What is that? 6mm steel? Because that wont be weak as anything. People snatch off bits of 6mm plate in the bigger 4wd's. ideally they Bolt the recovery hooks to 6mm chassis rails anyway. I suspect youll pull the captive nuts out of the body before doing any damage to the SJR Kit. $700 is farking rid...

Anyone know the Specs on the HD compared to a SD clutch for the L anyway ?

L's and MY's are a cable operated clutch yes. but they are infact a Push clutch. they don't get designated by how the fork gets moved, like your thinking. Move the pedal out first then in ?

nothing beats experience in our job mate.

sometimes with DOHC's you can get some Grips and clamp the Cam pulleys together before taking the old belt off, especially helpful when doing them solo.

i managed to mix and match tie rods off another Subaru but they had to go into my EJ rack which requires different ends to an MY rack in the first place.

Lseries axles with either an MY Outer CV put on, or installing the Lseries hubs and bigger brakes with them.

also the Radius Rods.

Diff hanger should be straight.

I did tell you matt when we had this problem ages ago to drill a new hole into the side of the thermostat.

Cutting the jiggler out will do the exact same thing to. (after all thats where all the air was sitting last time)
