Legacy777

They probably will, but couldn't tell you for sure.

That was a pretty good read.....and very true in my opinion.

You're welcome.

I don't know of any subaru end links that are longer. You're probably better off just looking for some generic end links that might work. There's a lot of stuff you could probably find in some of the four wheel drive magazines.

I'd suggest checking out the Body & Chassis forum on legacy central BBS http://www.bbs.legacycentral.org There's a current rust repair thread in there. Plus I'm sure there are others that may be able to give you specifics on the trim. I am pretty sure it can be removed.

What vehicle is this for? This document has some good info http://candlepowerinc.com/pdfs/H4_9003.pdf Just saw you're in Canada. You can upgrade to the H4's without any issues.

Couple things to note. When you remove the top bolt that holds the strut to the knuckle, mark it's orientation. It is a camber bolt, so you want to try and get it back in the ball park when you reinstall the new strut. As for orientation of the strut, it'll be obvious. However you want to mark/note the orientation of the upper strut hat (just below the mount). I believe the hats have an arrow that points outward to help with the orientation, but in the event it doesn't or has been corroded over, you should make note of how that top hat sits. An impact gun helps with the removal & installation of that top nut onto the strut shaft.

That's the thing....I don't like CVT's! I've driven a Nissan with it, and is feels like it's slipping, and not really accelerating that much. I think if you drive like a grandma (no offense meant to hell-raising grandmothers out there ) the CVT could prove to be ok. However if you tend to drive a little like me the more frequent & harder acceleration will probably cause WORSE gas mileage. Just my thoughts.

Sorry, should have clarified. All 90-91 non turbo (incl. AT & MT) have 4.111 final drive ratio All 91-94 turbo (incl. AT & MT) have 3.90 final drive ratio All 92-94 non turbo AT's have 3.90 final drive ratio All 92-94 non turbo MT's have 4.111 final drive ratio

Did it come out of an original 92 Legacy? The 92-94 Legacies had a 3.9 final drive ratio from the factory. The 90-91's had the 4.11.

Are they actual Subaru rails? Probably your best bet would be to try contacting a lock smith to see if there's anything they can do.

They sound like they've got enough pad left on them. Other than that, I'd just make sure everything is adjusted properly, and maybe apply a little grease to the pivot points where movement takes place.

Welcome. What exactly are you referring to as vcd? viscous coupling differential? The coupling can be replaced separately from the differential. As for interchanagability between model years, I don't know specific years, but I think the 96 MY would probably work as well, and maybe the 90-94 legacies.

I just moved all the specific model threads recently posted. I do try to keep an eye on things in this forum.

For the compression test, just pull the plugs, disconnect the connector going to the coil pack, and open the throttle all the way while cranking. The cv axles from the Legacy should be interchangable.

Moved to meet & greet to get more exposure.

Moving to new gen forum.

I'd expect in the low to mid 20's, possible upper-mid 20's depending on how he drives. I'm pretty sure the head gasket issue has been resolved by then, but will allow others to comment that may have more experience with those cars.

This is for the 1997 cruise add on, but may help http://main.experiencetherave.com/subaru_manual_scans/FSM_Scans/1997_Impreza_Cruise_add-on.pdf

Do you have any issues with the guage while driving, or only after startup? Does it happen at cold starts only?

Not sure. Anybody else?

You may have air trapped in the system. With the engine cooled off, open the radiator cap and check the coolant level. Add coolant if need, leave the cap off, and start the car. Let it run and warm up with the cap off. Put the cap back on and see how things run. You may have other issues if that doesn't help.

I hate CVT's!

There might be a correlation, but it'd be hard to tell unless you could see specifically where the oil leak was coming from. By the time it's under the car and everything is slimey, it'd be hard to say.

I don't think it's rated to carry combustibles. However I will most likely be putting aerosols in it. I thought about doing that, but there are predefined spots for the shelves, and where I would for one to go, there's no slot for it to go....I'll probably look for a shelve of some kind with legs I can stick in there
