If "OZIFIED" on my plate doesn't let you konw I'm on the USMB. . . what will? lol I'm in need of more USMB stickers too. Feel free to bring them out of mothballs Mick. Black ones.

If you go to Brett's http://www.ausubaru.com/ausubaru/html/modules.php?name=Forums site, you'll find a bunch of posts from folks upset about Brett not responding to their emails. You may have a loooooooonnnnngggg wait if you wanna go with an original BYB kit from Brett. It also appears that if you question him or his reliablilty, they'll quickly ban you.

If the engine says ea71, then it is. 1600, not 1800.

You'll be waiting for a while. He's not gonna be distributing the EJ kits. Too spendy, plus they involve a spendy OB/Forester strut swap. The stock struts won't allow anything bigger than a 185/70/14 for a tire. You'll have to talk to Mudrat about EJ lifts.

When we went thru the Rubicon, the three Soobs all used welded diffs. The diffs all held together fine. Axles too, don't think we broke too many. Stub axles broke a lot. I think we replaced 5. Lots of traction means you don't have to air down tires, so you get a little more clearance. Ken ran 40lbs the whole time.

He doesn't have to believe the hype. But I bet he hates parrallel parking. lol

All the answers to your questions are in the Off Road Forum in the FAQ sticky. Give it a try.

I'll loan you my garage and help if you decide to take it on.

A board member told me today he caught an LSD on ebay going for over 300 bucks. It had a reference at the bottom to come to this board to find out how to convert it to 3.9. Wonder what board member it is sniping and using us to help him.

The same. Guess that's the way it goes, caught me slippin'. The pros and cons of posting stuff on ebay. . . Plan B.

This year, beer will have to be confined to tent sites and RVs. No designated Beer section. There will be a fire for us to gather around near the camp sites, no one will say anything if you're having one while socializing at night. They wanted a 1,000,000 dollar insurance policy on top of the 1,000,000 policy we already have to have. Sorry.

I'll definitely buy into that. When I jsut scored the tires/wheels for my OBS, I chose to put the two most worn tires oposite eachother, rather than both on the front or rear.

I'm pretty good at being on time. We can plan on leaving there at 8:30.

This one could very well be the one. WOW! Hope she's OK!

I'm lovin that part about the tires!! Section 3.2, A, 2-3!!The OBS is gonna be a tough nut for you competitors to crack. hehe

I added this to the FAQ Sticky. Thanks. I'll leave this thread open for a little while and see if anyone can fill in the missing blanks.

Same as last year. Your car is your tent, you pay as if it were your tent. I don't see two people sleeping very comfortably in a 76 wagon. lol You did say the Missus was gonna try and make it this year too, right?

I've got a feeling we'll be wearing out the winches once water gets added to the mud pit. There are a whole bunch of bleachers we'll be setting up for spectators.

logs and tires

ain't gonna happen. It's waiting for me to get another hatch. Same with the roll bar.

Thanks Jibs. Indeed, lots of room. This year, about 2-3 times as much space for tents. No reservations, spots will get grabbed as folks show up. Looks like people will be able to parke their cars near their tents there's so much room. more of the camping area. . .

Count on me to spend 500 if I get pick of the litter. lol

Circled in Red are your 3.9 Open parts. Circled in Blue are the 3.7 LSD parts. These are what you keep. (along with the stub axles from the LSD unit, not shown)
