What year and engine? Did you try rockauto.com?

My '84 GL has adjustables. One is marked '85.

Best of luck to ya. I got a pump from rockauto; AISIN WPF-005 to keep it OEM for my 1984 ea81. https://www.rockauto.com/en/parts/aisin,WPF005,water+pump,2208

Looks like the pressed on pulley that comes attached to the waterpump. If you have had it changed with a lifetime warranty, you'd likely be due a defective exchange, if not, you'll have to replace that waterpump. Looks caked with oily residue. I've never seen one detach but really haven't seen it all. Try not to drive it though. Your waterpump is non functional and WILL blow head gaskets and/or worse if it hasn't already!

Thanks for that info, el_freddo. I have an '84 GL wagon. Only the fronts have head rests and I only see holes, but no base plates, that the two rods of the head rest go into on the top of the particular seat. Other brand cars usually respond to a yank or hard push, but not this one.

Sooo...Anyone out there who may be able to clue me in on how to release my headrests?...mine seem frozen and I have new seat covers to install. Thanks for all suggestions.

I learned at 17 on a 1959 VW bus 4 spd. manual and progressed some 10 years later to learn how to drive a 5&4 in a Peterbilt. Automatics became an optional luxury. Sticks have always been my choice.

Yes, those manual transmissions are kinda alien to youngsters nowadays!

I found a simple one from China but after ordering, it never arrived, but my refund did. I don't have electric locks and merely need it for motion detection as well as a panic button. Hard to find so far. Good luck, Subarule. I want to monitor this as I have the need, been 4 times that someone has ransacked mine. I used to forget ,with hands full, to lock doors. I do a walk around as I leave and before bedtime.

Following this for my '84 GL ea81. Best of luck your way. I want to replace mine as well.

It is a noise suppressing capacitor which filters out the alternator's noise from your sound system. You will find these at any store or shop that deals with radios or automotive sound systems, or electronics suppliers.

Trim I am looking for is door handle plastic for a 1984 GL. Looking for two, Beige, that are not sun rotted like mine are. Do you have and if so, how much? Thanks.

I have a Chiltons and same vehicle. I don't know but Chiltons is difficult and I am researching the How To Keep your Subaru Alive. I do know they are located near the fuse box. UPDATE: Chiltons claims carbureted versions do not have a relay so there is a break like a fuse or bad connection at the pump, likely.

Bummer for that and I had that happen as well quite some time ago with my '87 GL ea82. I have often wondered if my expedited measure of not changing the tensioner and pulleys may have contributed to early failure as I followed the procedure otherwise. Just glad it didn't happen in Nowhereville either time. My present Subie is a dinosaur '84 GL wagon with the gear driven ea81. Regressed to seemingly more reliability, so far. BTW, I like the air cleaner on your trike!

Thank you, carfreak85. Accidentally ordering three mounts at first, I just added the final one left out and now have a total of 4 mounts to complete it. I had thought after being underneath that I had seen 4 mounts but had forgotten for sure. The pitch stopper, above, seems in great condition. I greatly appreciate your input!

How many are required for the ea81 trans.? I am too lazy to look right now. I just ordered two engine and one trans from rockauto and went by that quantity because an eBay seller had offered that qty. 3 package. My torquey critter is cracking the exhaust pipe from flex due to junk mounts.

Got my missing tool bag, along with the lug wrench gone missing, from a Pick-Your-Part, some time ago

Just bought two NAPA bearings for my 4WD 1984 GL wagon; NAPA Part number P6207J (PGB not shown in the title but IS NAPA Performer.) to go along with NEW Cardone 66-7001 axles, (seals 15801(inner) and 19603 (outer) as well). Right side for now. UPDATE: Both seals were wrong. Installer shop replaced with the correct ones from O'Reilly's; a National number I will list soon in another edit.

Check exhaust for flow as well. Sometimes backfires wreak havoc, clogging inside of the muffler as I found out with a Dodge. Vehicle also gets hotter with speed. Best of luck to ya!

As far as the seals go the old ones will probably get distorted when you pull them out so you may as well just change them

Here is a phone camera pic of my '84 GL wagon with Weber. Hopefully, it helps.

Anyone here have a source for the rear axles? Rockauto no longer has them listed. I have a 1984 GL 4WD wagon that I am seeking them for. Thanks for all help and do have a great day, all!

My 1984 GL heater blows cold and both hoses are hot. Only cold air comes through like not being directed through the core, as if outside air is the product. I pulled the covers; above feet and over the linkages and saw the link to the blender but that is as far as I could see. When turning heat selector, about 3/4 of the way, it gets suspiciously easy and produces no heat but just for a brief time, maybe 30 seconds and stops, only cold. All manuals show murky pictures if anything at all. It is like I have to wait until I see another wrecking yard subject I can dissect to learn from.

My 84 is very much the same and my blower motor is located below the glove box behind the parcel shelf.

I am in the USA and have a similar problem with my 1984 GL wagon. Pretty much universal around that time frame but seems parts are really getting scarce. My needs are not immediate and I wish you the best of success.
