I could get the bearing but the seals were wrong at every auto parts store out there. I just wanted to fill you guys in on this. I went to the dealer and convinced the man to break open one of his kits to sell me the seals outa it. Almost 40 bucks for two seals. He wanted to sell me the kit for 108 dollars. I got the bearing (timken) for 29 dollars at auto supermarket.
Have a good one!
front wheel bearing seals are a dealer item only.

Yes I had napa seals and...
The inner and outer seals were a smaller diameter(inside) than stock factory. I compared those with the new factory ones I bought. I think they may have worked but I think they might also run a little hot and wear out. Also on the outer seal I would have had to peen the steering nuckle and use a loctite or glue to make the seal hold in position due to the fact that the outer diameter was a little smaller than the stock ones.
When I walked into the dealer with the old seals I took out he started laughing and said you can only get them here. That people do come in like me that have given up on finding the right ones elsewhere.
I do like them damn subarus,
Joe
