i have a 1984 subaru gl wagon and its my favorite car in the world!!! has 250,000 miles on it and its runing strong and smooth still with all stock nothing replaced. exept regular maintenance stuff. probally at least get another 100 out of it before it even needs work.
what year is this? looks just like my wagon even the same color so im guessing its a 1984 also? and i was reading ur other comments about working on the car by urself, i went and got my tires changed before by a "Profesional" but they jacked the car up in the wrong spot and broke under the doors and it started to rust there now. so i dont even let shops do my tires or anything i just bring my rims lmao.
yeah this is an 84, and recently we were looking into an 83 wagon with the same color actually, and yeah shops rip you off, my sister took her stealth to a so called "pro" to get a tire rotation and he put the lug nuts on too tight and about a mile down the road 2 studs pop off the rotor...
Funny you said that. I had an EA82 in my old GL 4X4 wagon from 1982. It was awesome. I had the original 4-speed, but it was lifted with mini-boggers, bully-bar in the front, the third (middle) headlight from the factory, and it was ugly (aka awesome) brownish-gold.
yeah we had a gl 4x4 hatch before, the previous owner had the replace the front wheel bearings and they didnt push them in like your supposed to, they hammered them in, so new bearings went bad after about 4k miles, its a shame really what ignorant people do when they work on a car
sad

Yeah dude it was great having that beast. Unfortunate circumstances forced me to sell, but I'm looking into a GL 4X4 hatch pretty soon.

Yeah I don't even take my rigs to a shop for an oil change. I work on my cars completely by my damn self, so I know it's done right.
hometoker420 3 years ago
same here, never know when a shop might screw you over or something.
mopar43v3r 3 years ago
Yeah dude, they'll do what they can to make a buck.
