ewwww glad we don't use salt here... they do use that magnesium chloride though, and it causes problems too... just not as bad as salt

I hadn't heard of Rock auto until I saw it on the USMB. Good lord, I just got some KYB Gr2 rears for my Jeep for $20 less, each, than Partsamerica. I saved so much I was able to buy some rears for my Loyale RS.

Wow cool stuff

my left one needed two screws, but it works better than a glue because you just loosen the screw to change the bulb - and it doesn't need to be tight enough to strip out the screw hole in the plastic, be gentle, it just traps the socket in the hole and keeps it from rattling around and burning out the bulb prematurely really glad I had a useful idea (for once)

yes, I have a much easier fix and it has been fine for over a year (the pic is recent) http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=95519

+1 shoot the line from the engine side so it drains back to the transmission end, (let it run off in the snow) and dry while your switching the leaky one out

awesome, bet that's it - good one

is it sucking air through a leak in the line?

I saw a pic on the web, some dealership had done one for a parts chaser... it was pretty heinous looking... maybe it was the black and yellow clown stripes that threw me

Sweet

No, while it's out of the car, it's a great time to change the timing belts and check or replace the idler pulleys. it's time for this engine to have it's oil pump pulled (front of engine behind filter behind timing belt) and new o rings put in too the o-ring kit is $35, the belts, what? $45 without the idlers I'd do the water pump and change the valve cover gaskets too, just for gp if it stops raining long enough I'll warm the engine and do a compression check, I'm not looking to make a killer profit - I think the bbs would beat me up if I was a *&^%head this is helping me out too, it gets me off my @$$ and ends the talk and begins the work of swapping in my rig - after all, if my engine is gone, I just HAVE to put something back in don't I? I'll send you a PM with some background on the car

I was getting ready to pull mine out, it's a 1990 SPFI 1.8 with 215K on it. It needs a 'nose job', but it has no major issues... shoot me a PM and we can see if it will work for you. I could possibly put it in my Jeep's cargo area and bring it to you - if you could pay ga$ co$t.

hell, buy mine and do a 'nose job' on it while it's out, its a spfi 1.8, is yours fuel injected or carbbed?

How big is the bank? most swappers go with an EJ series engine swap wikipedia has a good section on suubie engines if you google 'ej 22' it'll lead you there I'd think stock ea82 engines would be pretty plentiful in the usmb classifieds too

there is NOTHING here, I'd have to drive to Spokane in my jeep and get it, where in portland are there 'tons of them'?

That's out of my expertise, sorry. But it does look great and used ea82 engines are very inexpensive. If you're not under pressure to use it right away, why don't you amuse yourself and put in a more powerful engine than stock?

you really think they would have one? I'd drive up next weekend to get one and a dif that matches...

I think they do, look at the door pillar

I know when I transport camels I have had to add a block to the rear springs, upgrade the brakes and use a pressure washer to clean the interior... the thing I really hate is when they spit on the inside of the windshield as I'm driving

If you were closer I'd help just to help out

Found a dr 5 spd in a junkyard, but they want $450 for it... seems a little high to me, what do other people think it's worth?

broken motor mount?

where in the (*&^ do you guys keep finding this stuff? )(*&^ %$##%* ()9 !!
