Scott in Bellingham

I put turnimg breaks on my first red subaru, dont know if it ever helped the locked rearend is way better, if I did it again I would get the smallest cylinders and rework the linkage to get more leverage to stop that spinning tire ,as the time you want to lock the tire is when its spinning with all the power going threw it, also I would use discs on the rear to help also, it was a novel item to have,

Thanks Jeff for the report, glad to see you got a nice camera, so what happened front axle fall apart?

thanks Elves, guess what i felt better today so we were able to go see the family , had a great day I think it was a bad combo of food or something I eat

dont do this

spent most the night running to the bathroom, lots of dry heaves , didnt get much rest, layed in bed most the day, slept on and off , no fun, had many things planned but did none, not sure why Im wrighting this just wanted to share the missery I guess, should get some snow tonight,

heres me

so Brian whats the specs going to be of this fine Mosheene??

90 sedan

heres my Sedan

No we will be in Canada celebrating Christmas with the Fam also I do not have a car that is ready I would like to hit Reiter in a mo or so like we did last year in the snow

Any interest in a group buy for the EJ gen 1 Legacy/ Impreza 4" lift kit ??

UPDATE I have not yet designed these this thread was to see what interest there was

here you go not me Im the red car

all this talk of what works what doesnt its all from a good source, but driving technique is a big part of if you break or not , all the stuff I have broke could have been prevented if the driver (me) had driven differently Ive bent radius rods, destroyed a clutch ,broke a stub shaft on a rock smacking it, lost reverse ,all because of how I drove, Ive watched many videos of machines offroad breaking all sorts of parts and its usually the drivers technique or a systen set up improperly like overextending a cv

driveline 10" CV cups all ea82 , tires not that big

OK this is the specs Stock turbo trans 1st gear no low range 3.54 Bronco 2 first gear ............... ........... 3.96 Bronco 2 transfercase low range ......... 2.48 Subaru rear diffs front and rear .......... 3.90 ................crawl ratio............ .. 135.58 to 1 stock subbie 5 speed with dual range for comparrison 1st gear ........3.54 low range...... 1.6 diffs............. 3.9 crawl ratio.... 22.08 to 1

I like it good Job :headbang:It nice to see some creativity :cool: I think you will too' after i cut the back off my wagon the front end tends to stay on the ground more and with the welded diff you will have more traction as the rear will rock from tire to tire , with the lighter weight that ea81 and a weber will be just fine , lets see some offroad pics

Heres my car a built 1-1/2 years ago, In starting to work on it again, so I thought I would start a thread, heres the specs, 87 Turbo wagon 118,000 miles EJ 2.2 EFI stock Subaru 5 speed Bronco 2 4 speed with transfercase 3.90 welded rear diff 3.90 open front diff 31 x10.50 tires body shortned 20" just put in the EJ still have to wire it up plan on taking it to Walker next time out as the white car is brocken,

The best one would be the one that ends on your own car, all the lifts I have seen are comparable, on the rear I used to supply 4 seperate blocks now I have 2 which give more diaganal support, also on the rear diff I use a plate that drops just the diff where others drop the Mustache bar pictured is a 4" EA81 lift from my site www.sjrlift.com

yes see pic

not a problem all except mine were open diffs Walker trails seem to have alot of rock you would be fine would be great to have you

I still want to do this looking for some help building the fiberglass molds and parts,I have the skills just need a helper , if someone will help me they can have some free parts to modify your car, this is kind of what it will look like

Bruce good to see you here
