LSD Forester rear diff effectiveness Offroad
Been thinking about swapping in a factory 4.11 LSD. Differential into my 1998 Forester .How well do the factory Subaru LSD diffs work? Worth it money wise if spending under $400?

What would be the ultimate off road Subaru?
Basics are power and traction then wheel travel so for me something with a turbo,dual range and lsd diffs would be a good start

EA82 Distributor timing
"The flywheel has two groups of markings. 1). Three lines for Distributor/Timing belt serve markings 2). Larger group of lines/numbers for setting the timing with a timing light." Well dang ! I set my cam gears /timing belt with the lined/numbers ........haven't been able to start it yet

Knocking from right front end. Tranny, CV, ?
Firemanjim replied to SUBARU3's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXI'm having a similar issue , mine started out as a faint click, thought it may have been cvs going , put new axles in and now it sounds like I have rocks tumbling in the tranny on acceleration,no noise coasting or reverse. I don't think the new axle shafts are the problem,I have axle stub shaft play on drivers side and the passenger side is nice and tight.

Ea82 overheated / head gasket question
Was told it ran hot , happened about 6months ago and don't have a ton of history on it ,oil wasn't milky and looks great inside,turns smooth and no scaring of the cylinder walls,sometimes you'll see a "super" clean piston top from the water basically steam cleaning the top of the piston,I didn't see any of that and really could not pinpoint where the head gaskets seemed to fail. Gonna have the heads looked at and reseal it.

Ea82 overheated / head gasket question
I just picked up a 1991 Loyale ,was told the motor was rebuilt 2 years ago.Guy was driving it and it simply overheated,he pulled over and towed it to a local Subaru performance shop here in Florida.I picked it up and about to tear into it.How likely is it that it just needs a simple regasket/reveal and I'm back on the road,oil is brown not milky.Should I just snatch it and pop it apart? Get heads checked ?
