June 5, 20223 yr Just bought a low mileage wagon! I have it running and am going to be going through everything. Is there a resource for information and aftermarket parts/lifts etc?
June 5, 20223 yr This forum is a huge source of information! Do some searching for the info you want. You might have to use google with your search word then “site:www.ultimatesubaru.org” to restrict the search to this forum Cheers Bennie
June 5, 20223 yr From your info it looks like you know what you’re doing. You do what you want but I offer to you that you just flip it to an enthusiast, or appreciate the vehicle for what it was upon its manufacture. Enjoy it !
June 5, 20223 yr you would be lucky to find used stock parts your best bet if you plan on keeping it on the road for any langth of time is to pick up a few extra parts cars you need your own junk yard or sell it to someone who already has a junk yards worth of parts and help save someone elses baby Edited June 5, 20223 yr by ferp420

I bought an 87 DL wagon with 240,000 miles a few months back and just last night test ran it for a few moments after repairing a bad head gasket and other neglected engine items. Now I'm installing the radiator so I can safely run it longer and also doing lots of cleanup work along the way. I hoped a one-owner car might have received proper maintenance from the seemingly proud owner but I was mistaken. Either he or his mechanic performed a lot of questionable repairs. Don't know if it was lack of funds or simply didn't care to do it right. I've had to use 4-5 vendors including eBay to find parts and you really have to check them closely when you get them. I got a matching set of rear wheel cylinders last week and luckily removed the dust covers to check them out before I installed them and found the bores where two different sizes!
