Hub Assembly/Wheel Bearing

Post by Noah »

I did some searching and couldnt quite figure it out...


1995 Legacy AWD manual-

Im getting more and more certain that my RR wheel bearing is committing seppuku. If I load the right side by turning left I get that great wa, wa, wa , wawawwawaaw. Anyway, what I am trying to figure out is if I can do this without a press.

I found a Beck/Arnley part number 0516057 that is an Axle Bearing and Hub Assembly. It says Bearings NOT sold Seperately (for ABS also). Does this include the seals needed AND would this unit include the wheel bearing (is that the same as the axle bearing). I am new to the whole AWD and independent axle game.

Can anyone point me to pictures of this assembly and a wheel bearing?

Thanks

EDIT// I found some stuff on NASIOC, looks like the wheel bearing lives on the inner side of the knuckle from the hub assy. Also looks like pressing is unavoidable. dern

You are correct, your only other option would be to source a low mileage replacement hub from a parts car.

If that hub assembly is the same as a first gen (which it should be) it's pressable. Ive done it many times and even purchased a press for the two scoobys i have
