Come Monday the STUbaru is headn to the shop to have the head gasket replaced along with timing belts and water pump...since the motor and tranny are being seperated I'm doin the clutch and flywheel at the same time since my car is approaching 160k (and its a2002)
Anything else I should do while everythings out as prevenitive maintance????? Specifically on the tranny

Replacing the front seal on the tranny is never a bad idea.
