hooziewhatsit Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 like zefy mentioned, I'd have the shop remove both of the rear axles and take it for a drive. If the grumbling/growling continues, then it's probably a bearing. If it stops, then it's probably the diff. (btw, they can remove the rear axles by undoing the lower strut bolt and letting the trailing arm sag down, not by removing and lowering the diff, probably much quicker & easier) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahag1978 Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 By the way, it's really hard to get a Subaru stuck. Very true... snow over the front bumper... hmmm, sometimes gets a bit dicey... all depends on the density... if it's light enough, you can make some cool rooster tails Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KNIGHTRIDER Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Hey everyone, I had recently acquired a Subaru with only 49,016 miles. So, I have a Subaru 1987 GL-10 4WD Turbo with Pneumatic Height Control. . . What my question is that it is a automatic with push button 4WD, is it a full time or part time 4WD??? Thanks, KNIGHTRIDER :clap: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subarian Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 It's not full-time 4WD. It doesn't have a center differential, so it's only intended for off-road or slippery conditions. BTW, nice score! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sister7 Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 If it has a push button then it's part time 4WD. Full time 4WD usually has stickers that say so all over the car.

BTW, nice score! Thanks. It, runs fine and is in excellent condition overall. How do i know if it has a center differential???

Subarian Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Cars that have a center differential or viscous coupling will be labeled as full-time 4wd or all-wheel drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KNIGHTRIDER Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 Is there a possibility that it can be a full-time or awd drive if it doesn't say it??? Like can you find out by VIN number or something??? Because i was looking at http://www.economysuperstar.com/milesfox/subaru/rx/vin.htm and it seems that with the vin number you can also identify the vehicle too. . .
