ah righto. I thought you were referring to the spring hitting the strut tower as that was the issue I was having. As you say, the different spring probably isn't going to help you in this instance. I don't know if the impreza struts would have a smaller spring seat but my guess would be they are the...

"my current issue is the front liberty struts that are striking on the inside of the strut tower. Did you have this issue?" I had this issue with my vortex. I'm also running 5 stud and liberty gx front struts. However I am using early wrx springs and top hats. They taper at the top and don't hit on ...

The CTV auto in the GEN5 Outback is actually quite good. I ended up with the 6 speed, but test drove lots with the CVT and would have been happy with it if the car was right.

Ok so pull the diff centre out, and the ring gear off, made it so much easier. Don't think its going to move now... http://imageshack.us/a/img132/9207/dsc0002copyt.jpg We decided too much weld couldn't be a bad thing. Overkill is your friend :D http://imageshack.us/a/img28/1821/dsc0017copya.jpg

ok sounds good. I think i'll take the diff centre out. If you take the side plates off I assume you need to undo the bolt inside the stub aswell. This looks like a torx head,which I don't have. An 8mm fits over it ok but I don't know if I trust it... Has anyone undone it like this or should I find t...

welding rear diff

Ok so I'm planning on welding my rear diff this weekend for my L series bush basher. I've got it out of the car, pulled apart and all cleaned up reading for welding. Can anyone tell me how the stub axle seals hold up under the heat of welding? I have done a bit of reading on here about welded diffs ...

just a query with the welded diff. Can you still turn tight corners ok offroad? I'm building up an L series wagon to keep down at the shack. Its not registered so never going on the road. But there are a few quite tight corners. Its mainly for towing the tinny down to and around on the beach. Should...

I mate of mine was selling his EA81 twin carb set and it got me thinking... I had an old EA82 motor lying around so whipped the inlet manifold off to see if they were the same. Turns out they are, so I bolted the whole EA81 twin carb manifold onto my EA82, a few minor wiring and fuel mods but nothin...

yep. center diff lock.

They were never an option on the AUS delivered L series. Only available as an import.

Mine (factory dual range awd) came from a L Series coupe in New Zealand.
