is this a FWD only wagon? if fwd only, then price needs to come down, lots. If he gets 1800 for that, then i should be able get 4200 for my 94 LGT with 48k miles on it.

Ben, that is because those mud terrains are like 25 years old that you have on there, and when that old, the rubber turns hard like a hockey puck, not soft and pliable like a tire newer than 4 years old is. Your tires are so hard when that old, it is just like a hockey puck on the ice rink, no ability to grip.

That is normal for those not on the forums. Recommend all owners to thouroughly use a hose to flush that area every wash time, until the water flows clear. Obviously the owner before did not read the forums to do so. Clean it out and always keep it clean, or you will have no fender left due to rust.

none of the places around here sipe..... we have to travel west for that.

Or, "your not the daddy" on Maury....He better hang on to it til the DNA test.

I wouldn't even bother with a gasket, just use RTV Ultra Grey. Thats what the new ones use, no gasket.

Seeing these kind of posts makes me ill. I can get titles to junky ones, to save the good ones like this. find out how much for the entire car as it sits, no title needed.

nice little video i found.

Ag good factory carb, rebuilt, in goood repair, should get you around 28-30mpg You will probably never get above 24-25 on a Weber. Weber gives you more grunt, more torque, more useable low speed power, but the weber performance drops off about 4500rpm, and anything above nets you nothing over the factory setup.

waterpump maybe if not the alternator.

what is the paint code, I am seeing 2 colors on that BRAT.

Napa axles suck on a Subaru. May I ask why you went with napa axle, since they suck out the box when new even, I cannot drive a car with them for many miles before I toss them, and toss them far in the trash. wow. good luck,

Okay So I thought to start a new thread on rust, and the EA81 BRAT/ EA81 Hatchback GL DR 4wd. Do people know why they rust at the rockers. I got a new to me 85 hatchie, and it has some spngy soft spots on lower rockers, now my BRAT is 100% solid, but i want to knowa how to prevent it The damage looks as if water is entering the substructurem but not escaping. so maybe drill some holes.......to help thoughts please.

seems like the west coast ones they can;t give away for free, and then here in the midwest we can't come across any for less than they sold for new.

Ithink my brat is 0-60 in 17.5 no joke. I think my 94ss is 0-60 in 14.6 I think my crx si in 0-60 in 15 I think my 94lgt is about 17.5 I think my 91 Hona hatch is about 15.7 I think my 85 hatchie is about 18

Wow good luck don't want it cutting out, should be a simple cheap repair once you find the issue. most hardware stores have enough parts to fix these. Re-post the issue, hose, FP etc.

No no emission here. I have a good one off my old brat before i webered it, on the shelf. I would like to not have to use one, if the cats won't get damaged without. This car has new cats now. I also think the reason it didn't pas emission in CO was due to this shortly failing. It sure melty on me.

^ sure why not these older ej22 legacies are bullet proof tanks. in this forum, in 100 years down the road, these old ej22 will still be running, as well as the older ea81's so yeah rok them however we can.

I have read, and re-read, and reread again the first post for your question, and did not see that part.. Actually the post more was like i found this, and now what? not asking a specific question. So you found this lsd fiff in the car, then found the stub in the trunk, then ????/ please be more clear i am sorry i cannot tell you more yet.

^^ tape off your radiator support next time, i see some splatter of the rubbing compound above right light .... good job. the poster probably talke of hella 500 even with polish, the light yellow in 3-4 months. repeat as necessary.....

It is a reverse snap ring. It is designed to have a little movement smaller to the axle stub shaft when you pop it into the carrier. Think of it this way, Think just a regular snap ring that you spread and put over a shaft. This one, the snap ring compresses smaller while it is inserted into the diff carrier, then it spreads back once in place at that lock it in. It has outward pressure ....

I am going to plan to fix the rust once spring thaw is here. rockers have some rot already starting to come on good. Main thing is to get some new seats in the front for now, and address the interior cosmetics, and replace whatever is bad, broken or missing. It has a junky new, but reman axle is front that is wobbly, so that has to go ASAP. And, it has a bearing going out on the passenger rear. It got somewhat worse on the drive back, and I can move the wheel hub with the car on ground slightly, and it is more noisy at first goes away some when driving. Even though it would not pass CO emissions, it runs rally strong and healthy down the road, so the carb will not be touched, unless the particles from the ASV cause issues later.

Changed oil and filter, changed out the tires. Just brought it home yesterday. It broke down on my way here, see that post for more.

just unloaded the spares. time to clean out the garage again and get my labeling skills worked on.

already changed the tires. Fronts were good, but backs not as good. Now they all match perfect.
