Well, I ordered the 2003 forrester bearings. At subaru parts.com it was actually cheaper than the legacy bearings. it was $127.36 for 2 bearings, 2 inner oil seals, 2 outer oil seals, and 2 day shipping, and damn I forgot to get the bearing grease too. . .
I have an appointment on Wednesday the 29th to put them in. I'll make sure to let you guys know how it turns out. |

Oi?
I could've sworn that the bearings I put on two years ago were NTN bearings. Canadian difference? VK Quote:

By any chance did you catch the BCA p/n for these bearings?

here is the stock SVX stampings. These are the high failure bearings, not the new improved 2003 bearings.
There are 3 stampings on the bearing spaced equally apart. JAPAN CL NTN 4T-CRI-08A02 BTW: This roller bearing is Subaru part # 28016PA010 Hopefully, we can talk AbdominalSnoman into posting the stampings from the 2003 bearing before he has them installed. Doug

I was impressed. I ordered these last night at around 6pm and by the time I woke up (1pm) they were already on my doorstep. This is coming from about as far away from me as you can get in the US (Tacoma Washington)
The stampings are: JAPAN EN NTN TM-DE08A74 Subaru part number 28016FC001 ($43.05) I also ordered the inner and outer seals that coorespond to these bearings: inner seal part number: 28015AA021 ($8.15) outer seal part number: 28015AA070 ($6.73) all the prices are from www.subaruparts.com I didn't find their phone number online but in an email from them they have it listed as: 877-473-6200 and they're open 9-6 pst To find the bca part numbers you can go here: http://www.carparts.com/parts/sample...rtnum=NONE&dc= (all the different REAR wheel bearings they have are the same thing (ignore the inner outer . . .)) They also have Beck/Arnley brand ones. If anyone wants pictures of the wheel bearings before I put them in let me know and I'll borrow someone's digital camera. Oh, please wait to do this until after I try to put them in. Wed the 29th. |

Well, the forrester bearings are a bust
I compared the forrester bearings that I got to real SVX bearings and they have a different outer dimension, inner dimension, and length. They definitely will not work. Hopefully Subaruparts.com will take them back as I have not taken them out of the plastic bag that they come in. I probably would have tried to see if Legacy bearings would fit, but I didn't have time since I just got SVX bearings to compare the Forrester bearings to on Monday. Sorry that I haven't had a chance to get pictures of the forrester bearings compared to SVX bearings. I have been really busy as I am cramming as much UNIX knowledge as possible that I might remotely need as an administrator before I have an interview Friday. I told the shop to keep my old ones so I could take pictures with them.
