  1. picked up 87 2WD Justy it has 12" wheels wondering if theres 13" rims avalible for this car?
  2. well Ive bent the radius rod twice on one car and once on another had this idea of modifying the stock rod , basically free up the plate that pushes against the rubber donut , add a heavy spring onto the rod and welding up another plate at the other end of the spring, what this would do is absorb the shock of hitting into a obsticle , the tire would come back into contact with the inner fender well which threw the tire would adsorb more shock, I want to fab 2 up and put them on my present rig
  3. I have found 27" tires max for a EA82 with stock gearing , its still to high geared, if you want " big ole meets" go with the transfercase min lift 8", 10" is not unreasonable , with bigger tires and lower gears the axles and stub shafts will be under greater stress/failure myself Im building up a EA82 in the shop , it has a transfercase for lower gears will end up with 8 " or 9 " lift, will run 27"- 30" tires weight and lack of low gearing seem to be the biggest drawback with the stock setup now if you never want to crawl up steep hills and mainly stay on the flats stock gears and big tires are ok SJR
  4. yes see link http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showpost.php?p=514183&postcount=46 :banana:

  10. you could come by my place tonight , we have trails in the woods, the gravel pit out northfork is fun too SJR
  11. since no one else had commited to go , we could leave Bellingham @ 8:30 , skip the Kart track meeting spot , take 538 E College way , at Riverside Dr swing threw the parking lot around 9:15 to the right to pick up any interested then hit hwy 9 go south threw Big lake and hit Walker Valley road, and get there Earlier . that would work, anyone object? if not we will do that, its a faster route
  12. leaving Bellingham at 9 Leaving Kart Track in mt vernon at 10 its right on the freeway, there should be a few open seats ,when going gets tuff all seats are open:lol:
  13. 4 days to go yee hee:banana: where do you want to meet up?,the Rock pit would be a good spot , we should roll in ther just after 10:00, any 14 wheel covers? watched the tape last night didnt recognise a thing relooked at the map , your right we will hit that first, Rollie you can ride with me Mar is staying home this time out , your the trip recorder,

  15. Buitiful:eek: :cool: a loose wire will work fine is your car a 3.7 or 3.9 ?
  16. Ivee thought of a hi mileage car for years, myself I would start with a light diesel say a lawn tractor engine or a motorbike motor, light tall narrow tires and rims ,even thought of using a import pickup cab for a base to start with , since everything is layed out for you and its some what of a safer box then a fiberglass shell , couple keys is keep the weight down and rolling/rotating mass (wheels/tires) down, keep us posted on the progress SJR:brow:
