Numbchux Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 I'm working with this '86 and collecting parts to do the swap. I'm trying to do the swap in a day or 2 (don't have a garage.....so I'll be borrowing space). so I've been compiling a list to make sure I've got everything I need. so I thought I'd post it up, with info on where I got all the parts. mandatory: adapter plate. Bought 2 M. Rose ones through AA when I did my car. left over. heater core lines. 3' of 5/8" inner diameter hose, plenty for both lines. rad hose adapters. got my originals at NAPA, will be getting part number tomorrow rad hoses. Both lines for a '97 outback fit perfectly on a Loyale radiator. subaru part numbers 45167AC010 and 45167AA020 radiator fan. I got a generic one from Advance auto parts for ~$50. works great. optional, but good idea: T-belt kit. couple sellers on ebay offering the full kit. water pump. included in above kit clutch. Beck/Arnley new one from RockAuto for an XT6, holds up great to EJ22 power. radiator. performanceradiator.com, 1731CBR for a '92 loyale. alt belt. it's a belt.....get it wherever it's cheapest fuel pump. only required if replacing a carbed motor. I just ordered one for a '90 Ford Grand Squire wagon, we'll see tstat. OEM. 21200AA072, 21236AA010 for the gasket hose clamps. 4x2" and 4x1" I highly recommend http://www.rockauto.com for most of these. they have some of the cheapest prices, even on OEM parts.

s'ko Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 looks about right. I would also add coolant, motor oil, oil filter, gear oil if needed a bunch of fuses in case you get a short somewhere. might want to consider starting fluid to help is turn over and a fire extinguisher in case it gets en fuego.... associated exhaust gaskets. video camera pointed at the car on start up and with you in the frame so we can watch you do the happy dance. Thanks all I can think of for now. Have fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numbchux Posted March 6, 2008 Author Share Posted March 6, 2008 I didn't see Ej engine and harness on the list hehe. figured that was kinda obvious :-p and I'm going up to the junk yard tomorrow to see what they want for a flywheel so I can have one drilled out and ready to go. and yes, all fluids. all stuff I've got around.

painter007 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 I keep seeing that you use a clutch from a xt6.is it just the disc or complete.and what year of xt6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballitch Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 You use the pres. plate, disc, and T/O bearing. My swap has 20-ish,000 mi. on it and it never slips. Did you already sort out the top passenger side motor to tranny bolt/stud? I used 2 engine studs and welded them together, after i mocked them up and cut them to the right size of course. ~Josh~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbchux Posted March 9, 2008 Author Share Posted March 9, 2008 painter. the only thing that's different between an XT6 kit and a non-turbo 4-cyl one (Beck/Arnley uses the same part number for the RX and XT6...) is the pressure plate. puts more clamping force on the disc, means more power can be held, which is necessary. my 4-cyl EA82 disc only lasted about 10k miles behind the EJ22. I've already put about 15k on it since the XT6 clutch, and it's still working like day one. Did you already sort out the top passenger side motor to tranny bolt/stud? I used 2 engine studs and welded them together, after i mocked them up and cut them to the right size of course. the M Rose plate includes all the bolts needed, you drill out the threads on the engine bellhousing, then thread the bolts from the engine side into the adapter plate, and then the same from the tranny side. works very well.

I know you know what you are talking about,but has I asked what is a xt6 and what year if this is a car. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbchux Posted March 10, 2008 Author Share Posted March 10, 2008 subaru XT6. any year. they were made from '87-'92 I believe. they are based on the 4-cyl cars, but have a 6-cyl, so more power, so the clutch kit needs to be stronger.

painter007 Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 thankyou for the info .just wanting to get all the parts I need before I do my swap to a 2.2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to buy new not remanufactered. in the write up I think it says something like use a bearing from a nissan truck ?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to buy new not remanufactered. in the write up I think it says something like use a bearing from a nissan truck ?. yep, the nissan throwout bearing is only necessary when using an XT6 clutch kit and an EA81 tranny. if you've got an EA82 trans, the XT6 bearing will work fine. let me recommend the Beck/Arnley one from Rock Auto again. it's a high quality new unit, not reman'ed, for the price of reman'ed.

painter007 Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Thanks for the info . I am in CANADA I don't think we have a Rock auto up here. the shipping and the border thing is a hassle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
painter007 Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 ok guys got my adapter plate on the way,I think. got a new clutch kit for the xt6.purchased a ej 2.2 from a 1995 legacy.but it was an auto trans and the small bearing that came in the clutch kit will not fit in the end of the crank. do I have to get a bushing for the crank??

Numbchux Posted March 30, 2008 Author Share Posted March 30, 2008 the bearing doesn't go in the crank. it goes in the flywheel. which will come off your EA82. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
painter007 Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 ok thanks .so it does not matter if it was auto or standard trans . just have to get the wiring harness from the wreckers and I am ready to start the swap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWX Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Are you saying you have a clutch kit for an auto? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
painter007 Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 NO . The motor I got is from a 95 legacy that had a auto trans. just that the end of the crank confussed me the way subaru made the end of the crank,most engines I have worked on (none subaru )there is a bushing or bearing in the end of the crank for the pilot shaft,if you are working on one with a stanard trans.
