so the brat is up on jack stands yet again in the process of bracing the rear suspension (sorry no pics yet). and ive got a good set of axles headed my way! also ive started swapping rotors calipers and shoes between the wagon and brat. decided i wanted to paint the valve covers because it was snowing and cold and i wanted to work inside, and i have to say im really glad i did because whoever took the valve covers off last didnt put any gaskets back on, and didnt even tighten them down all the way! the bolts were finger tight. i guess that explains why everything is COVERED in oil. anyway i took some paint stripper and sprayed it on the valve covers, let it sit for 15 minutes or so, and washed it off with hot water. 2 or three repetitions of that and they were clean as can be! then i took sandpaper and got the little rust spots and roughed it all up, primed them (2 coats), and painted them gold. yes, i know, gold. but i like it

these old 4 speeds always have a ton of slack in them, its mainly from the bushing where the bolt holds the shifter to the fork thingy. sorry i dont know the correct names haha. only one of the half shafts will turn, if you held onto the spinning tire, the other side would spin, thats how differentials work. here's your rotor! http://www.ebay.com/itm/Subaru-Brat-Front-Disc-Brake-Rotor-40549004-OPparts-/111192083924?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Make%3ASubaru%7CModel%3ABrat&hash=item19e3908dd4&vxp=mtr

mazda rx7 rims wont bolt straight on, you will have to take your hubs off and have them redrilled for the correct lug pattern... just making sure you know

one stock set of rims from a late 70 wagon- $75 one set of somewhat rusty jackmans- $150 one set of good condition chrome rims off a loyale- $200 good set of headrests from a first gen brat- SOLD push bar for a first gen brat or wagon, rusty and slightly pitted but not bent- $50 i would really prefer not to have to ship rims, but if you figure out how i'm not dead set against it.
