adding a hill holder

Featured Replies

my loyale used to be an automatic....and therefore does not have a hill holder (loyales may not have been available with them anyway...). it's now a 5-speed, and I live in a city full of hills....

 

I have the MC and HH from my old '85 in the garage, but I'm not exactly sure how I should go about plumbing these in. I haven't really taken a close look at them, so I probably could figure it out. but I thought I'd ask to see if anyone here has done it.

HH gets pluumbed into the left front brake line. You dont need to replace the MC. It has a cable that goes to the clutch fork. It mounts on the left front frame rail under the hood. Hopefully everything is there that you need.

IIRC the MC has more ports for the hill holder.

 

 

huh, I'll have to go take a peek, and see what I can find.

That would be news to me, since the HH is a pass thorugh device. I see on 1st subaru that there are differnt MC for manual vs automatic, but i dont recall if all soobies that year came with a HH.

It's too dark here to look, but I can look at my Loyale in the AM, if you like?

maybe it's a difference between the '85 and the '92, independent of the HH.....

 

 

in the morning I'll take a closer look. and compare it to the '94 LGT that I'm driving now (has HH)

Chux, I can snap a pic or two of the setup on the Xt in the daylight tomorrow, if it will help.

 

And some of the 86 brat with HH and 84 wagon w/o HH.

that'd be cool. don't know if the EA81s would be applicable though....

The ea81's are different so I didn't bother with pics of them.

 

I couldn't get a very good angle on these, but I hope it helps.

The line closest to you in the last pictures runs to the HH unit, and then the line coming from the unit goes to the DS front brake. The others go to the passengers side front, and to the rear.
