Okay ive got the lift kit and hardware ready to go on, but im confused on one piece. Where does this go?
-
okay i know this is the wrong forum for these kinds of questions but this site says i have 2 chat notifications... but when i click it it says oops something went wrong you dont have access.
-
lucky... haha yeah i like the green too, kinda olive drab ish. whenever i can make it down to idaho falls, gas is breaking me up in business right now with no job.
-
Sure is getting cold around here... -1 this morning. Hung up tarps over my garage because it has no door, and getting a propane heater to put in there tomorrow.

Took my bumper and valance off today, valance is shot. Gonna have to build a cross brace for the fenders out of flatstock or something.
-
the radio does indeed power up, everything seems to work. also i fixed the antenna plug. -
it is indeed, the push tabs work well. only thing thats messed up is the antenna plug, it has the other side of the plug stuck in it i think, would be super easy to put a new plug on there though. i have never had it powered on, but i will test it this evening to see if it will power up

I have all the interior trim pieces if anybody needs any. i also have a jumpseat frame, headrests, and seatbelts. I also have a stock radio/cassette head unit. Make an offer!

Finally got back from thanksgiving, got my lift kit! Its sweet! Although slightly confusing... Anyway, ive got everything soaking in pb blaster right now, get it started tomorrow! Oh and got the paint finished on the tailgate. Thats the scheme for the whole thing, should look nice! Also here are the wheel spacers i modified. Speaking of wheels, i just picked up a set of super nice chrome wheels, and another jackman!
-
Got bored after school today so i decided to refinish the tailgate. I didnt remove any of the dents, but i did use aircraft remover to strip down most of the paint, amazing stuff btw, and used a wire wheel to get the entire thing down to bare metal. I couldnt get the subaru emblem off because the heads of the screws are 100% stripped, so i just taped it off. I have two coats of rustoleum automotive primer on it epright now, but it got cold enough so i could see my breath so im putting off doing the moss green until tomorrow, it will give the primer a chance to cure anyway.

The Awesome Older Generation Picture Thread
RustyBrat replied to 6 Star's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
looks like my grandma's old car! that thing ran for 375k miles without any maintenance! not even an oil change! yes i know, terrible way to treat a subaru... but still a testament to their quality -
Got all patches done, riveted, and used body filler to seal them up. Sanded it down and bed-lined the whole interior, floors, roof, everything, used body filler on the dash, sanded it down and bedlined that too. Painted the trim pieces moss green. Almost done!! Im getting a set of 6 lug 15s to redrill and put atv tires on, anybody know how i can get some wheel spacers for the rear so i dont have issues clearing the control arm?
