I really like that but I'm going to make this my daily drive which includes picking up my grandson some days so I have to have a back seat. You did a nice job it looks great.

Thank you for the information and the great write up. Before going back to school to become a teacher I was a GM, BMW and Mazda tech but all I know about Subaru is how to spell it so I really appreciate your write up info thanks again. Jeff

I just picked up my $400 92 Loyale 4wd. The plan is to have my auto class replace the head gaskets, water pump, timing belt with pulleys, radiator and hoses. My advance fabrication class want to build a lift and put 16" rims on it. My drafting class wants to design a roof rack to hold two bikes and two kayaks (I don't know if that's possible) so my welding class can build it. Other ideas given from here are sliders, skid plates and let the student brain storm all great ideas. I will keep you all posted it will take time because we just started school and safety is first. I tried to post a photo but the file was to big so I needed to work on that. Jeff

Going to pick up the car this weekend what forum should I put the build in? Jeff

The goal is to have them learn something without knowing it's a lesson. These students will go crazy with ideas so possible some not. Thanks for the water pump gasket and oil pump knowledge. We'll put a complete timing belt set in all new bearings. Great welding ideas and a 4" lift it will be. Thanks for the input. Jeff

I am a high school welding, fab and auto teacher. I just bought a 92 Loyale 5sp AWD sedan for my classes to learn about horizontal engines. Here is the plan, pull the heads and hope for just head gaskets, if so new gaskets, water pump, t belt, t-stat, hoses and rad. Then if all goes good my fab class will build a 2" lift and drill the hubs to 6 bolt. What else should we do and what am I missing? I have Chevy van 16" wheels what size tire? I am new to Subaru I builded full size 4x4s and muscle cars so any help will be great. Jeff
