So after some phone calls to Subaru USA, a very helpful guy there dusted off the shelves and sent me pictures of the transmission diagrams and part lists. From that I was able to source the last Brat transmission rebuild kit in the country!

Thanks for getting back to me fellas. So an update on the Brat gearbox. After reading the replies decided to take it to a mechanic to go through it for me. He gave it a clean bill Of health except for the seals which I already knew. The trouble is my mechanic says he cannot find the seals with his vendors and Subaru told him they are discontinued. I have two questions: anyone know the part numbers for all the needed seals and anywhere that might stock them. Don’t mind ordering from overseas. Cheers

Well that makes sense! Lol thanks Bennie! All I’m looking to do really is replace the input shaft seal. And possibly replacing bearings as needed. I’ll keep tinkering, thanks!

Hello all, new poster long time lurker Im rebuilding the manual transmission on my 84 Brat using the excellent steps I found on this forum by another member my issue is I am unable to separate the transfer case from the transmission. The post mentions a 10mm bolt after removing the inspection cover (see photo) but I do not see a bolt anywhere. I can separate the parts by half an inch or so but then stop on what seems to be the selector arm. Any suggestions?
