Caught up with another Brumby driver I had seen about. Thought I had been getting a wave from a young blonde. Turns out hair colour is more grey, and ....she is about my dad's age ! Tinted windows ... Still, I got her number at the moment we have a COVID19 stand off distance of five feet....the Brumbys disregarded this rule

1+ on the above information. If you have the 2 piece rear drive shaft, you can remove the section between the mid bearing and the rear diff. Torque Bind puts you in Full Time AWD.

Thanks Dave , you do the same. Most folks have gone over to face book , which I try to not get too involved with. Good to see you back here.

You should have a check engine light on. Have someone pull the codes and wright them down. You might see something like P0720 and more. Do you have a volt-ohm meter? First step. On top of the bellhousing are two large connectors 12 and 16 pins for the tranny. Unplug them and look for corrosion on the pins. If they are clean, reconnect them and go for a ride and see if you still have symptoms. Go to the following web site and download the Factory Service Manual for your 97 Legacy. Click the link and then click the link for the manual and a new page will open. Click the big green download button. Another page will start to open with an add, click the X to close that page. Then follow through on the download bar at the bottom of the screen to save or save as. This will get the whole FSM in a Zip file. Extract it to a new empty folder and look it over. https://sl-i.net/FORUM/showthread.php?18087-Subaru-Factory-Service-Manuals- Go to this section - Legacy 1997\Diagnostics Section\On-Board Diagnostics II System Open this pdf file - Diagnostics Diagnostic Chart with Trouble Code for LHD Vehicles.pdf Go to page 311, it is over half way down the document. The next page for P0720 describes one of your symptoms "excessive tight corner “braking”". That could also be the CV joints. Once you have the DTC trouble codes those pages will guide you on what to check using an Ohm meter or Volt meter. You will see Connector B11 in the wiring and lower on the page will be a picture of the connector showing pin numbers. That connector is the 16 pin connector you looked at earlier. You can go to the wiring diagram and look at the Harness pages to see where a connector number is located in the vehicle. A printer will be very helpful to print just the pages you need.

jack up the car and try spinning the tire while putting your hand on the spring.. bad bearings can often transmit vibrations that can be felt thru the spring temperature difference after driving a bit can also prove/disprove a bearing going. the corner that is going will usually be hotter than the others - use caution when checking, dont want you to get burned..
