Installed a set of four hub bearings on my 205 Crosstrek after finding 3 of them bad. The new ones went on easily and seem very heavy duty. Definitely worth the effort! Recommend!

Arrives in 3 days . . . not bad since it was shipped from United Arab Emerites via Dubai and Germany. Fit my vehicle and solved my problem.

Subaru parts have Subaru stamped right on the part itselfi bought a wheelbarne last year from subaruevery Subaru. Part is stamped Subaru. This one has nothing on it in the box. Looks like it's been open about 30 times

Installed without issue. worked right away and no surprises. It's a Subaru part which is good. It's NTN bearing which should be good. It has been fine for months but time will tell.

Old one very hard to get out but new one went on easy. Driven on for 300 miles so far , no noise. Great price

this is a Subaru genuine part which cost me less than $300.00 and I paid $200.00 for labor making a total of lest than $500.00 and the dealer wanted to charge me $1500.00 for the same material and the same labor.

These are FACTORY, OEM parts and great quality... Two in a box, I only replaced one, just in case, and the first one was hard work... Plenty of videos show removal and install, and everyone talks about how hard it is. I had the typical rusted and seized bearing that was no longer mitigated by the radio volume... I removed the E-Brake cable but I won't do that for the next one... remove it all, and with the car on a jackstand, hit it with a heavy 3-4lb or heavier mallet, alternating from right to left, bottom and top... I used a chisel on the ears a few times... I didn't try to kill it, I just wanted to beat on it without smacking the fender or the shield... It's a game of millimeters. And beating on it from one side is not going to do it. Having the car low means gravity works that hammer more than your shoulder.... If you have an old brake disc or drum, put it on for more leverage... Good luck. We got 100k out of the first set, hoping to get another 100k out of these.
