Matty B Posted August 1, 2006 Author Share Posted August 1, 2006 How much modding had to happen to get the Liberty seats in, and is there still enough head room? They were in it when I bought her, I am 5'10" and I have 2" clearance to the roof. They need an adapter rail to be fabricated to make it all line up. No biggie from what I can see.

Johnnyboy Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 Hey matty, how easy was that dashboard swap? i have the standard one in my brumby currently, but i have two of the sporty ones with the built in tacho, was it mainly a matter of plug and play?

Matty B Posted August 2, 2006 Author Share Posted August 2, 2006 There are a few years with differences, mine was a plug and play swap. Came from a coupe, the touring wagoon ones work as well. You have to be a little lucky with year combinations. Also a oil pressure sender is required, and a unit to give intermittant on your wipers. Go for it.

Johnnyboy Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 Ok, sounds good so far, i have a 1983 Brumby and the dashboards are out of 1983 coupes.. so there is a good chance it'll work well. I guess thats my next project on the brumby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phizinza Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 Those wheels look phat man (lol, I used the word 'phat') I am planning a little for my EA81, might be similar setup as yours Lol, I got my ute with a dash like that in it. The guy who put it in said it was a pain in the .... and he would never think about doing it again. But I like having a tach, and for some reason my speedo reads almost correct with the 215/60R15's on it... ? Lol, you even kept the jack under the hood, how Subaru I guess you have the AWD low range box? Use the low much at all with those wheels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matty B Posted August 2, 2006 Author Share Posted August 2, 2006 I can pull away from the lights in 3rd gear, Have not touched low range in 4 months. A local wizard by the name of Will did my dash swap- in a morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matty B Posted August 2, 2006 Author Share Posted August 2, 2006 for some reason my speedo reads almost correct with the 215/60R15's on it... ? I know, its perfectly coincidental but fate has dealt us a cool hand. My speedo is 98% accurate (checked by radar gun and GPS). Close enough for me.

LPGsuperchargedBrumby Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 does your reg have a small hose going to it that comes from manifold vaccuum i.e under the throttle body? cos if it doesn't and only has a wire from the gas safety relay its electronic, nearly all the lovato regulators i've seen are electronic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matty B Posted August 3, 2006 Author Share Posted August 3, 2006 No vacuum hose on mine LP, there is the safety relay and wire though. That must make it electronic then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
