FILL UP THE FLOAT BOWLS , FILL UP THE FLOAT BOWLS , FILL UP THE FLOAT BOWLS!!!!!!!!! (monstaru bangs his fork and knife on the table, uhh i mean workbench):)cheers, brian

ok, now we are ghettoing somewhere. i do apologize for personal digs,but it seems like there is a lot of negativity surrounding what myself, and bill, as well as others have been dreaming/designing for a while now.... and i get tired of hearing it.because it is usually someone that knows better. i looked into the porsche cv's.the same thing can basically be accomplished with the later model subaru stuffs.the tensil strength of the ej axles is higher than the porsches,and the cups are about the same breaking strength as well.....now, the travel...the natural length of the ej stuffs put under an ea car would net another 2 inches at least. the front travel on an ea81 is about 5 inches.the rear, depending on the shock , can net about 7-8(but this gets into axle cup breakage territory)....... the ej stuffs could be utilized easily with a subframe. and i have only heard of like 2 people that burned up rear outputs due to stress from utilizing a second t-case...... i mean, i'm just sayin.cheers, brian

scott, isn't that what i just said? and GD,you don't have friends in machine shops?......it might help you to dream a bit .....dreaming leads to vision, vision leads to process, and process leads to product. i talk to people i know with a machine shop all the time,almost every night actually.and we discuss as many different ways to modify a subaru , as well as other vehicles. we just happen to like subarus, so we stick with them. i am stuck on the subaru cockpit.i like it's layout.so that is what i will use.in the end, it may just be a subaru motor,and some interior,but oh well....... it is the step we are at in our fab careers with our cars.... after all, we are all into "hotrods", just because they are not traditional hotrods means nothing.you ever seen what they do to traditional rods?most times they are a body with a million different parts on them from other vehicles.. i am so ************ing sick of people , mainly people with the know how, saying that it is not worth it to do this, or that to our cars..... if you do not have something cool to say about someones idea, then piss off.....it is ok that you do not want to step out of your safe little bubble and try some things.you keep telling yourselves that you can't do it, and you will never be able to...... 10 to 20 g's?to extend and reinforce some suspension pieces? ************, even to fab some completely redesigned a arms and such?your so far off dude its ridiculous....he is not building a desert racer , or rock crawler........ paris to dakar?your retarded.why not build it just for portland to eugene?at least then you would be thinking realistically.which in turn would allow your thought process to come down to human level, and maybe even allow yourself to build something you are obviously uncomfortable with... "like extending out the suspension on top of a lift"....... which in turn , WILL give you more travel regardless....... for ************s sake,quit being negative to ideas. we should demote you to "major negative" at least give the guy some consideration.....he did ask to have this topic looked at as a "lets try it" idealism.... go preach to the people that want to listen to your facts out of your tech manuals....... SO i say...LETS TRY IT!!!!!! cheers, or not.brian

you know, for a fabbin kinda guy....you sure are a puss GD........ if a guy made seperate assemblies that the diffs(thats right, i said diffs) rode in, with axles at a downward angle, and made those a solid piece,he could essentially get the best of both worlds. | /\ | |=tire /\ = axles going to diff, all caged in to form a solid unit kinda like that...........then just 3 and 4 linked it, it would be like having solid axles, then you would just need to attend to the t case..... obviously or really, you could just extend everything by like 4 inches , make it a widetrack.a arms, axles, etfc..... there are several around that ponder this almost daily......it is somewhat of the furthest part of our sickness....word 44 please shed some light if you have it..... cheers, brain

why the hell were you loosening the strut nut from the strut top ?:confused:cheers, brian

build an offroad race track.... stack a bunch of rocks to play on put trails every where in between build a rally track a mud pit a camping area invite 1000 people or so and call it WCSS.....:)kidding only about the inviting the 1000 people. but, build the rest:grin: basically build a public ORV park.have peeps sign waivers,which by the way will lower your insurance.and charge folks a small fee to use this is my dream...... cheers, brian

+seventy gazillion.....

do it. and when your axles get siezed ,beat,em break um , whatever you have to doto change them out so that you can have fresh cups with anti sieze on the splines....... i imagine a hot wrench has its attributes as well, but i have never used one.....so i dunno. then taking an axle out is not an issue.it literally takes 5 minutes after the first time... who knows,maybe you can make the record in replacing axles....... cheers, brian

i could have been meaner.these here internets are a vast sponge of knowledge.i could have just said SEARCH!!!!.............

if you go to subaruoutback.org , you will have more luck. cheers, bryon

i have closed that up with no sealant, rtv , and a stock gasket....it all worked.the nature of the close tolerance of the aluminum to the iron is good enough not to leak. but the side seals are very importante......they leak like a sieve when they go bad.and at like 10 a peice from the dealer, it is worth it everytime you tear one down.cheers, brian

were workin on it......:)cheers, brian

he said it best....BOZO...get over it, ************in pony up for a 5 spd.

right, but thats why they call me a "finisher".because i do concrete properly,and know how to finish it. not to say you don't.but ones standards when they are not in the industry are not usually what we would leave behind.finishers.its what we do.... cheers, brian

************in sick man......dig it.cheers, brain:grin:

wow, i am sorry i missed this.that looks great earl........damn nice.your getting good at paint........... glad i could help out in a small way.cool man, cool.cheers, brian

wow, those wheels are the HAWT!............which bullbar?:grin:cheers, brian

stiffer ride i would think........

that is why they encased the orange lenses in black, to be able to notice them.........i have a really good bumper for cheap.hit me up if you want it.can ship it for like 20 bucks. of course , you might check to see if'n the wiring is there for the turn signals.that may have had rectangular headlights at one point, it would make the bumper make sense...... either that or the bumper is off of a standard.with single round headlamps. cheers, brian

right, why would they be for only an ea82 body style?besides the strut top, most ea struts interchange.well, i guess all of them do, but height difference comes into play. so , why would you not be able to put these on an ea81 front?

actually, if they did their research properly .......they would not be surprised.imagine that. a boyscout of sorts.... cheers, brian

just out of curiousity, you read this where?

nice.....i love that stance.i have a twin of bklu now , for my wife that i am building.cheers, brian
