    possibly, I'm going to try to make a JY/UPull run tomorrow, if I find what I'm looking for (Y-pipe, rear discs, couple other things...) I'll be putting them on in my (sort-of) heated garage Monday morning/day. real informal, I'll post up what I find, and what I'm planning tomorrow, y'all are invited!

    yea, well, it was an unsuccessful day, found a GL-10 turbo! but it was FWD, Found a 4WD GL, couldn't get the axle nuts loose (broke a 1/2" drive craftsman ratchet }:), stopped at sears), anyway, bought a few trim pieces, and a dome light, put that stuff in tonight, but I need to change the oil tomorrow, probably will do it around noon, y'all still invited, though it won't be very interesting.

    You're pretty dedicated to hang out at the junk yard this time of the year. Any Impreza's on the lot? :p I need a horn and a hood latch lever.

    I got stripped splines on one rear hub, a bad alternater (not anymore :D) and a number of other failing electricals in the car, you bet I'm hanging out at the Yard, well, only UPull, but I'm going to have to make another trip on Thursday, I need a hub, bad. Anyway, no imprezas (not that I noticed anyway), a bunch of legacys, an XT6, and 2 GL's, but I can look for ya when we go on Thursday.

    Anyway, looks like I might be doing a block heater too, and I'm going to try to fix my exhaust "leak"

    If anyone is out on the west side and wants to stop in, give me a ring @ , it's my parents house, so ask for Matt or chux, either way, they know, and if you don't get an answer, leave a message, I may be screening, or at Napa

    What's the # ?_?

    Did you get a Y pipe to fix that exhuast? Or did you have another idea? Welder on hand?

    When are you gonna crank in that stock Fuji lift? :D You saw Tony's... it helps !_!

    I took out the number once I got up here to duluth, and no, I haven't gotten a new Y-pipe yet, tried using a piece of flex pipe that was on the plow truck, but I just got a bloody wound on my hand and a few more pounds of steel dangling from my car. But once I find some rear discs, and my dad get's the furnace fixed out there, I'll be cranking down those struts, and probably doing the accord rear spring thingy.

    Set a day and time man! I'll try to make it out :mrgreen:

    I know a junkyard you could prolly get a Y pipe from. And a set of rear discs. We should do a run out to Sommerset Slavage and get that stuff. Best junkyard around! They let you offroad inside the yard :D and prices are negotiable ;)

    Well, we're going to try French Lake and Annandale tomorrow (more towards our side of town), and if we still come up empty-handed, then we'll try sommerset! Maybe Friday? or it might have to wait until after Xmas.

    yep, South-Side UPull had an ~'87 D/R wagon with a 3.9 rear diff, looked good, and out torqued our craftsman ratchet (sorry if it's broke :p)

    oh sry i forgot ... i guess it doesnt really matter as long as its a rear 3.9 ring and pinion gear. Is there a diff between say a 2000 impreza ring and pinion gear and an 86 d/r?

    don't know about the difference, don't think there is one, since the 3.7 LSD donor can be a legacy, but I don't know.

    And we broke the wrench on the axle nut, as I was looking for a hub/drum

    Think I'm gonna pass on the junkyard trip. Tony needs some help moving out of his current house. Prolly could use my wagon to load up with stuff !_!

    notfastenough: You are coming to the new years event this weekend right? Should be a good turn out there for that event.
