That sounds like a good Idea. I am going to have a batchelor party on the 23rd of august, and We are all going to go wheeling. you are more than welcome to come scott. I don't want a big drinking party and all the other stuff that goes along with batchelor partys, so I want to keep it clean and go up to walker and wheel all day long. then come back to my place for a BBQ. But lets get those subaru's going!!!!! I'm game. Jeff

I lifted my last EA-81 for under 20 bucks. go the the rim pile and look for 4x2 square tubing. and for the bolts I got zinc plated for a shear point. Since on my brat I have grade 8's and I tear the bolts out of the body.:-\ Jeff:banana: -
Rob Sorry I missed your calls today. I was logging @ my parents house , and I couldn't hear my phone over the ChainSaw. I'll try and phone you tomorrow and see what's up!! Jeff

I got mine tinted. The only thing I don't like is backing up in the dark with the head lights on. You can't see crap. Jeff

Remember this day Rob? It is kinda sad, but you are now in the clear, you are now free to move about the country!!! RIP to the old hatch. Jeff

We should get in touch with each other some time, Will lives in concrete and My other buddy lives in hamilton, so we are all kinda right in the belt here. Jeff -
Thats a bad feeling having to take one of your cars to the junk yard. I always think in my head on the way there. Dead man a Walkin' Jeff

Eric I have No bumpers what's so ever on my Wagon. Scott gave me one a few days ago but I have yet to put it on. Jeff

We hit the main road and then the upper mainline trail. Mike broke right at the shoe fly. After he broke it there I told him, Ya if you can't get past this, you don't belong on the other side of that gate." Jeff

That is the coolest thing ever. Running the motor out of the car with a functional dash, out side of the car. Jeff -
Well we'll see what happens for now then, I would like to see what bo's rig can do!!. I went up there to day with mike that I work w/, he has a gen2 Hatch, and it was the same old gen2 song and dance, he broke an Axle 1 second in, for once I wasn't the one to ruin all the fun. I now know what it feels like , (Sorry Scott for 2 failed trips) Here is what it looked like I'm still looking forward to the big trip up there. Jeff

you might want to check that little Wire that goes to your stater from the ing. switch. If that comes undone your show is over. Jeff -
38 mins from Lake City Way, from downtown Seattle 1 hour flat, on average for a weekend, just to be safe I would say an hour. Jeff

Ya they will fit. The bolt patteren you are looking for is 4X140. you can also drill some wheels if you can find the right offset. this is how you do that, 3eyedwagon posted this on a different thread. Jeff Posted by 3eyedwagon (Will) 1) Get a hub off of a Subaru. ( you want to use an old one, like a used up drum off the rear. That way you don't run the risk of ruining the knurl mating surface for the lug studs on a good one ) 2) Knock out two opposing lug studs. Diagonal from each other. 3) Use the remaining studs, and two lug nuts to secure the hub to the wheel being drilled. Be sure it is tight, as this acts as your guide for drilling the wheel. 4) Attacking the situation from behind, use the holes in the hub as a guide to begin drilling your new holes. This means you will be drilling through the holes that you just removed the studs from, from the inside of the hub, towards the outside, and into the back of the wheel. I used a 1/2 inch drill bit. You could go a little larger if you like, but I don't see a point. The 1/2 inch holes worked perfect. And a Very good drill. And a can of Cutting Oil This will allow you to use the drill bit more than this one time. I used a good corded drill, as even my really nice cordless one would only drill a couple of wheels before the battery went dead. It was much slower as well. For the tapered mating surface for the lug nut, you could use a larger drill bit. From the front of the wheel, use the larger bit to make a small taper in the holes you just drilled, making a nice small seat for the lug nut, similar to the ones on the rest of the wheels original holes. Anything a little over an inch would work good to lightly make a tapered lug surface. I however didn't have a drill bit of that size, and didn't do this. I have yet to have any problems. For anyone scoring at home; I could really care less if you personally think this is a big no-no. A tight lug nut, is a tight lug nut. I'm not sure of the size of the drill press you have access to, but it may be more of a problem than just doing them with a hand held drill. The size of the wheel (especially if it has a tire on it) may make it very difficult to get into the drill press. I would honestly just use a really good corded drill. If you pay attention, this is a pretty hard thing to screw up. Good luck. Enjoy your new tire options!

Oh come on, I bet you have 8. Am I close? It's not a bad thing to have more than 3 Subaru's. Who knows you might have 4 or 5 cars break down, and the good news is, guys like us have 10 or 12 more to fall back on. Jeff
