ej22 motor with 4 speed auto fulltime 4wd tranny. I know about switching from 4wd to front wheel drive, but can I mess with the wiring to make it rwd? Kyle B....
No need to mess with the wiring... just set it up for FWD, then put the shifter in "R", and drive using the rear view mirror... makes taking curves a whole new...
heheheh thats about it. These cars are designed to be FWD, with on demand RWD (controlled by a puter or the center diff). The only way to make them rwd is to...
A correction, these cars are *not* designed to be FWD with RWD assist. The 4EAT (automatic transmission) is designed that way. My 5MT Impreza is 50/50 as...
I must be missing something... I thought Kyle said his scoobaru had an automatic tranny... I still say give that rear-view mirror setup a test drive... ;-> ......
We had somone on another board remove the front axles and weld the AWD clutch pack. It worked well for him, but thats the only way it can be done on an...
I knew a fellow once who had an old scoob Brat... front diff just flat wore out it that little pup... the only way it would go was by engaging the 4WD, which...
hehehehehe My 1987 GL (loved that car) had a D/R 4wd. Towards the end of its life (frame rust) it kept destroying front axles. i needed it for a few more ...
Yep... no those are the stories about the *real* scoobadoo's... hehe... yea buddy... that's the real stuff... my first scooby was a 1977 little rust bucket...
A little off topic, but I was walking through a hack rally (motorcycles with side cars for those not familiar with the term). I was new to the sport, but...
Was that a factory setup... or something someone improvised? ... From: "Glen Farney" <glen.farney@...> To: <Subaru-Tech@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Thursday,...
beware of corrections. The Automatics are designed to be mechanically fwd with a computer controled clutchpack connecting the rear to the front. The clutch...
OOPS i'll correct myself, i meant in times of slip. Like any differential, power goes equally to all wheels when they have 100% traction ... [Non-text portions...
maybe I'll get an old gl for a couple bills and tinker with it a bit. the fwd gl wagons are good at drifting using nothing but good ol speed and gravity, no...
I've had arguements with people about this before, obviously I knew there was a lot more to it considering there is no option to take it out of fwd. in fact my...
Home made all the way. Side cars are usually not really engineered for the bike they are on, lots of home brew stuff, part of what makes it interesting to look...
Hello, The wife unit was driving home from work this morning wen she heard the old seals sucking air, then FWAPP, FWAPP, FWAPP shap, snik, bonk, ting, wikki,...
It is possible that the dipstick got launched (when was the last time the pcv was changed). The dipstick could have gotten caughts in the belts and then the...
hi, I just recently had to have my windshield replaced. I have no leaks or air leaking but im concerned about rust forming in the pinch weld where the old WS...
check out POR-15 products, used the stuff on my transam restoration, i think they are on the web as POR-15.com(or something), the stuff works. joeynenj...
When you go from a 16 x 6.5 wheel to a 16 x 7.0, the tire makes more contact to the road because the wheel increases the footprint. Is there a down side to...
It does NOT change the foot print, but it does change the profile of the sidewalls some. The tread width does not change, so there is really no advantage to...
At 02:29 AM 5/8/2007 +0000, tinycamera1 your nimble fingers typed... ... All things being equal (weight, bolt pattern, offset and such) none I can think of. I...
Everything is a tradeoff In theory these are the rules of thumb, but they may not be 100% true all the time. These dont apply to snow tires or off road tires: ...
"It does NOT change the foot print" That depends on whether he is buying new tires or not, which is more of less what you ended up saying. But a wider rim...
Oh, of course, if the wider wheels is to fit wider tires, then it makes perfect sense to get the best fit rim for the tire. I was once told (and somewhat...
I am attempting to replace the head gaskets on my 1999 subaru outback legacy. I can't get the crankshaft pulley bolt off. Does the bolt turn right (clockwise)...
I want to keep the tire size the same in case I have a flat and use the same size spare. I'm changing the Yokohama junk tires with Bridgetstone Potenza G009,...
