adhesive for trim
I've tried the double sided foam tape :-\ They don't last long. I tried the rubber double sided tape Works but hard to find. Depending on the trim, I've used RTV Black Works well on trim that can be held in place for the long drying time. (duct tape holds it steady for a while...) Good luck, Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

highest mileage update
I saw one in the Junk Yard in Moab last weekend :-\ The mileage on the car was 299990.6 This poor 1600 was 9.4 miles from 300000 when it got hit. I felt kinda bad for the poor fella.

tested my new rims on the wagon
I generally like Subaru's that become taller but, I think you've done a nice job with that one. Rims are keepers! Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

Sweet82 replied to CAP LOCK'D's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXThat bar is cool. Why do you have to remove the grill, when your using it? No hijack intended.- Oh no!!! I'm going to be coming....
Welcome to the Dark Side... Remember...Old Subies never die, They Just get taller! Keep us posted on your progress! Good Luck, Glenn- Our Offroad Video Trailer
The video is great! I thought that terrain looked familiar. We call that, the West Desert. Lookin Good! Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester- windshield replacement
Sweet82 replied to s'ko's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXI had my Forester done, it didn't take 20 minutes... However, I'd never try anything like that on my own. If you break it you loose your $75!!! There is also the old windshield removal to deal with... If you brake it...it could be messy? I'd opt for $100 worth of insurance and have it installed. Good Luck, Glenn, 82 SubaruHummer--Lexan windshield 01 Forester--replacement windshield- 01 Outback front speakers
Sweet82 replied to farva's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXMike, You can just unplug the tweeters in your window pillar. It's just a clip on the back side of the tweeter. I added the factory ones in (didn't come with the car) and I love the difference in the sound. The higher frequencies are more directional than the lower ones, so a tweeter in your window pillar should give you better sound. The new ones in the door will be pointing in a different direction? What's wrong with 2 sets of tweeter? Good Luck, Glenn 82 SubaruHummer--no stereo anymore... 01 Forester--Non-factory stereo, factory tweeters!- EA82 LSD rear diff conversion
Are the EA81 diffs and the EA82 diffs the same? or at least interchangeable? They look the same?- Hill-holder in the Brat?
If your 84 has it, You need to look and see if you can find a cable going from the clutch cable area under the hood to the brake booster area. The cable that actuates the Hill holder works off the clutch and controls a spring loaded valve on your brake system. You should be able to look under the hood and see if the cable has been removed or is just out of adjustment. I think you'll find it obnoxious for 4wding (you can't roll backwards with the clutch in). Good luck, Glenn 82 SubaruHummer--wouldn't have the HH clutch!!! 01 Forester--not an option.- hahahahaha*gasp*hahahaha!
I wanna see whats going on. Linkie, no workie! :-\- pictures of the "lifted imps!"
Impreza makes a nice little lifted ride! Are the AZ ones geared? as in D/R? Lookin Good, Glenn 82 SubaruHummer--lifted and geared! 01 Forester--needs lifting and gearing- exhaust header stud size
I can't as mine are just tiny rusted nubs.- Moab This weekend!
FYI, I'm back in Moab this weekend... Going to do some of the rougher trails. Behind the Rocks, then down Prichett. Poisen Spider, to Golden Spike then down Gold Bar. Moab Rim, in and out. :cool: Killer Kane, to the mine, then through the mountain to the other side I'm looking to do some of the Ugly Stuff this trip. No I'm not taking the Buggy. Summer is once again staying home. "Stay Summer Stay!" "Sit!" This time I'm going to take the Trials Bike, as it will make short work of the 4+ crap! I'm hoping to get a better feel for the worst Moab has to offer. By the end of this trip I should be real close to doing all the 4+ trails! I have been working on this for years If anyone is going to be in Moab this week/weekend and wants to hook up, let me know. Glenn 1974 Honda TL--I'm gonna be sore :-\- Yahooooo! I got my new Subaru :)
Sweet82 replied to Urban Coyote's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXHappy New Subaru To You!!! and Ouch! (thats gonna leave a mark)- Lift gate gas struts
They can be found, they are just expensive. I was quoted $30/ for some on another vehicle... No thanks! I have a snow scraper that works fine for much le$$.- Harbor Freight winch
The only thing I have done is the winch myself up my front lawn! My winch says it has no brake but it does not slip back under load? I have noticed the new ones are saying they have a brake? (automatic load holding) It has been my experience that they DO have brakes even though mine said it didn't. With a snatch block your doubling your load so you should be ok with a Sub? It's not the best winch, the #3000 one should be better but it was twice as much money. I think for as much as I'll ever use it the #2000 will be just fine. I admit it I got it because I thought it would be cool not because I thought I'd need it. Shhhhhhh! Don't tell anyone- Hidden/low-profile Trailer Hitches
Sweet82 replied to stormshdw9's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXI'd say most of the hitches for Subarus are hard to see. All the ones I've seen are just a small receiver hiding a fraction of an inch below the bumper? I have a Draw-Tite and am happy with it. It has the small size receiver and you don't really notice it. Good Luck Glenn 82 SubaruHummer--Custom Hitch 01 Forester--DrawTite Hitch- heater fan not working
I'd do a quick test and make sure your motor is good If you just jump power to the fan you'll know right away if it's the motor or the resistors/switch. Good Luck, Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester - Any Aftermarket Parts 4 The Forester?
