Subaru Sambar specs/ interchange part #'s

I have a different layout for the Exedy clutch kits. This parses down their information into 6 lines:

Code:

                                                     Clutch    Pressure   Clutch
Model              Date Range                         Disk      Plate      Kit
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
KS3,KV3            1990.03 - 1994.09                 FJD002    FJC515-1   FJK004
KS4,KV4            1990.03 - 1994.09                 FJD005U   FJC523U    FJK006
KS3,KV3,KS4,KV4    1990.03 - 1998.05 Supercharged    FJD005U   FJC523U    FJK006
KS3,KV3,KS4,KV4    1994.01 - 1999.12                 FJD021U   DHC553U    FJK005
KS3,KV3,KS4,KV4    1998.06 - 1999.12 Supercharged    FJD021U   DHC553U    FJK005
TT,TV,TW           1999.02 - 2012.04                 FJD021U   DHC553U    FJK005

All of the clutch kits are available on Amazon Japan with international shipping available.

FJK004: https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B00SWY5B28/
FJK005: https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B008N693BA/
FJK006: https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B01BPU4OX2/

The price is reduced slightly during checkout as international orders are tax exempt (and tax is built in to Amazon prices), and the shipping is reasonable. My last order of a FJK006 was ¥17,782 shipped, which worked out to about $163. They use DHL shipping and it showed up in 3 days.

If they are out of stock but allow ordering, they order it from Exedy and it takes about 4-5 days.

 

Nice spreadsheet. Thanks for posting!

 

Wasn't sure if this was already posted, but it wouldn't hurt to make known.
The Radiator Cap for Sambar is the same off a Subaru Justy for similar years.
i.e. 1992 Sambar -1992 Justy. Just something for the parts counter guy to plug in.

 

Addition- '93 KS4 Sambar truck "D" - Mobile 1 Oil Filter M1-108A from Autozone threads in just fine and no leaks thus far after 1 week and about 2 total hours driving time.

 

All Sambars with all versions of the EN07 engine (1990-2012) share the same oil filter as the Justy here in the US. The newest OE part number is 15208KA012, but any filter speced out for the Justy will work perfectly.

 

rkrenicki, I noticed on your spread sheet you use 15w40 oil. Any particular reason? I have had good luck with 10W30 but was curious on your selection.

 

I run an oil pressure meter, and when the engine is fully heated up, I see some awfully low oil pressures at idle when running 10w30. When I bumped up to 15w40, the pressures increased enough that my gauge does not kick the low pressure alarm anymore. This is only when the oil temp is up above 110c.

I used 10w30 for the first 2 years that I have had the truck.. the switch to 15w40 is new for this year, but so far so good.

 

I just switched to 10w40 (from5w30 for winter) and AT205Resealer after a valve gasket replacement, at the recommendation of an old timer mechanic because I was seeing a decent amount of oil "foul" all over the engine. There was never a leak of oil just this really thick oily film that would develop all the valve case. The mechanic recommended 15w40 or 10w40 for spring and summer and the AT205 to try and "freshen" up any rubber gaskets throughout. His thinking on the 15w40 or 10w40 was that it's thick enough to fill in all the crazy small voids that were causing the external fouling. Then the AT205 and thicker oil would kind of bake into the crevices and make a better seal it spots that were difficult to replace or get to. Attached is a picture of the valve cover after about 4 hours of cleaning and it took about another 2 to get it to the point I could paint it (yes I painted it because I saw somebody on the web do it and I was suckered by the fancy looks). So far no noticeable "fouling" (about 10 hours) so either my valve gasket install was good, the 10w40 + AT205, or a combination of both worked. Now I just gotta get the other problem fixed that you all are helping me with on a different thread.

 

Red valve covers make it go faster.

 

soooo shiny!

 

I am new to the mini trucks as well this site, I assume there is no crossover ref for the CV axles? I have a 1992 KS4 I have been setting up for a hunting vehicle, both rear inner boots are ripped up and clicking pretty loud.

 

So, the rear boots can be found here in the US, but the axles themselves cannot. Nobody seems to make an aftermarket version, and the OEM axles are discontinued by Subaru.

You might have some luck by finding a local driveshaft shop who can fabricate some custom shafts for you. Since you are "setting up for a hunting vehicle", I assume you mean lifted? In that case, you might want slightly longer custom axles anyways.

 

Not lifting, it is running 24” tires with no issues, Any chance on taking out axles and cleaning up the inner cv real good and re-greasing/replace boots and have any luck? Or likely the grim has done to much damage?post image

 

Not lifting sir

 

If you are hearing clicking, then I would say that there is already damage inside.. but I suppose cleaning them up and putting new grease is pretty cheap to try. The rear inner boots for the 4WD models can be bought from from the Subaru dealer, and they are about $21 each. The are part number 28023KA010.

 

Thank you sir, I did order a pair of boots, but thinking it may be a waist of time, with that said it’s worth a try I suppose who knows it may quiet it down, mostly hear it in reverse. Thanks again sir. Adam

 

I ordered 2 rear CV axles from Yokahoma motors, think my CV joints on back all pretty bad, made some fender flairs today .

 

You did? They do not list rears on their website, only the fronts.

 

yeah Yokohama only has fronts listed for KS4 and TT2, i didnt see any rears either

 

I sent them my VIN and they make them , 245.00 each plus shipping , can get you the man I talked with if needed

 

Ah, if they are actually custom made, I get that. That is why I had suggested a local driveshaft shop who could have done the same thing here.

Unless, they have found an aftermarket distributor for the rear axles.. in which case I would be curious to know what they are. Can you post a picture of them once they arrive? If there is a brand and/or model number on them.. I would like to find out what they are.

 

Sure will sir

 

Do they have any sort of markings on them? Or were they in any boxes with part numbers or a brand?

 

Got them in! Work great, no noise. free image uploadersimghostbbcode image linkbest image hosting websitefree photo hosting no registration

 

I spoke with yoshi at Yokohama motors ,gave him my VIN, mine is 92 with the pins on the rear end side. 1st one was very hard as I found no YouTube , 2nd took no time , did way more than needed on 1st axle , learned my lesson.

 

Given the green paint that is showing where the black paint chipped off, it looks like they are remanufactured axles. Too bad there is no tell-tale markings saying who did it, but it could have just been someone at Yokohama.

Also, There is nothing on the shipping label that would say what they are. I would take those pictures down, since they have all of your contact information on them.

 

I tried to help, didn’t do what what you needed my apologies , my address listed does not bother me in the slightest.everyone that has ever sent me a piece of mail has it. Have a great day. Thank you for the positive input. Adam

 

So Adam, what was the trick you learned on the second axel?

I’m not too far from you. I’m in VanAlstyne Texas. Too bad Canton doesn’t have Mini truck parts.......
