jeep5.9litre Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Anyone ever hook up an ea82 D/R tranny to an outback wagon? I mean by using the adapter plate from AA?? Im thinking of trying this and wondering how it worked ot and how hard it was to complete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calebz Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Theres a guy here that did a forester with an EA82DR. Don't remember his name, but have seen him in new gen. Might try searching there. Should be the same process for the outback Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

operose Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 forester_ranger I think was his name Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballitch Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 that is his name...but the best part of it is that he has a LSD in the front diff of the EA82 D/R tranny. ~Josh~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Range Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 John Bloom did that swap into forrester ranger's ride.. don't really know John's status on this board anymore, but this is the only ea d/r into an ej car that I know of. The only real trick is the front stubb shafts, there are a few way around this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbchux Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 front axles are easy, FWD impreza's use a 23-spline inner DOJ cup, just like EA82 N/As. and the axles are the same as the legacy ones (or at least Gen 1 legacies....I can't say about later ones). the trick is driveshaft, as the EJ one won't go into the back of the tranny...and the EA one uses a different center carrier bracket. a custom shaft will probably need to be used. and then there's the crossmember....and linkage. I haven't looked at that yet.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
