Thanks 175eya. Another Subi owner was asking about this and I passed that info along. I received them today and they appear to be just what I need. Thanks again from Larry.

Thanks for that info, somick. I ordered two yesterday and I guess I will have to wait and see.

I am looking for two of these, can't find on eBay and am trying Rockauto next!

I have a 1984 Subaru GL Wagon with the drum brakes in the rear. I am looking for two adjuster kits but Subaru here says they are not available and that they had inquired with Japan as well. Anyone have any ideas which would be very much appreciated? Thanks.

One site that I found recommended spraying silicone spray into the tracks. A bit messy, I did and it offered a little relief but not like new.

Those old 185/70r13s are wearing in the front and I will soon be shopping to replace them.

Here is a posting you might check. There is one that compares a similiar process as used for adjusting Chevy hydraulic lifters that may work. I hope these are helpful. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/topic/155873-ea81-valve-adjustment-issues/

Thanks about the mounts. I sort of guessed them as well. About 60 mph the vibes start and then the occasional, sometimes steady, lighting begins.

Does slop in the pitching stopper have any relation to the 4WD light lighting with certain speeds while in FWD? After 60 the light lights. I hold down the Dual Range selector and the light stays out. I have an EA81 1984 GL Station Wagon 4 spd. Dual Range. The pitch stopper is a threaded rod type. UPDATE! I discovered that a "pitch stopper" adjustment stopped the 4WD lamp from coming on. The pitch of the drivetrain triggered the light switch. Problem solved. Had bad mounts; trans and motor!

Kinda sounds to me like it may not be engaging fully on the transfer case. Just a guess. I have had something similar happen with my 87 and 84. Drive straight down a non congested roadway and try shifting in motion like you would without a clutch. Those linkages seem to stiffen up sometimes.

Thanks again carfreak85.

Thanks carfreak85. I am referring to the side lamps in the front bumper. I am aware of the turn signals in the the front of the front bumper but the lamps on the sides of the front bumper are the ones in question and it doesn't seem to make much sense for extra markers so close to existing markers, does it? I wish it was easy just to find another operable Soobi to compare to but they are way too rare here.

Thank you ruparts. The corner lamps outside of the headlights seem to function solely as markers and so I have wondered if these may be turn signals for the respective side. I will crawl underneath and trace the wiring one day and repost.

Hi, I recently bought a 1984 Subaru GL Station wagon; what are the front bumper side lights? As far as I have seen, they are inoperable and my guess is that they may be signals because the running/park lamps are already visible.
