Dave, you don't say what year your car is.

These are the parts numbers I used when ordering mine:

Rear Bearing [L or R] 28016PA010

Outer Seal [L or R] 906250020

Inner Seal [L or R] 28015AA021

Snap ring [L or R] 28035AA010

Hubs [L or R] 28052 PA010

If the person doing the job for you does not use a proper pullers, they can deform the hub, and new bearings inserted will fail quickly. Otherwise you should not need a hub.

Snap ring might be OK if you don't break it. They are cheap enough so maybe better get a new one. You DO need to get the inner and outer seal though.

Also, and VERY important, remove the packing grease the bearing comes wrapped in, and fill the bearing with proper bearing grease.

{Because mechanics kept installing the bearings with the packing grease, and the bearings kept failing, Subaru decided that all bearings would come wrapped in the proper grease. This happened maybe '99. Because you have NO idea how long the bearing they send you will have been on the shelf, carefully remove all the grease in it and pack with proper stuff before install. You have been warned}
