & you will eventually find the culprit ... If you trace / find all items linked to the lights like : wiring, plugs, switches & fuses and test them all for continuity etc. you should end up finding the sucker ... ! P.S. - Have you checked that the actual lights work by themselves ... ? ie: disconnect and run via a test lead to battery ... Cheers, Bantum ...
-
Sorry I forgot to mention the manual is a large file, so if you are on dial up - it will take a while to down load ... P.S. - I've sent you a PM re wiring diagram Leorob ... Add : In the mean time try this one ( in two parts ) as taken from the Clymer A186 manual : You'll note there are No - repeat None, Nudda, Nill, Zero, Zilch, Zip, F'K all - Nope still no headlight relays for this model ... As to the Fusible links, if you follow their paths they do eventually find their way to lights - it just goes through a few other things like switches, regulators & the like first ... Cheers, Bantum ...
-
No worries - glad I could help ... P.S. - We don't have the equivalent of 'Marines' in Oz - they would have been either 'Australian Special Forces', SASR or the better known 'Commando' regiment ... Cheers, Bantum ...
-
I think you'll find those 'nut' items shown previously are the Turn signal & Flasher units ... As to the main headlight relay - I'm pretty sure most of the earlier EA71/81 models never had them, they just ran off the head light switch - see wiring diagram ... ( Will post here when I find it ) Add : http://www.ftp.kritical-it.com/Subaru%20Brumby,%20Leone,%20L-series%20Workshop%20Manual.pdf Edit : Warning...! large file ... ! Take a gander at the wiring for your model & you'll see what I mean ... Hence the need to 'add' a relay to sort overheating issues with the switch ... Add : here is example of adding a relay for spotties : More info can be found here : http://www.ausubaru.com/forum/showthread.php?t=24558&highlight=headlight+wiring+diagram Same deal will apply to main headlights ... Cheers, Bantum ...

Bit of a bump, but these might be of interest : Brumby Wheel : 14 x 6", 950kg load rating, 93.1mm centre bore, 5mm thick centre, +55 offset ... More details to be found here : http://www.ausubaru.com/forum/showthread.php?t=24388&page=4 And here : http://www.ausubaru.com/forum/showthread.php?t=24469 Cheers, Bantum ... Edit : stupid FB keeps loosing the Link ...

Why not do both ... Alloys for show & on road + Jackmans for going off road = win ! Cheers, Bantum ...
-
There are other higher rated connectors out there too ! I'd rewire the High Beam to a new circuit from a dedicated relay - as it stops the heat building up / reduces current draw in the cabin. P.S. - If your after the larger Connector, you could try the local wreckers to see if the have something similar. Cheers, Bantum ...
