He's down Eola south of Ogden. I doubt he will show tonight. Might see Derek or Brian later.

Yup told you trans mounts are in and out, which are very easy. Motor mounts will take an hour of labor to lift the engine, unbolt the stock and swap to aftermarket. Are you going with solid motor mounts?

No reason to swap in aftermarket engine mounts honestly, yours are probably fine. Do some research if you are going with poly if they collapse after a while because that's a common issue with heat getting to them and also an imbalance in torque to one side. If you are going solid then I say swap em out.

Why not find a friend with a hoist and give him a case of beer? Subaru may say 2 hours, but I bet its really around 1 for someone who knows their way around EJ's/Has any mechanical experience.

If my friend just didn't bum the hoist I had in the garage I would help you out.

I was going to go for the Group N trams and motor mounts. They also make the rear shifter bushing but I was thinking something like kartboy for front an rear shifter bushings.

So would it be worth doing the shifter bushing and trans and pitch stop now without the engine since its out?

So who is going to the Subaru challenge next month? I was thinking about going the night before, possible signing up for the plant tour and not having to get up super early on the sat to drive down there.

Remember they are 1 hour ahead of us and it starts at like 9 eastern.
