  1. Due to the extreme angles some Subaru drive shafts are used at, failures are all too often a common experience. I replaced my 92 Legacy front passenger side shaft with an Cardone A1 aftermarket drive shaft from RockAuto some 50K miles ago and it is still doing quite well. This aftermarket shaft appeared to be built much more sturdy than the OEM shaft it replaced.
  2. If you have no marker, parking or license lights, but do have instrument panel lights, chances are the problem may be in the virgin switch which turns on the parking lights. As it is not used frequently it may develop corrosion in the OFF position. Note that the OFF position actually completes the circuit to the stalk combination light switch for the parking lights. Hence, you may find the parking lights work with the virgin switch in the ON position, but not with the stalk switch ON for parking lights, and the virgin switch in the OFF position. You may be able to clear the corrosion by flipping the virgin switch on and off multiple times. If not, a replacement may be necessary.
