What's the difference between the XT6 steering knuckles and the early Legacy steering knuckles? I went to bolt up some '02 WRX brakes on my XT6 knuckles and the holes do not match up. The WRX ones are too far apart. So can I just bolt up some Legacy steering knuckles instead?

I will make is so mike.

Gen 1 BRAT Please!!!

If you need a tow just let me know. I have a truck & tow dolly. (I live in Portland) -earl

You'll have to get very creative with the radiator.

Next summer I'm looking at replacing my EJ22 in my 82 hatch with an EJ25. I was wondering if it was possible to get (at the crank) 200 N/A HP out of an EJ25? If so what would I have to do to get it? I'm not looking for gobs of HP, but around 200 would work great for me. Also I don't want to do a Turbo or NOS, I want this to be all motor.

I just installed a set of those hood pins you were looking at getting. Here they are on my hatch. They are soooo cool and work great.

Haven't made much progress yet. I'm still gathering bits and pieces. One thing I did just finish is the hood pins. Check 'em out. I think they match the car perfectly.

You can come up with me. I'm driving up, but I'm not wheeling. I don't have an off-road beast yet. I'm just looking to camp out and maybe grab a seat with some of the other wheelers out. We can ride together or follow each other up. It's all ways best to travel with someone, 2 heads are better then one. Anyway the offer's out there. -earl

I think that sounds about right.

I think that's why the guy started making the kit. It was for his Gen 2 BRAT. In fact I think I saw a photo of a Gen 2 BRAT on the 5-Lug page used as an example. So I'm pretty sure the kit will work for your BRAT.

Check out our ebay store. We've been adding new stuff lately: http://stores.shop.ebay.com/bandercomindustries__W0QQ_armrsZ1 You can buy through ebay or just PM me directly. We can do discounts on multiple decal orders too.

I know that the 2002 stuff I have will work.

So when the 5 lug swap happens so will the AWD swap as well. Let's see so far by the end of the summer I should have: 5 Lug swap WRX brakes WRX struts Cool hood latches AWD transmission Power Steering This should be a fun project summer.

The BRAT is next in line. I have a ton of parts for it, but I still need a few more before I get the lift on it. I also have an EJ22 for it as well.

I'm working on testing some axle stuff out. As soon as I have something that works I'll let you know. As far as the ball joints go I can drill out the EA81 control are to accept the XT6 ball joint and the same goes with the steering knuckle to fit the EA81 tie rod ends. So the only real issue are the axles which I'm working on now. Also I'm working on ether a top hat swap or re-drilling for the shocks.

Sure I'll get to it as soon as I finish the projects on my Hatch, Porsche & BRAT. You can pick it up sometime in the spring of 2020

Here's what I've been working on. 5-lug swap WRX Rims WRX Brakes (cleaning & painting) Thanks to the nice weather I've been very busy working on the hatch. I also but new wheel bearings in the front & I blew a set of bearings out in my rear diff, so I'm replacing that too.

I think we need odometer photos to prove the mileage before anyone is crowned Highest Subaru Mileage Champion.

What are you going to do with the old axles? I'd be interested in buying them from you. I'm going to convert my Hatch to AWD and 5 lug wheels next summer (as you already know) so I could really use those axles. Let me know, I'm in no big hurry. Thanks, earl

I got my 3rd switch in today. I made some decals to label them as to which set of fog lights they go to. Here's how they look:

Ya sure, for a sack full of money.

I pulled all the parts for a 5 lug swap from an XT6!!! I realize it's a bit of work to put them on my hatch but I'm doin' it.

CRAP!!! That's the same weekend as my brother in Laws wedding in eastern Oregon. Looks like I'm out for this one, but I will be at the old school subaru get together the weekend before.
