May 5, 201015 yr Help me double check this list. thinking of putting a standard PT4WD EA82 D/R into my dad's '94 LGT. it needs a new clutch/tranny anyway, and he does a lot of freeway miles, so would benefit from the FWD mode. Tranny Linkage Adapter Plate Flywheel Starter Clutch kit Xmember (I think the front legacy xmember could be modified to work with the EA82 mounts) Lengthened driveshaft 23-spline axles
May 5, 201015 yr I know Ratty2Austin is planning on doing this exact swap into his 96. Rear diff to match 3.9, I know my 94 LGT is 4.11 I don't think the starter changes, I'm not 100% but I'm pretty sure it won't make a difference. We'll let you know what we find out, when we swap his out
May 5, 201015 yr Author yea, forgot to list the rear diff. I'm not sure either on the starter. it's definitely mounted differently to work with the different flywheel. either way, I have an EA82 one....
May 6, 201015 yr This summer I will have an EJ-series Fulltime 4WD D/R tranny for sale, front diff 3.900. Only 100$ but located in Europe

Early legacy members are fully double walled, so you have to cut out the "bottom" wall to insert nuts for the mounts. *tip* 2000+ Legacy models have a crossmember that is notched out in the perfect way to mount up to the old D/R mounts. Something I noticed while up under an '03 LGT the other day. Red= You could also split the D/R, and install 25 spline stubs.

Something I noticed while up under an '03 LGT the other day. really? just manuals, I assume.... Or if its an Impreza use 93 model year axles. the '93-'94 FWD 5MT impreza axles will work in legacies. I've got a feeler out on the local forum, if not, the junkyard that has the D/R has some axles that should work....but they actually want money for them.

I've got a feeler out on the local forum, if not, the junkyard that has the D/R has some axles that should work....but they actually want money for them. Yeah, but they are weaker. I preffer the upgrade to '00+ Forrester, Outback, or WRX wagon axles.......lots of options. But in particular the '00+ Forrester axles have a really cool, steep angle, extra "stretchy" tripod type joint with sliders that are a ring inside of a ring on another rounded post, and the channels that they ride in are very deep and "fitted" around the sliders. They seem very well suited for extreme use.
