Humble Nuto 53 Posted May 15, 2004 Share Posted May 15, 2004 for the 2 part driveshaft on your ea82? did the 2wd to 4wd parts swap, but dont like the ideas i have to make a bearing mount short of going to the junkyard to get the stock sheet metal, what have you done to mount that thing and how much stress does it need to handle?

TimHansen Posted May 15, 2004 Share Posted May 15, 2004 When "Catch This Fox" comes out, you can actually watch Miles Fox weld one up for Trashwagon 5 (which runs a complete EA82 drivetrain...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calebz Posted May 15, 2004 Share Posted May 15, 2004 Some have drilled holes in the floor and used long bolts with big washers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moosens Posted May 15, 2004 Share Posted May 15, 2004 Up here the rust is killing these mounting plates(in the flooring) Subaru used.If you're in the rust zone-I forgot to look-then use something that'll last and coat it with tar or something.

archemitis Posted May 15, 2004 Share Posted May 15, 2004 morganm has his welded into rust, by yours truly. it caught on fire when the rust gave way, but it works nice. we welded it in upside down to make up for the lift. and we just got back from some pretty big bounces, and it held fine. his car is rusted to crap. just build it up, or weld in a plate then weld to it. but i say weld it!
