chessyB Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 I was in a rush to put my stock springs back onto my car so I could trade it off for a truck. I love my 98 outback but there is some problems starting to happen with it "plus I bought a boat" So I wanted to sell it and get a truck. I some how put the back springs on the front and the front on the back when you have to use brute force and ignorance to put a car back together its a bad sign but I kept going and got it to work. The trade for the truck feel though now that winter is coming and I cant really use a boat this time of year I have to fix my mistake. I also broke two wheel studs on the back and found out that I have a ripped CV boot on the front. Does anyone have any good tips on replacing the wheel studs in the rear? I looked online and cant find much any tips you can and share with me would be much appreciated. I replaced the front passenger side cv axle not to long ago the driver side was the one that has the ripped boot. I was going to see if they can be interchanged so I can go warranty it and get one for free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blankdeluxe Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 Remove the hub, press out the broken studs. Press in the new ones. As far as axles go, check the part numbers from one side to the other and if they match up they are the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chessyB Posted September 9, 2013 Author Share Posted September 9, 2013 Don't you have to press on and off the HUB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

86bratman Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Uh, yeah, that video has nothing to do with second gen legacys... Our hubs are all press fit into the bearing, not a bolt in assembly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
