BP wheel bearing replacement


gazzy2000

Recommended Posts

Right, after some googling the OEM part number is 28473-ag001 (for my car 2003 BP5a) and is $359.00 full retail, Clubsub trade price through Subaru is $309 + GST

wud cost you $500 per side to get SUbaru to do it for you, watch a vid on YT and do it yourself using an AFter market part will cost $111.00

This place is Oz does after market ones for $111.00 delivered http://spare-parts.co.nz/0882-b13mr-rear-wheel-hub.html

and apparently there is a design fault with the bearings and thats why the crap out, you see alot of 2005, 2009 on the interwebz with the same issues.

The aftermarket ones from Oz with the new stub axle/wheel studs, will save you needing a press. I used Koyo bearing hubs that required pressing the stub axle out to swap it over:

I also had the worst case scenario of axles seized into the hubs. Even with this hydraulic beast puller they wouldn't budge:

Ended up having to remove the trailing arms/axles complete and putting them in a 20t press:

Probably one for the dumb question thread, but more useful here hopefully. Are the left and right hub units identical? It is hard to tell from images if there are any offsets top/ bottom or left/ right. Can't find a 'LR' part number. It's too wet and cold to go and get under the car right now =]

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
