September 2, 200817 yr OK. This pic prompts a question. See that little plug to the left (looking at it) of the crank pulley? What is that?! My engine has it too but it's not plugged into anything. Something Subaru put there as an evil plan to confuse me 20 some odd years later?

September 3, 200817 yr Author I surfaced the flywheel replaced the pilot, release bearings . I had to weld in the wear spots from the clutch fork on the release bearing housing ears. I order my parts : rear main seal, 180*thermistat, headgasket kit, ,oil pan gaskets,hatchback struts...
September 4, 200817 yr I had to weld in the wear spots from the clutch fork on the release bearing housing ears. How'ed you weld that? Looked like a casting to me and I know that welidng stuff like that wrong can just lead to a breakage. Mine had wear as well. I was afraid to mess with it and the welder though. So I left it alone.

I just used the wire feed..you could just JB weld it and grind it down... The divits were so small ..hardly any added meterial...spot weld....There is not much too worry about really..I've welded cast many times with no issues..if it's small and not a huge peice no biggie..

September 17, 200817 yr Yeah the spare with my set of 505's was just slightly narrower than the rest but could still take the same tire as the others. (But I do not have THAT spare as I alreay had a fullsize 14" spare for mine, and someone slse needed it more)
September 18, 200817 yr Author I got two pugs sandblasted/primed for black paint Dropped off two wheels to tire shop for a set of cooper weathermaster snows for now....I can't choke on swampers yet...

I also scored a set of 53" x-bars w/ barcraffters raingutter mounts/w locks for $60...(the thule mounts are $140 + another $50 for x-bars )so my outback overhead rack with lightforce rmdl 170s, hella ff75(backup lamps) will bolt right on...just have to wire it in..
