November 15, 20205 yr Looking for a friend who has a 2007 Subaru that need rear wheel bearings, I came across the replaceable unit, 2010+ Is it possible to get a newer unit and retro fit it to an earlier Subaru? If you went to the yard and pulled a 2010+ rear hub, could it be bolted in to an earlier Subaru? Thanks, Larry
November 15, 20205 yr Depends. 2005+ Legacy rear bearings are bolt-in. Impreza did not get any bolt-in bearings front or rear till 2008. I couldn't tell you what will interchange without model information and in any case it's easy to lookup the parts on parts.subaru.com and check the interchange.
