I doubt that the GL box would swap into the Brat. Sounds like they have different tailshaft lengths and / or different engine bolt patterns.

On another note, if you're in Corvallis, so are we

Hey, I saw that! See you at the OG  Not in a Subaru though, I have a magically transformed '98 Mustang GT, I doubt you'll miss it, it has, uh, personality, lol...

[Brat '4 Wheel Drive' graphic - any repop interest?]

So, I have this. The car will need lower panel work, and this will probably go away for that. Is there someone on the forum who makes this sort of thing? I can crayon stencil over this to get an image, but don't have the skill to recreate it. Anyone interested in doing this? I could create some rubbings, and snail mail them, I think?

Will be a single range 4 speed. Least desirable box of all. You want a box from an 85-89 GL wagon which will bolt straight into your loyale. The earlier 4 speed dual range from a Brat is longer and won't fit without a custom tailshaft

New guy, but this seems pertinent. Based on this statement will an 85-89 GL box retrofit into a Gen I Brat? Or will there still be a tailshaft mismatch?

[Hiya]

New guy. Long time PNW guy who's fought for years to stay away from Subarus. But here I am. Bought a '78 BRAT.

Looking forward to hooning about in this thing. I have some reading to do.
