Need Pic of early 80's GL coupe
Turbone replied to Bucky92's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
1982 GL Coupe with Enkies I owned for a while. Put a 5spd and a Weber on it, it scooted real good. Traded it for my Hatch. 1982 GLF Coupe, my first Soob. 5spd all stock, to many speeding ticks. Then theres my last Coupe, the 84 4wd Turbo. I'm thinking the next Coupe is going to be a little, uh, extreme -

'sniff sniff' I smell jealously here

Seems like they come in more frequently at the yards up north. The Tacoma PAP is located off of Hwy 512 and Steele St.

New guy with Tranny trouble

DOJ > Double Offset Joint. Its the inner joint. You right about the roll/spring pin, altho they dont fall out that often. Hey, I complain when I have to work on my car outside when its 32deg -

Have you ever removed the inner DOJ to do the bearings? Might want to check and see if the DOJ is on the axle stub, it might have a broken or lost roll pin too. Now thats the easiest to fix -

I was thinking the same thing. But more like, "Man, I bet Miles is eating his heart out" And Pat is doing it all by himself(driving and all). -

It could also be that the splines on one of the hubs are stripped out. If there are caps on the wheels, pull them off. Then put the car in gear and see if the axle is moving but the wheel isnt. Also, the front diff might be toast. Hence the noises, but this could also be a hub/grinding. Will, you haven tried very hard. The Subaru 3AT is a POS. And thats from experiance. -
Can you prevent apple core of governor gear?
Turbone replied to rayfordmachen's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Replacing the gov with another used one will last for a little while. But with it worn that bad, I'm pretty sure the worm gear inside the diff is bad too and it will in short order wear out the one you just put in. Might be a good idea to check the gov before getting the next tranny and installing it. I've never heard of a alum replacement, whats the deal on that Moosen? What part is replaced? -
Edrach has a son in S.A. Might want to PM him.

Glad you made it thru the bumps in the road so far. Also hope you get your 4wd back, youre going to need it. Get some rest, do some meditating I'm not sure I could handle all that stress. -
Wats the difference between a BRUMBY and a BRAT?

Dont forget, fluids rotate in the other direction also -
He actually removed the back hatch and had a tonnau cover made for it. It did have some leakage issues tho.

Turbone replied to richierich's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Still? Not another T-Coupe Marks got a couple, but I think he has more RX's then anyone here. XT6's too -
I see you have a spot for photos on the spreadsheet. Do you want one? Also, is there anyway to put dates on each one, that way we know when they were added to the register. I would love to know where that 89 RX in Everett went to and when. Edit = I see now, looking back to 87 that there are pics. I'll send one to you Corky.
