L series had fwd auto, 4wd auto both tree speeds, then the 4 speed 4EAt AWD which musta been so rare almost unworthy of research

Only Vortex's and the top spec L series GL10 Turbo got the 4EAT with the variable transfer clutch like seen in later EJ auto transmissions

Most MY and L series Subarus came with the 3AT in either FWD or 4WD

The 3AT did not have a variable clutch pack for the 4WD transfer. It was either on or off, controlled by either the push button on the gear selector, or on some models, when the windscreen wipers were on.
Current rides: 2016 Mitsubishi Triton GLS & 2004 Forester X
Ongoing Project/Toy: 1987 RX Turbo EA82T, Speeduino ECU, Coil-pack ignition, 440cc Injectors, KONI adjustale front struts, Hybrid L Series/ Liberty AWD 5sp
Past rides: 92 L series turbo converted wagon, 83 Leone GL Sedan, 2004 Liberty GT Sedan & 2001 Outback
