  1. cool rig, I would go 1" over stock, so if you dropped the wheel 6" mount the diff at 5"
  2. I can get it Saturday around noon for $200

  3. can pick up car for $200

  4. yep Ive done that, pull the dash pull the heater box and tear the box apart
  5. Jeff bring your car up, ill help you shorten the back like mine:banana:
  6. time for a change, since I chopped off the back I havent liked any of the configurations I have, I didnt like the spare tire on the back as I couldnt see out the back to back up, I didnt like the hatch bolted on without being able to open it a sthen I had to reach threw the side door to get the gear and I didnt care for the back being like a pickup caus all my stuff got rained on , so in the shop I go , will end up having a workable hatch,no stock lights at the rear corners and some better protection and clearence at the rear here it is stock first mod I really like this look pickup style the mod
  7. the breaks are larger discs work fine on road this thing will be driven on the road after fenders made
  8. brought my old white wheeler back to life a few years ago it stated out as a stock 87 ea82 wagon, it now has a 5" lift up front and a not sure 6+ lift in rear , last weekend took it ouf for the first time in over a year to Walker Valley , in the last few weeks I dropped in a rebuilt 91 EJ 2.2 with Delta Low tork Cams , with a Ford Escort Disty and a Weber Carb, this machine has no computers or sensors anyway heres some pics Also I installed a Nissan 720 4x4 pickup front Diff , axles and Hubs,in the rear, the diff bolts right in with no mods to car mounts or driveline, I had to cut off the bearing end of the stock soobbie swingarm and weld up mounts for the truck knuckle , so now I have 4.38s in the rear, so Im running 30" tires ( wore 31 x 10.50s) on the front and 33" tires on the rear , also the diffs welded up so now I have a stronger rear axle set up and unlocking rear hubs for onroad use I really like the feel and nimbleness of the Subaru car, I just got tired of having the stock rear axles and hollow stub shafts break, I also like the mid car ground clearence with no extra tranfercase or tranny, this combination is Awesome, good power even with the stock wimpy gears from a stock EA82 3.9 Dualrange , the EJ with the Delta cams is the ticket, this car has come a long way since I first built it, way more power, less weight and now for the first time a strong rear axle and 33s are nice Future plans: fenders made out of small tubing and sheet metal, rollbar. side sliders replace all 4 doors with straight ones, add rectangular tubing on doors to act as tree sliders 5000 ATV winch long range fiberglass kit of nose and tail
  9. Loyale (ea82) and legacy are 2 different animals, the lagacy strut will be your limiting factor, get a set of OUTBACK struts which will allow 27-28" tire, non-OUTBACK will not allow for much bigger then stock,
  10. good to meet ya, come anytime, we always need a camera guy and theres always a extra seat
  11. good to get the 5 door coupe out again I really like the power with the delta lowend power Cams,
  12. Jeff email me your phone and ill call you up at walker so we can hook up, looks like 1200 for me
  13. need to replace engine in my wheeler (white 5 door coupe) , need help this week to hit walker valley this saturday , Im in bellingham , you got a evening to help out come on over, can pay with parts, I have evenings and friday open,

  15. Ken I need a set of EJ22 Offroad tourqe cams, Have cores ready to ship, need asap thanks Scott
  16. I may if we could meet up there sometime around 12-1
  17. Mick Ive ran welded DD over the last few years , also ran it fully loaded over the pass to the Show, never was a issue , this is on a EA82 , tight turning with a load like in a parking lot was the only concern, if your running a empty car with just you and your lunch box its not a issue, my present DD is open and Ill leave it that way as its not my trail rig,
  18. I have a stock EA82 2WD tranny I would trade for all the 4WD stuff you remove , Im 1-1/2hrs away
