Installation Notes
- This kit is designed for front axle fitment on Subaru models. Verify positioning before installation.
- Clean the hub and axle shaft surfaces thoroughly before installation to ensure proper bearing seating and prevent premature wear.
- Replace the shaft seal included in the kit – inspect the axle shaft surface for scoring or damage that could compromise seal performance.
- Ensure the circlip is properly seated in its groove to secure the bearing in place.
- Torque the hub retaining nut to Subaru factory specifications; over-tightening can damage the bearing.
- We recommend professional installation to ensure correct bearing preload and to verify fitment against original components.
