The Dude Abides Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 Man we need to show you some real mud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Abides Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 Did some work on the subaru today. Fixed some broken vacuum lines and put on my new used iac valve and other one ? I also reattached the power cord for the cb. I despirately need to clean it out. Any advice on cleaning out alot of gravel dust from an interior. I would think that water and other stuff would make a bigger mess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLoyale Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Tried a vacuume. Only scratches the surface. At carpet machine would suck all that dust out (With water) try to suck up as much dust with the vac before you clean it with a carpet machine (It'll clog up other wise) Or just rip the carpeting out and paint the floor with hurculiner!

I guess you haven't road in my EA82 then, Its loud inside (I don't know an old Subaru that isn't) I enjoying hearing the vehicle, even on long trips at interstate speeds. funny thing is even if I have a headache the sound of the car kinda relaxes it.

The Dude Abides Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Im a V8 guy. I love hearing the rumble of the engine. But even that gets way old on a daily commute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WASHroad Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 First front drive CV axle swap. '88 GL wagon, the budget rig. P-A-P used axle assy. $18.50 + 3.30 core, now no more clicking grinding and general blow up noises. My old axle hand no inner boot and a ripped outer. Grease everywhere. Looks like front brakes are in the works soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyman03 Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 (edited) Got a little anxious with the LCD in dash... so i installed it this morning, no sanding or anything yet but just to get a peak at it: and i still got cup holders! Well. at the moment I'm at a good spot. I'm going to sand down the mold so that i can apply bondo to it mold it, and make it pretty.. paint it and call it done. Perhaps tuesday I'll install the laptop. I was thinking in the glove box so that i can still utilize the DVD player in it, but we'll see. Oh btw, Money shots! -Justin Edited August 2, 2010 by crazyman03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazyman03 Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 I installed the new computer in the dash.

More then any other thread on USMB. and is close to 1300 posts - Is that something or what! -Tom It needs a sticky to the top! and a "bestest thread evar" commendation. seriously though, it needs to be stickied. also, did the final install on my stereo. its a short bodied CD-less digital media reciever. here is a pic installed. also added an amp and 2 crappy 10's. That car is a rolling enclosure. Open the hatch, sucks. close the hatch, AWESOME. here is the link for the stereo.

I would think that water and other stuff would make a bigger mess. Pull the carpet out one night when the weather man says no rain for the next day, get up in the morning, take it to a car wash and pressure wash it, tie it to the roof for the drive home. let it sit in the sun over a pivot point so any excess water can run off (I usually shop vac for good measure) and it should be dry by sun down. If you want to make a real trick out of it, get some carpet and upholstery paint and make it new looking again. Done this dozens of times with flipper cars. also, don't forget to flip it over so the insulation can dry too. and this method will remove anything except for rust stains, but those paint over Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
