... and i'll make the same confession i made last time i posted that photo,
It's not my car, it's the job i started to copy when i did mine.
Mine only has one bolt on each side
Was about the only thing on the poor old Brumby i never had any trouble with!

Is the extension for a Power steer car?
I thought they were different, don't know how different though.

All the info i have says Foerster and Outback are 48, while Impreza and Liberty are 55.
If you could find some 40ish offset wheels it should help.

What year model Forester struts do you use to fit 215/70/16 tires on, I am assuming the SF5 97 ones should be the correct ones? These just use with the Impreza springs and top hats, at the moment the car has the V2 sti damper adjustable struts in it with some height adjustable top hats, I am wonder...

We have companys down hear who locate parts in Japan, buy them and ship them to you.
I reckon your best bet would be to find someone in the states doing that.
Mostly used for JDM performance parts, so check websites/magazines etc.

What dissapoints me most(yes more than the styling!) is that with Toyota's experence with mid engine rear drive, and Subaru's engine - gearbox package, they couldn't build a true sports car.

Is she even Uglier?

does this http://www.possumbourne.co.nz/images/products/Center-Diff-locking-tube1.jpg convert an awd gearbox into fwd, rwd and 4wd? No, It converts an awd gearbox into fwd, rwd OR 4wd. It's not selectable, you install the part for which configuration you want. or ... i've seen guys just installing ...

The first female diff was the VLSD in the Gen1 Ser1 Lib, they had stub axels held in by circlips, which allowed them to work with standard early type driveshafts. http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee236/d_a_z_a_w/Legacy_Parts_Catalog_p356.gif http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee236/d_a_z_a_w/Legac...

Ea82 points dizzy's are everywhere over here, cheap as.
Is chch short for Christchurch?

The 215/70/16 is slightly larger than the 215/75/15 Yarney and I run (27.9" v 27.7") Yarney has scrubbing on full lock that he's not completely happy about, but that's with Lib offset wheels. It MAY be alright on the Forester rims? The 215/65/16 is 27.0" and should be a safe size, but I've not actul...

Very interested Brett,
To fit SG Forester.

Suby motors do have a reputation for air locks. There was a stink some years ago, some people had cooked their motors and tried to get Subaru to pay for it. I had a little trouble with the Lib at one stage, ended up parking slightly nose up, filling and running it for a bit, then shutting it down, l...

OUCH!
I've had two Ej racks with bad rack ends,
$125 for a jap import.
But at least you know yours is as new and you'll never have to look at it again.
Daza.

Reckon it's the rack end, get a low k rack from an Improter.

I couldn't drive all those thousands of kilometers there and back on the road knowing i'd bypassed all of that.
Daza.

I wonder if the two faults are related, is the hopping oil on the clutch?
Daza.

There aren't many fuses in a Brumby, could be one fuse for all that?
Or no/insufficient body earth?
