March 15, 20179 yr Does anyone know what type of rear wheel drive manual transmission will fit a 1984 Subaru DL 4x4 wagon
March 15, 20179 yr A small, skinny one. Unless your car started life with an automatic, the trans tunnel will be pretty narrow.
March 15, 20179 yr U could keep the 4wd tranny and just take out the front drive cv axles and put it in 4wd and now you have 2wd to the rear. I had that happen, I busted an axle and I thought the tranny was out, put it in 4wd and got home. Went to the tranny shop thinking the tranny was garbage and it was only a broken cv axle. It would save you a bunch of time and money.
March 15, 20179 yr Disclaimer, you will have to disassemble a pair of front axles to convert to rwd. You have to put the hub end of the axles back in.
March 16, 20179 yr Does anyone know what type of rear wheel drive manual transmission will fit a 1984 Subaru DL 4x4 wagon Need more information. There's nothing that's a direct, bolt-in. There are probably hundreds of options with enough fabrication......
March 16, 20179 yr best to research and see whats been done before. I seem to recall there's an EA82 car out there that's RWD.
March 16, 20179 yr Install a 4WD trans Disassemble front axles and leave outer CV joints in hubs keep it in 4WD. You now have RWD. best to research and see whats been done before. I seem to recall there's an EA82 car out there that's RWD. Subaru has never offered a RWD vehicle in the use - not at least in an EA/ER and newer mainstream vehicle.

March 16, 20179 yr Can't find the one I was thinking of. There are a few with axles pulled and some EJ swapped. One called the doomwagon https://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1894611 Food for thought.
March 16, 20179 yr http://www.billsautofab.com/ Makes a custom bellhousing that mates an EJ Subaru motor to a W series toyota trans. EJ it and get a W50 from a Celica Supra or 2WD Toyota pickup. VROOM!
