does anyone know where i can get a cheap place that was replace and put in a new wheel bearing for cheap?
I actually had the same problem with my wheel bearing. Check out this link. http://mnsubaru.com/forums/showthread.php?t=13090
Yeah, I replaced the rear wheel bearing in my impreza a while back. I had trouble getting the rear hub out because some of the bolts were so rusted. I also had access to a hydraulic press for changing the bearing, but I would only recommend doing that part yourself if you know what you're doing or you could damage your new bearing. If you can get the hub out, there may be some shops that would press the bearings for you. Otherwise some places have the tools to change the bearing without taking the hub out. You can get discounts on parts (and labor I think) through Morries Brooklyn Park Subaru and Morries Minnetoka Subaru. Check out the Vendors forum for those links. You can also check out the Shops link at the top of the page for other places that might be able to help change it. Joel
