  1. Yeah, I figured that out when I measured where to cut. It's all done now, and I'm installing a winch on the front bumper. Does anyone have a spare CB antenna lying around? the one I have barely gets signal past 30 feet away, since its only a foot tall magnetic one.
  2. Huh.. Turns out my tabs been expired since early june XD I wont be able to make it unfortunatly. Cant afford gas, tabs, AND a new plate >___<
  3. Naw, I have all 4 mounted and fenders cut/ hammered so they don't rub at all. Took a test drive up a steep dirt trail with huge ruts, and made it pretty good :3
  4. I'm going to be lugging around 4 stock tires, as well as a whole bunch of spare parts i might break. Sweeet! I could help you drill your wheels, or your hubs.
  5. Now its not a matter of fitting the tires.. Its about gas money XD I cut my fenders last night and the tires fit ok..
  6. I think you mean R134A, R12 is super expensive and you cannot buy it without a license. There are flush kits to clean out any moisture in an old system, also.
  7. i might just cut the fenders and go without the lift :3
  8. I was looking at some of the Subaru off-roading vids.. And i noticed alot don't have lifts.. They just have the fenders cut out.. what do you do about the back door? Do you weld it? or just relocate the rear seal?
  9. Well i just got some new tires for my wagon.. Maybee if I can lift it in a week to actualy FIT the tires, lol.
  10. Hey, I can go pick the parts up if you give me gas money. That is if Subaruguru is up for it..
  11. Well, I got one on.. Just for fun and it looks like I'm going to have to do at least a 4" lift lol
  12. Got 4 15X7 6 lug wheels today. $100 on CR They have 30"x9.5" mud tires on it right now im gonna see if i can fit the 30's before i mount the 27's that i have lined up
  13. What I've done in the past when the valves don't seat fully is take an electric drill and some grinding paste stuff.. (like liquid sandpaper) attach the valve stem to the drill.. and pull up with the drill, with the valve in the head.. takes a few minutes and guarantees a good tight fit
  14. You live in lewis county? what part? I live east of centralia

  15. Would be really nice.. How much are you looking for? Maybee we can work something out
  16. I'd like to go, but its one hell of a drive for me. I'll get back to you on it.. put me down as a maybe.. cause i really do love rallying the heck out of this car with friends. I could pick anyone on the way up there.. help with gas is optional too hehe I'm down by Chehalis/Centralia..
  17. Financial help knows no distance haha
  18. I've been really thinking about it.. I know it could be done. I've had this car down to its shell.. I know 90% of the holes in the body, and it wouldn't be hard to seal them all up.. I'd take alot of sheet metal and make the whole underside of the car smooth.. aside from the driveshaft, and fill it with expandable foam. I'd get a small motorcycle sprocket that has the same bolt locations as the driveshaft.. Bolt it on in between the shaft and the diff. Get another sprocket and PTO shaft.. And have the shaft go under the diff. I would attach the prop to the PTO shaft when needed. I'd make a snorkel and I'd seal off all the electronics, the transmition, and engine. I'd also fill most of the engine compartment with foam.. I'd also make a rudder that would attach to a couple levers. I know it can be done.. I have the time, the will and the knowledge to do most of this.. but I don't have the money.. Anyone want to help build the first amphibious Subaru wagon? lol
