I may have some parts after the Show. To busy to strip the parts car right now. You missed out on that engine. I'm keeping it now :-p But when I decide to swap, I'll let you know about the old one. Its running great at the moment.

When you do the brushes, make sure you clean out all the dust. You have to flush the system to change the fluid type.

Can I adjust the front height on my 84 Brat?
Turbone replied to Subieguy's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Almost all of the 4wd EA81's have adjustable front struts. Look for bolts on both sides of the bottom strut plate. -
Swapping Center Consoles

Depends on what deck you get. But in general, they stick out at least a inch. -
Opinions on High Quality Brake Rotors: EA81
Turbone replied to carfreak85's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
About 4mo ago I got some Brembo front rotors for my Brat off Ebay. Just installed them a few weeks ago and it really helped. I just went thru all my emails and might have deleted all the info I'll see what I can find on Ebay. -
Ok, back on topic. I should have the RX road worthy Fri. I still need the seal, the Dealer will have it tomorrow. I would have it done tomorrow, but I have a unpleasant task to attend to. Our Fire Chief's Service is tomorrow and its going to be a all day thing. For you locals, watch the 6pm news, it will be noted. Well, it was sort of on topic

Anybody want to go to WCSS10 from Colorado?
Turbone replied to ShawnW's topic in Meet n' Greet. Your USMB Welcome Center
You bringing your own lighter fluid? And gogurt? :-p -
I've dreamt of a 4 link for years :-p Are there any Sami's out there with 4 links?

when are you hitting the road for wcss 10
Turbone replied to subaruguru's topic in Meet n' Greet. Your USMB Welcome Center
I'll see if I can get some of that yellow Police tape they use for "incidents" -
Well, I cant make it :-\ I have a doctors app that day(IME). I just called and asked why they schecduled it on a Sat and they said it was the earliest/next opening they had. I cant reschedule it, its for Insurance

Oops, wrong thread.

Qmans Brat is the ultimate in straight axle setups. Even had a electric locker. It has a Isuzu rearend and a Nissan T-Case. And its a tad narrower than a Subaru track. Death Hatch never moved under its own power I dont think (never finished).

what do you think its worth
Turbone replied to bigo1966's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Yeah, but you might have a problem doing t-belts on it tho -

Turbone replied to bigo1966's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
$300 - $400 max. I see lots of potential problems with it. -
Possible XT parts for Cheep
Turbone replied to The Dude Abides's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
The steering column surround. But if he isnt careful, it will be a waste of time. -
Ah, what a difference :-p And I think I might have found my low idle stumble/vac leak. When I was loosening the TB bolts, I found one on the bottom that was loose. I got.......creative with using the RX throttle cable. It will do for the moment. Some of the IC I have will also make do on the 90 coming from the turbo. Unfortunately, the rear bearing I was going to replace will have to wait till Thurs when the correct part comes in

BUMP noise in rear...What is it?
Turbone replied to Born_a_Brat's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Check the bushing in the rear diff hanger. Its the round one on top in the front. -
Thanks for the pics, Tex. When Russ was over today, this is exactly what he told me you did. He said when he was doing his setup, he picked your brain for help :-p Is that the stock or XT throttle cable? And did you get the Samco Y-pipe on Ebay?
-
I was a little disappointed today with the guy. He was there all day and we were all outside, working. I had Mykey over and then later Caboob showed up. He kept looking over, but not once said anything to us. I'm having a feud with the owners, so they might have warned him to stay away from the crazy guy next door Oh well, if he was a true Subaru fanatic, he would have said something.
-
I thought he missed my house at first :-p They are pulling the doublewide out next door to me and I guess this guy is doing some work prior to the pull. I dont recognise the Brat, but I'm sure I will be talking to him. Like the dual axle trailer.
-
Hmmm, wish it wasnt the weekend after WCSS10. But if I can, I would love to make it. Never been to Walker yet and my Hatch has just been sitting, growing moss :-\

Need a little info about EA82Turbo
Turbone replied to trikerbob's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I would dismiss the idea of using a EA82T in your trike. To many headaches. What would be a better choice and withe a little more HP, would be the EJ22. Or even the EJ18. Much more dependable, bullet proof and many more of these are becoming available now. -
Depends on if you want it shipped or you come and pick it up. How far are you from Puyallup/Sumner?

Glad to see I'm not the only nut working in a dirt driveway :-p
