Oh, man. Superu - that's EXACTLY what I've been dreaming of for my '00! That's amazing. I love all the rad protection. Would you mind shooting me some specs on that thing? Mine will be slightly different, but...if you don't mind me copying your design a little bit, I want that!

 

 

quoting TheLoyale's previous link: http://www.oregonoffroadsubaruclub.org/mudrat_index.html)

It's a Mudrat Design and Fabrications bumper. This was [i think] the 3rd or 5th bumper built and fitted on a car and also the first fitted on a sedan, back in 04?

 

It's not my design to copy.

For further protection and customization, I had the lower bar added later. You'll want to contact John, the mastermind behind this "Mudrat Baja" bumper.

(called Baja since it made its debut on the Rallitek black Baja)

 

Sorry this pic is SOOO huge, but scroll around and also check the above link

I wonder how that auto trans got overheated LOL :) looks like you did work her a little hard

 

Actually this didn't weigh much. It was all the cut wood stacked in the back going up probably something like a 20% grade that killed it! :-\ She just would move.

as above, last week switched to snow tires, but what i didnt say was that i saw cords on the old summer tire, inner left front, all others were looking good.

 

So, went over to see if dad could get out his alignment rack.

first off, toe looked about .4 negative or so

right tire had -.8 camber

left tire had -1.8 camber

spec says 0 to -.75 give or take .o2

 

decided to only adjust front left got it to about 0

decided to leave the right side as it was, since the tire on the side had shown normal wear.

 

back over the toe machine. perfect dead on to 0

 

going to check tires soon and often for any wear

-need to go get tires balanced, or re-attempt the bubble balancer.

 

oh, changed oil in the SS also.

quote from TheLoyale,

 

2" Convex Mirror. $1.97 at Wal-mart.

end quote...

 

The '85 BRAT has some rectangular ones on the side mirrors, from a PO.

I hates them....... Right in the spot I want to look in to see where I'm backing into. Been better in the upper inside corner in my opinion.

I changed my O2 sensor today, my fuel mileage was declining and turns out my O2 was lazy. so I put on a new one. bought some truck bed coating to do my mirrors, but ran out of DAYLIGHT AT 6:30!!!! grrrr I hate this "daylight savings" crap.
