My daily driver car is a 93 front driver subaru legacy.Between it understeering unless I make a big move or incinerating tires if I press the gas to hard .The spining tires doesn't bother me but it when it spins it wants to go into the other lane.

 

Anyway I was thinking of either selling it an getting a 90-94 AWD manual sedan or even just converting it to awd.With one kicker on both options,I would be disabling the the AWD.I was thinking just running Cv stub shafts to keep the wheel bearings happy and welding the center diff.My question is this: exactly how much work is it to weld the center diff and put the transmission back together so it works?

 

thanks in advance.

Shouldn't be hard at all. You remove the tail shaft housing of the transmission (8 bolts) and the center diff pulls right out. Disassembling it is probably more difficult than getting it out. But you can find the instructions for how to do so in any FSM from like 90 - 2004 Legacy or Impreza.

 

You do have to remove the exhaust system, and the drive shaft, but the transmission does not need to come completely out to remove/modify/change, the center diff.
