95Outback

Well, Pull a part was a bit of a let-down. Most of the cars where really picked over. I did manage to fix the dome lights, rear view mirror, center console cover, and some carpet padding for the back. I really wanted to get the tail-light, rear bumper, and cup-holder today - oh well guess I'll keep checking around. Yes, I am going to put the bearings at the top of the list. Honestly I have no idea what you mean by getting the hub pressed out....I'm just planning to get the bearings, retainer things, bearing grease, and go at it. Also I got the car really cleaned up today - fully detailed and waxed! Now the dents are all shiny

Tomorrow I'm going to Pull A Part to try to find the following replacement items: Horn, cup holder, taillight, fog lights, Shift nob boot and plastic surround, clutch pedal cover, dome light covers, cargo cover, cargo area carpet, liftgate liner, center console, weather stripping, Rear bumper cover, Front bumper cover, clutch pedal cover, front seat-belt connectors Also on the list of replacement parts over the next couple weeks: rear wheel bearings (very loud right now!),4 rotors, fuel sending unit, shifter bushings and joint (flops all over), find the small oil leak, radio and 4 new speakers, roof-rack for my kayaks and mountain bikes. I also have to unstick the heater controls I don't know much about mechanicing, but looking forward to learning and figuring it out. I have a good repair manual and I think I have found a goldmine on this website. I figure after I fix all this I should be looking and driving good - and maybe my wife won't be too embarrassed to ride with me.

Hey, I really like the look of the 1996 Outback wagon Front bumper Vs. my '95 bumper. It seems a little bit more aggressive and has the larger fog lights with the screens over them. Does anyone know if the '96 bumper is swappable with the '95 bumper? Thanks!

Hi, Happy to find this forum. I just got my 1995 Subaru last week and pretty excited out it. I am not a mechanic by any means, but I better get to learning b/c my car needs some big time work. It's in good shape, drivable, and is now my commuter car, but it does need some work. It's a cool little '95 Outback Wagon and replacing my 2004 Nissan Pathfinder 4WD. I will welcome all suggestions and recommendations for fixing up my ride! - Chris
