ohh crap i thought i typed that in there...NEED MORE COFFEEEEEEEEEEE.

 

Anyways its a 84 GL. found them on rock auto for 36 shipped...wont be ordering till prob next week...also need to figure out why the tires are worn on inside edge.

Inside edge wear could be caused by the bad bearings.

ok, i just pulled both drums off and looked at the bearings.

Pass side shaft is loose, as in i can pull the outside bearing off by hand with ease and can move the shaft up down left right.

Driver side wont come off as easy, haven't pried on it or nothing and shaft doesn't move up down side to side.

 

Seem like bearings?

Also if a bearing fails it could lock up right?

Pass side tire had a few flat spots on it (Down to the cords) going from the outside edge of the tire to the front inside edge.

forgot that part to? whats wrong with me today!:grin:

 

its 1984 Subaru GL EA-81 4speed DR 4wd :lol:

Of course the bearings will be loose if you pull the drum off - that's what holds them in there tight :rolleyes:.

 

How do you know they are bad?
