Re: Rear wheel bearing

As an update, the rear knuckle assembly off of 02-03 Imprezas/WRX's fits flawlessly! Success! Too bad the rear axle boot was torn to shit :( Considering a boot alone is $20+ dollars, plus grease etc, and the car has 400,000kms on it, I'm going to pick up a brand new cv axle for $100 on sale. Might a...

Re: Rear wheel bearing

The sticky would read: Wheel bearings - Replace with used bub assembly. lol Yes! But it also would have a specific guide on which hub/knuckle assemblies to use, as NOT A SINGLE forum has been able to say yes or no beyond "I think it'll work" which doesn't really help :( GD's chassis impre...

Re: Rear wheel bearing

Definitely a disc brake setup, I basically received the whole rear knuckle minus the caliper and strut assembly. From the reading I've done, the GC8 impreza's had really bad wheel bearings. I figure with only 77,000kms on this one and it being a GD, it should be good for at least another 50,000kms (...

Re: Rear wheel bearing

Well, did I screw up in getting the rear knuckle assembly off of a 2003 Impreza? Unfortunately, the Legassy is 200kms away from me, so this might be a $100 learning experience. Only 70,000kms on it though...

Rear wheel bearing

Hello Legacy Central! I recently picked up a 1993 Legacy Turbo with 400,000kms on it :shock: As such, some parts are worn on it and need replacing. Is it possible to purchase a complete new hub for the rear wheel bearings of a Legacy turbo awd? So far, I have come across two options that might work:...

Thanks for the reply. In all honesty, I am more interested in the drivetrain then anything (even if it needs to be rebuilt).

Thanks for the quick replies guys! Drivers side cv-axle was recently replaced, I am sure that sooner rather then later the rest would need to be replaced as well. I have not gone and looked at the car yet. It would probably be in my possession if I had.

As for the price... how does $800 sound? :-D

Hello all! I was directed here for some good information on the 1989-1994 Legacy. Lots of informative posts, always nice to find on a forum. Now (I am a newb after all am I not?) here is my question: Is it worthwhile to pick up a mechanically sound (compression numbers good, turbo good, drivetrain f...
