Sweet82

I custom made the "arm rests" exactly the same size as an aluminum can .......Drink Holder! http://usmb.net/gallery/albuo21/MVC_174F As for the dog.... http://usmb.net/gallery/albuo21/PIC83 Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

Sorry to see your car go... http://usmb.net/gallery/albuo21/PIC63 Mine left on a trailer... I had the exact same problem with my 82. I could pull a Flintstone to stop! The top side was Sweet! No Worries! The Boys down under helped me to give it a new life as a RhinoBuggy. http://usmb.net/gallery/albuo21/MVC_166F Build one! Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

I would have gone with the battery cable theory Now my guess is solenoid or the ignition switch going funny Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

My theory is.....if you can still move then your not stuck! As I see it you could have backed up so you wouldn't be "stuck" Looks like a great area Wish it was by me Good luck Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

You have come to the right place, Welcome! Tell us about your Subies... Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

So are the Lugs suppose to be torqued to 72? I have always done mine to 85? Does anyone have the specs for the years and models? (01 Forester too) Thanks, Glenn

The Forester roof racks are tough!!! They are solid not hollow and low profile. I had a tree fall on my rack and it didn't even dent the rack...wish I could say the same for the car. In fact the rack saved the car from more damage. I don't think the metal I hauled was over #100s anyway...and I did pad the rack/roof so it wouldn't scratch anything!

Foot Rest? I was wondering the same thing? In my old Hatch it would have been the pedals or the firewall/fenderwell? I kinda considered those to be essentials? Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

Where do I get those clips and metal tabs that secure the ends of the flexable brake lines in place? The metal tabs left with the old body... They are just zip tied now..."Summer" would appreciate it. :-\ Thanks, Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

I went to the home store yesterday to pick up some 12' sections of steel roofing I had ordered. Trooper was in the shop and I had the Forester so I decided what the heck. You should have seen the forklift drivers face when I had him load the Forester roof rack with the steel sections The 12' sections actually fit well on the Forester. All the pickup truck drivers were staring at the specticle:D What a great SUV! Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

I sold my body or 3/4 of it to the recycle folks and it weighed #440. I think when you add the whole body in it would weigh in the #550+ zone. What are you doing to this poor subie? Glenn 82 SubaruHummer--use to be able to lift the tube frame w/axles before it was finished. 01 Forester L--#3170 on the scale.

I second the motion on the Cap, wires, rotor. I'd give it a good basic tune and see if that doesn't clear it up? I had the same thing many years ago and it turned out to be a wire? A basic tune finally took care of it for me. Good luck Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

I have no answers but..... This would be better if it was posted in the newer Subie section??? They may have something?

Got pics? That may help...

I had my 01 Forester done on this same recall. It's a silicone sealer for the cooling system to prevent those small leaks. There are some old threads on the subject... Good Luck Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

WCSS = West Coast Subaru Show - 7?

Don't forget the Differential abreviations........ Open Diff = A diff that has come too close to a big @$$ rock! Usually found up ugly trails! Closed Diff = A diff that doesn't drip gear oil! Locker = A diff that will not turn! no matter what you do:banghead: LSD = An imaginary thing that you'll never find at a junk yard

I'm still not convinced it's not the dimmer switch messing with you

Being broke didn't stop you from getting your first Subaru? Why on earth would it stop you from getting more My bet is by the time you 18 you'll have three and it will just get worse from there Good luck Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

If its your daily driver I wouldn't mess with it too much Clean it up and keep it up! (till you can afford to mess it up! ) My .02 Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

What kind of car are we talking about? On my 82 GL Hatch the dimmer knob would cause my dash to go off if I bumped it or moved it just a bit. Try messing with the dash dimmer knob and see if you have dead spots on the switch? (or if the dash dimmer knob is adjusted all the way off ) Just a thought.. Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

Just plane cool :cool:

He says it's underpowered until he hits the N2O. Wouldn't it be nice to go wherever you point your vehicle Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester
