So you noticed a big difference?
-
It's been like this for the entire time I've owned it so I don't think its the alt.
-
ok will do thanks!
-
So is this my only solution? Was yours weak before you changed it and a lot better after?
-
That's it though, no difference in power between older ones and newer ones?
-
I would say find some stiffer springs. If you cut yours it will sit lower but it's still going to lean in the corners. I noticed that when I used adjustable struts that when I cranked them up I had a much stiffer ride in the front, but that wouldn't work for you because you want it lower:)

My wipers on my Brat are extremely weak and slow even on high. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

Yet another LB the coupe update:

yeah that might not be good?!?! Well you'll get it! I'm sure it's something simple, it usually is and these motors are pretty simple so I'm confident you guys will figure it out! and if you don't just dump another motor in...I know someone will hook you up with one!! -
Are there certain years that the EA81 had more power than other years. I didn't know if the different lifters might effect the power etc. Thanks

My BRAT is stuck in a 5 foot drift

It/s pretty much the same. but hauling the motor in a Brat is a lot easier....a lot less stuff to disconnect. But as far as removing the tranny its the same. All the same stuff to disconnect. -

yes you have to remove the y-pipe and maybe the mid pipe I can't remember. The only thing that makes it harder is the fact that you're on your back under the car. -
Great Subaru 360 video!
bratman18 replied to Mike Kamm's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
cool video! I wish that there were more of those still around! How many of you guys on here have a 360? -
I would look on ebay I believe I have seen some KYB replacements that fit the Gen 1 brats. Not positive though but worth searching for

I dropped the tranny when I changed my clutch but honestly it probably is easier to pull the motor. -
