Hi guys, I'm looking for a couple parts for my 91 Legacy. I know I need a rear axle as well as some CV Joints...
Anyone parting out anywhere near Seattle?

Buy rebuilt parts...
The CV joints are in the prop shafts (half shafts, half axles). If you have AWD (4WD) then you have 4 of these and no other axles. Rebuilds are about $40 or $50 each at Auto Zone or Advanced etc. after you turn in the dead ones. If you've done it before the job takes 45 minutes per axle, but 3 times that the first time. Its too much work to play around with junkyard parts.
you may not start out doing your own work but you will learn and start soon after. subaru are fun to drive, quick if you have a stick, turbo or a newer model. from what I am reading the 2.5 needs looking after for longer life. look around the site a little and you will read about a couple of yards out your way. I'm in new york yet I have read about 2 good ones if what is said is ture. read around and you will find a few names. good hunting, good learning and be well.

Ok, you have AWD. If you need rear half-shafts, get them from autozone for like $55 for lifetime warranty ones. It takes about 45 minutes to do one.
As for badges and driver's side visor: Blackbart has a lot of that stuff, but you may need to do a junkyard run.
