Svx Encyclopedia!!!
This thread is a perfect example of why we need an SVX Enyclopedia. I just read the "Technical" paper on rear wheel bearing replacement. It's a big help but needs to be more thorough. What is the correct torque for the various fastners used in the wheel bearing install? Proper tightening procedure? Preferred method of cleaning out the shipping grease and repacking the bearings in high-temp grease? Preferred grease? etc; etc; None of this info is in the paper. But if our data base were formated like Wikipedia it would be easy for Net members to put important data in. For example:
Here's the numbers I got from the local San Diego Subaru dealer:
OEM Rear wheel bearing part # 28016PA010 - $98.00 ea.
OEM Outer seal # 28015AA070 - $11.13 ea.
OEM Inner seal # 28015AA040 - $13.48 ea.
None of these parts numbers are in the "Tech" paper and should be...with a Wikipedia-like encyclopedia we could edit this kind of info as we build it and make it way easier for those who follow to easily access this valuable data.
What do you think? Make sense?
