Re: Warning-Power steering pump bracket FAILURE
I doubt very much that Subaru engineers had a discussion where they analyzed the lifespan of the bracket and after finding it to be ~30 years said "Oh crap, that's totally unacceptable. Let's quietly...

Re: Lsvx-t
What are the fittings you used for the steering rack? My lines are all corroded to hell and if I can replace them with -AN's that would be pretty sweet.
