ok I have been gon from hear far to long.so an up date on thes car,i have got it running and have pot some miles on it,and I am imprest so far.but the water pump has started to drip so that will have to be fixed. I do wont to lift it but with out a hi lo trans not shure how mutch power i would loose with bigger tires.

I had my local Napa do some fittings for the swap that I did a couple years ago. I had both the original lines and the Legacy lines, took them in and asked if they could put the original end on the rack side on the Legacy lines. Only cost me $30 for the fittings:brow:

I have a question on lift,if I build the spacers for the frunt struts 3or4 inches l do I need to off set them the 15 degres that I have read about or the longer thay are do I need more off set.

ok yester day and this morning I made 2" lift blocks and spacers for the rear, and got them all put on. I will try to down load pitchurs,

You will have to go by Model number sticker on the transmission to determine the diffs ratio.

 

Marshall, only Automatic Legacys had 4.11 gears. All Manual Legacys have 3.9 gears. 1996-'99 Outback Autos have 4.44, Manual Outbacks have 4.11

 

You are incorrect.

 

90-94 Legacies, MT = 4.11 final drive.

 

90,91 Legacies, AT = 4.11 final drive

 

92-94 Leagcies, AT = 3.9 final drive.

 

from 95 on, your info is correct.

 

To the OP in this thread. The car would have been 3.7 originally, so if it's 4.11 now, the diff has already been swapped.

yes thay have been changed, thay are 4.111 with a speed not a d/r, I hope it well still make a good light duty off road rig.

to day i scored got some 27x850x14 6ply wild cats,now i need to get them mounted and get the lift made.  

You can also switch to 4.44 gears in the transmission and rear diff if you find the bigger tires are bogging it down. The front ring and pinion are about $350 from subaru, plus the work to take the trans apart. Rear diffs are really easy to find out of later auto trans cars.

nice fab work man! Ill add to the trans/rear diff mystery: my legacy was AT and had a 3.9 gear ratio. this was a 92 L wagon

I built some 2" spacers and put them on the top of the struts,looks perty good but now I have bigger tires I am going to nake a bigger lift, I have some 2x3x1/4 wall tube that I will be putting on to rase it up more, hope it is enuf.I will try to take pitchures.

Well It"s been almost a year since you started the project and now you have it running and driving,Soooo some PICs would be Nice   And I think Others would appreciate them too

to day I drilled the hubs for 6 lug,I found some nissan 14" rims,

6lug drilled and 27x85x14" tires

more later, I need to work on computer skills.

Oooh... following this project.

I want to see some more fab porn.

ther will be more but it will happen slowly.

started a rear tube bumper this weekend, I will get pitchures up wen I get a little more tacked together.

Drill for 6 lugs.... I may have to try that some day, the way 13" tires are getting so scarce.

finely went and  got plates for this car and now I plan on driving it, I hope there are no big ishues winter will be hear soon and I plan on the car being my winter ride.

I have ben driving this car for one week it was running real good,coming home one day it started it stumble, mis,act like it was running out of gas, running on 3 cylinders,when it is cold it runs fine, ofter a cuple minets it starts all ofer agine, eany thauts I am at a loss, it is a ej swap could it be not getting enuf fuel preshure?

got the check eng, lite working, it is givinga throtal pos sens code,3 long 1 short flash, so I checked it acording to the book I have and it all checked out fine, but I tsill get the code and it still runs like grap. eany ideas.

I need to up date this, I have ben driving this now for some time it is a fun car. more up dates and pitchures to come.

I need to edit the tital of this,this is a gl not a loyal.shows how mutch I know about subaru's.
