baccaruda Posted August 18, 2004 Author Share Posted August 18, 2004 they do at all the pick N pulls here. i should check spaldings first i guess (that's what happens when i post late at night) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorganM Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 Rear Calipers: 1985 Subaru GL $79 each $69 core charge Rear Soft Lines: $15 each They can also do any custom softlines you want. I had some 2' ones made with the Subaru metric fittings I needed. Local brake warehouse here: www.brakeplace.com Only problem I had was they dont stock backing plates which I needed for converting my drums. Ended up going to a junkyard and grabing the calipers, rotors/hubs and backing plates. That sucks your local yards cut the lines. Lazy sons of goats! Here they punch holes in the oil pans and tranny pans cuz they are too lazy to unscrew the plugs to drain the fluids! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edrach Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 Local PAPs in Seattle area and Tacoma don't cut the brake lines. Every set I've pulled has come with the original lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 Around here they cut the y-pipes up to remove the cat . If I go to the farther out yards in the country, I can find y-pipes that are complete. Still a pain if I need one. No punctureing of pans here - that's just wrong. They do remove the gas tank and put it in the trunk after draining it. GD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GD Same here The EPA says its illegal to sell used cats so most yards cut them out or wont sell them. IIts harder to find a Y pipe around here than it is a turbo! That's really why I HAD to go with custom exhuast for so long. Couldnt get a used one and a "new" one was $200-$400. Finally got ahold of an EA81 Y pipeand spacers for my EA82 SPFI.

mcbrat Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 they do absolutely zero with the cars in the yard here, until they crush them, then they drain 'em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
