Waxiboy Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 What's really holding me off on this mod is the removal of the dust shield. Now I am wondering if I could find myself a pair of STi rear hubs with dust shields, would it be possible to do a "transplant"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffK1320 Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 When I did my full Brembo conversion I removed the rear dust shields. They are spot welded on. '07 Forester STI (ECS Performance)..SOLD!

hassa Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 It sounds worse than it is but it's really not that tough a job. If you have access to a pneumatic hammer/chisel then I would recommend using that. When the guys at AZP did my install, they used a pneumatic hammer and it cut through it like butta....literally took just a couple of minutes for each.

Waxiboy Posted March 12, 2009 Author Share Posted March 12, 2009 What I am saying is that if you remove the OEM LGT rear dust shield, can you replace it with the dust shield from an STi (welding involved), assuming I can get the full STi rear hubs.
