96 Impreza OB, 4EAT Xfer Clutch hub has notches. How to get a good one?


Recommended Posts

Hi All,

 

This '96 Impreza OB had had some binding in the AWD for a while. I got around to investigating and got the back of the tranny off to replace the Duty C and the clutch plates, but as feared the damage had already been done to the toothed hub:

This car has 222k miles and I do have a complete 4EAT from a junkyard '97 OBS with 164k on the odometer. (The block and heads from that car are now running great in this car!) But I was hoping to keep that tranny complete as a spare. Any ideas how to acquire a good hub? a used one would be fine. I tried to look up the part number online for that hub with the teeth that engages the inner teeth of the xfer clutch plates, but couldn't find it in the diagrams.

 

On another topic, there are good pictorials online for replacing the clutch plates, but I don't know about yanking on that hub and the substantial gear that it seems to be attached to. Can that just be pulled out without leading to my being unable to push back into place later? (e.g. if I were able to get a new toothed hub and had a trans shop press it onto the gear, or whatever needs to happen.)

 

Thanks!

Bry
