need to know what this is...
MilesFox replied to Meeky Moose's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
it will run without it, but it might knock under boost..... -
yeah, i was referring to the dual range. the exception is the dual range RX trans, 3.7 full-time, but that would be referred to as the RX trans. then there are 5spd pushbutton, single range, both turbo and non turbo so 5spd dual range refers to all the 3.9 that did not come with a turbo

Michigan Meet And Greet
MilesFox replied to NoahDL88's topic in Meet n' Greet. Your USMB Welcome Center
yeah, but if michigan is the next county north, why the hell not. would you want to stay behind while there is a meet happening next door? i am claiming the whole tri-state area! -
look for any 5spd dual range. the 5spd never came with the turbo, and autos dont have low range the 5spd has the lowest gear reduction, and 3.9 final drive the 85-86 i think have the lowest reduction gear...

on 85 and 86, the knock sensor is part of the mechanical distributopr system, and both it and the distributor tie into the Knock Control Unit i think one from an ea81t would work, too -
call it trashwagon all you want. i invented the term, you have my permission to use it! TrashWahon © Miles Fox!

i think its cool that someone would call their ride a trashwagon now was it called that, or did you get the name from here? i met a girl that said she had a trashwagon, not knowing about mine!

Michigan Meet And Greet
MilesFox replied to NoahDL88's topic in Meet n' Greet. Your USMB Welcome Center

87 RS turbo 3-door in junkyard
MilesFox replied to MilesFox's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
josh (1ABAJA) id giving them a call to pitch a deal, and for details. but the guy there told me he had no turbos until i told him the black one was turbo i speculate the turbo has a bad head gasket at worst, a broken timing belt, or a bad trans. i would suspect the 4x4 wagon has just a broken belt, or a bad clutch. -
87 RS turbo 3-door in junkyard
MilesFox replied to MilesFox's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
i am speculating lsd, maybe it doe4snt, but it definately had an automatic. it also has the 87 style steering wheel. the outside is a little rough, but normal for what's expected around here. the interior is in pretty good shape for how the car looks lets say, ported heads, 5spd dual range, or 5spd full time xt6 trans, 5-lug suspension(i have all the parts minus struts) it could pobably be built to spank a stock RX without too much effort -
87 RS turbo 3-door in junkyard
MilesFox replied to MilesFox's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
i will make an offer for both the RS and the dual range wagon and see if they will accept. if the price is right, i'm sure they would sell both to make thir money quick and all at once. i figured an offer of 300, but i will start with 200, to entertain the notion -
i just realized i have 43 megs of stuff. i have started more pages having to do with maintenance, service, and modifications. i have linked the existing pages as i make them, althought content needs to be added to each page. once it goes on-line, all of the pages that have content or are complete will have a link. Text will be there for the pages in progress, and the link will be activated once that page is up All of the content thus far is of my own origination, pictures i have taken myself, or ohotos that i have scanned. and a link to USMB The Frame is complete. The Front page is complete. the "My Subarus" page is complete, with links to mine and our local rides. All of the rides listed will have a link, and all of the rides that are linked are complete, or have all of the pictures but no text, at this moment I have other stuff that the navigation bar links to, but i will get the SUBARU done first

MilesFox replied to MilesFox's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...

Syncro and CV replacement?
MilesFox replied to LJRacing91's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
the cv axle can be serviced with a 36mm nut, a 3/16 in drift punch, and a good sized hammer. if you search, you will find a lot on the procedure, many different tricks to the trade. if the axle doesnt pop too bad, the boots can be replaced, also -
admin: please sticky Now that i have my computer set up at my sisters, and have recovered all of my website project, i would like to feature some of your rides! for those of you who are interested, email me some pics and a short write-up, explaining any particular details about the car. you can send me HTML pages email too. I am going to feature them in the "Featured Rides" link for those of you who would claim to be a Subaru Alliance member(any one who wants to be) i will feature them in "Subaru Alliance Members Rides" also ATTN edrach: i have a copyof the WCSS disc you gave me. can i have permission to use the pics, with yopur photo credits? and assuming permission granted, is there anyone who DOES NOT want their ride shown? i have quite a bit going on, several megs. i just need to find a host. i will be finishing up what i have started, and will be adding to what i have already. any other content you may have i will feature also. anyone who wants a link to their stuff post it here

i saw it there, black 3-door with wing, no body ground effect. turbo and automatic(i assume its 4wd) does it have a rear lsd? it has a gold soob logo on the rear trunk lid, grey interior. its all there minus the wheels. the motor is all there, but it looks like squirrels have been living under the hood.
-
somewhere i got a pic of a crapalier jumping rr tracks. but it doesnt come out well. its not a soob, but its still a trashwagon!
-
it would be cool to paint a picture of a trashwagon with a picture of a trashwagon on a trashwagon

could be a bad headlight. i got a ticket for driving with the brights working only on 1 light(no lo beam) i had the dash apart before looking for a relay when i first got the car. i replaced the bulbs and it was all good(i re-uused the ones from trashwagon 4, which came from a buick)
