1995 rear hub interchange?

Featured Replies

Fairly sure the right rear hub on my 95 Legacy is on its way out. Just wondering  what years/models will interchange. Attempted a rear hub bearing years ago and said never again. Plan is to just replace the entire assembly. TIA.

Check www.car-part.com for interchanges.  Depends on FWD, AWD with or without ABS.

 

Difficulty is getting the lateral link bolt out.  I just did two rears on my '03 Forester and ended up having to cut the lateral link bolt and burn out the lower bushings.

 

Probably want to have a new lateral link bolt, nut and washers on hand as well as two new lower lateral link bushings.

I actually ended up buying new knuckles, bearing, brake backing plate, Lateral Link Bolt, Nut, washers and lower lateral link bushings from Subaru Dealer, seals and hub from Rock Auto and assembled the new parts and installed that.  The removed knuckles were damaged when cutting the lateral link bolt out with a cutting wheel.

 

I would not want to try and take a rear one out from a pull and pay yard.

PM sent and thanks for the response/advice. Leaning toward doing the bearing replacement. Dreading the thought. What did the new knuckle cost?

I got it for my son who works at the dealers price (cost + 10%).  The list price was about $220.  Some online Subaru dealers do give discounted prices.  Check www.opposedforces.com/parts to get the part number for your car then search google for that part number.  Should give you some options.
