i have to agree with the flame wrench idea. You could find someone with a torch set up and have them heat the nuts for you. you only need the nuts red hot most of the time. the nut will get hot and expand therefore breaking the rust bond. Take your tool set with you. Loosen them, drive back home to complete the work.

Possible new rim possibilties?????????
Will Smith replied to HardcoreSoob's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
seems to me if I understand you that is, you may be able to drill out the Honda hubs to the correct 1/4" larger diameter and just use longer bolts to go through the wheel then the hub and into the rotor. A lot of trailers and farm equpment use bolts instead of a stud and nut to hold wheels on with. The heads have tapered shoulder. The only problem might be the spline count on the axle shafts may be different. Might could just use the Subaru hubs and Honda rims with the holes drilled 1/4" larger to fit. Anyone else understand this or am I in my own little world? -

hey I like that swing out spare tire assembly too. -
if your AC has not worked for 3 years you will have to replace the expansion valve and most likely the drier. Add one ounce of oil per item replaced. I use R12a, a compatible freon alternative, no oil flush lower head pressures. Find it here http://www.foxtoolsupply.com/HC-12a.htm. My system took about a can and a half.
