Where to buy the parts ( head gasket)

[osfanrich]

Ok, it is the headgaskets that are bad on my 99 SUS.

Now, should I go to the dealer, or is there a reliable OEM supplier on line?

I suppose I should not go to a regular parts house and get a Fel-pro gasket set.

The board has recommended Liberty Subaru in NJ a lot over the years, especially for East coast residents. I bought my parts there and they were all correct, genuine Subaru parts in stock and shipped quickly. The discount and no sales tax more than makes up for the shipping cost. It is a Subaru dealer and they are familiar with what's needed for a given job when you call. You want to use only the latest Subaru head gasket for this work, it's been discussed in a lot of other threads. Where are you located in Eastern PA?

I'm in Allentown.

Becker wants $310.00 for the set up.

Hey, cool!

Thanks.

 

Oh, and Steve Moyer quoted $250.00... not too bad.

Back in 2003, My kid just did a replacement of both head gaskets. He did the timing belt spark plugs and oil pump stuff a year before, so that work isn’t figured in, but total labor, fluids, etc. was $450 which would have been about the same even if oil pump work was done. The parts from liberty subaru were $230 including a water pump and thermostat and every other seal and gasket. (only the year old timing belt was reused) $680 total compared to $1300 the dealer wanted without doing the water pump. It was a 2.5 DOHC at 99,000 miles. 97 OBW. I wondered where you were located, because I would recommend that garage as experienced and very reasonable if you were close enough. I am in Danville, which is right on I-80, So it's a ways away for you.
