Ok I'm picking up a 91 turbo sedan and from what I understand the car won't distribute power to wheels. I figured it was transfer case am I wrong? How much of a pain is it to swap a new trans in? or how complicating is the 5spd swap? Fill me in thanks

Look for a tranny filter and replace it as it might be clogged, it should be external and check to see if there is transmission fluid.

Yeah, if it is infact a turbo legacy, good luck finding a transmission. may want to source a wrx tranny and search all the info on the wrx transmission swaps

Yep it a 1991 subaru legacy turbo auto. I figured it would be a pain in the arse to find a trans which has kinda shifted motivation on this project.
I may just look into the wrx trans but also would like to avoid alotta work due to needing a daily driver. I was hit in my outback last fri. And it was totaled. Got slammed by a trailblazer goin 50mph. DAMMit it although still drove haha
