Does anyone know the gear ratio for my 1990 Legacy wagon with the 4EAT and AWD? If not where can I find it?

I have a guy who wants to buy it but needs to know this ASAP.

Totally confirmable, but if you're AWD, just dust off your rear diff, there's a plate that tells you what it is.
The 90-94 4EATS should have been 4.11, IIRC.

Or you can look it up here at this wonderful website Gator pointed out to me:

http://www.rallispec.com/Transmission%20chart.htm

Has (pretty much) every transmission ever produced by Subaru. The rear diff on my car ('98 GT) doesnt have a plate (bizzare?!) so luckily I was able to check it out on this before I bought a 3.9 ratio LSD....that could've been bad! Say good bye to the center diff...

I'll post this link in the literature section for future reference! Thumbs up to GGT!


*edit* --- now its just too bad they don't have it listed. If you don't have the plate on your diff, pop your hood and look at the large Vin plate on the drivers side near the strut top mount, it should have your transmission code, copy that down and see if you can match it up to any of the others (Impreza's and the like, you may have the same transmission as an older one).
