This is a very informative thread for me as I'll be doing this job in the near future. Does it matter much to you to use Subaru or non-Subaru parts in your SVX?

Not to me, I'm one cheap SOB, and buy parts from the cheapest place I can The Subaru list price on all the parts I needed was $643, and I'm getting everything for about $250....if I had plenty of $$$ I might try to get genuine Subaru Parts, but beggers can't be chosers

No more than I drive mine, the cheap parts should last me forever

It was the right rear roaring at the 10th Anniv. Meet (the 4th one I might add) but I replaced the knuckle and bearing after that meet.....the one I just replaced was the front right, the 1st time for it.

As for an update, I installed the new water pump yesterday, and I am now waiting on the new Idlers, so I can put it back together, hopefully by next weekend.

Me too! , I hated that it broke during the season that I want to get it out and drive

Drew up some house plans for a local couple in my free time,...made enough to get the parts....doing the labor myself.....so, it's all good Was just pissed when it happened because I had JUST put it back on the road the night before
I'm over it now
