Yes, I am also asking the seller. DSS 190N are out of stock, I know people have had luck with those as well. Wanted to check on this one. Thanks.

ktmrider Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Holy clap Batman, that is way cheap!So long as it's a 190N cross it will work ( non-turbo and GT models use a different axle assy ).I have bought from MAC Auto on Ebay, good prices and products. BTW no Scoobaru items from them, bought for other vehicles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macautoparts Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 I am actually the seller of these axles and we have been selling a lot of them lately. They are DTA brand axles. I am not trying to spam you guys i just wanted to let you know it is a good deal and we are a reputable company. I actually just got off the phone with someone that was asking about these like 5 minutes ago. We are open 9-5 m-f Eastern time if you want to call 800 209 9598.

mwiener2 Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Mr. Seller: Why is there a big disclaimer about proper axle torquing procedures? My Mods List (Updated 8/22/17) 2005 Outback FMT Running on Electrons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

94sportsedan Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 It doesn't say anything about being for a GT or list turbo like most vehicle part listings would designate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macautoparts Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 You can double check to make sure it fits your particular application at the link below, but according to the manufacturer 2005-2006 it fits all models. http://www.showmetheparts.com/drivetech/ As for the disclaimer it is only there as a precaution for people that love to throw the impact gun on any bolt they can find.

macautoparts Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 i am on the phone with the manufacturer right now to verify that it will fit the turbo, because i do see some other manufacturers do have different part #s for turbo and non-turbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macautoparts Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 According to the manufacturer 2005-2007 is all the same. Empi another large manufacturer of axles also confirmed this, we can get this axle as well but it is a little more expensive. I have seen a tech bulletin on this axle as well. The axle according to them fits the models below 2005-2007 Outback Front - ALL MODELS SB-20432007-2009 Legacy Front - Automatic Transmission ONLY SB-20432005-2006 Legacy Front - ALL SB-20432009 Outback Front - Except 2.5XT Limited with MT SB-20432008 Outback Front - Except XT Limited with MT SB-2043 **Technician must check carefully for a Subaru defective OE snap ring on the inner joint of the OE axle removed. If the OE axle does not have an inner snap ring or if it is only partially intact the snap ring or its parts will still be in the transmission and must be removed before the new axle is installed.** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
94sportsedan Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 I confirmed on www.rockauto.com that gt and non gt are the same part number there. It seems turbo and non turbo car at least for 2005 are the same part number for FR & FL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macautoparts Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Yes they sell cardone axles. Cardone, EMPI, and DTA say it is the same number the only company that make two different part#'s is DSS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macautoparts Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 sorry but no one that we deal with is making the rears right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z0rr0 Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 there is a small market for it, since subaru wants $300+ per shaft. all of us with 6-speed conversions, or the guyd contemplating 6-speed conversions would be very interested in a lower cost option.

macautoparts Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 I can mention it to a few different manufacturers, it cant hurt. The only problem is usually they will not produce anything unless there is a large demand but it cant hurt to ask. Ill check it out. PS. I spoke to the manufacturer i do not think this will be made in the future due to lack of demand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 I am in need of a new half-shaft, as well. If we can confirm the fit I'll be all over this! Purchased! Can't wait to get this on my car. My current CV axle is for some reason missing the clamp on the inner boot and I don't think there is any grease left inside the boot, as there is grease ALL OVER EVERYTHING nearby the boot. Grrr; what a mess. Was thinking about just repacking it and getting a new clamp, but at this price I'll just replace it. Might be an easily-repairable half-shaft for sale soon...

Scooter Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Follow up: THANK YOU MAC AUTO! First off, the day after I ordered I got a phone call from MacAuto saying that the particular CV Axle that I had ordered (DTA) was out of stock, but that they had gone ahead and shipped one to me that was a different - slightly more expensive - brand (EMPI), at no extra charge to me. I greatly appreciated this, as I already had an appointment made for the installation and wouldn't have wanted any delays. Took the part and car to a local repair shop that had been recommended to me, as my favorite Subaru mechanic isn't very close, and they quoted me 1-hour labor for the job of replacing just this front pass-side CV Axle. I never opened the box myself, but the guys at the shop said the new axle fit perfectly and looked to be a quality part. Been driving on it for a week now with now issues. My shipped price for this Axle was $66.90; I think shipping was like $20 of that. Installation cost me $85. Seek first to understand, then to be understood. In other words: SEARCH before you post!
