  • Today I swap out the old cross member, install new STi steering rack, new Advanced clutch/flywheel and remove wire harness. There will be a more detailed wire harness install video offered on iWire’s TH-cam that I’ll add the link below for when it’s made available.
    (Note iWire does not do Swaps)

    Not sure what Bucky did to deserve this, but someone in the YT world seems to be doing one hell of a job making sure as little people as possible see his videos. Keep it up Bucky, we're watching even if they're watching you too.

    So back in ‘90 friends and I stayed with a friends uncle on el Camino royal? Hit up a badass skate shop, met cool peeps and thought we were at Buckys house on his mini ramp. This was around the Ray Barbie Powell peralta time. Got run the fuck off the China Banks, Turns out we were at Danny Ways house. For real. And the empty fountain at Golden Gate Park from the H-Street video was our last spot before we went home to Illinois. Goddamn the 90’s were Cool! Love ya buck.

    Nice job Bucky!
    If you leave the p/s, the alt, and the a/c connected and remove the belts and lay the p/s to the pass side and the alt and a/c comp to the driver side. I was shown this 20 years ago by a Subaru Senior Master and have just found it easier when pulling the engine to do a swap or for repairs. You can drain the pump & res off the engine, then change to the wrx pump & res too.

    It seems like no one uses a torque wrench anymore.
    Anyway when doing the final tightening with rubber suspension bushings make sure the control arm/ lateral links are at ride height. Otherwise the bushing will tear from too much twist during full compression.

    • @buckyeah3382
      @buckyeah3382  4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Unfortunately showing all the torque wrenching/info would have added a few minutes to the edit. We did it though where it’s called for.
      My suspension is getting properly done as we mentioned but yeah you are correct.

    So, while looking at my swap, and the shims for the control arms. My logic says that if you put the washers on the Rear of the arm instead of front and back, it should get you a little bit better caster angle. Because you are essentially pushing the a arms towards the front of the car

    I'm glad to see the use of washers on the control arms -- I was well into the rabbit hole of researching which (available) control arms would fit.
    Would you clarify the reason for the WRX throttle cable? Simply longer?
    Why the new pivot ball with the new clutch fork? I get the old fork wearing out, but the pivot?
    Thanks for doing this. You rock. 😎

    • @buckyeah3382
      @buckyeah3382  4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Yes the WRX throttle cable is longer but can modify older as stated in video to work and pivot ball should be changed due to it wearing on fork.
