Arrow GF8 steering knuckle/carrier

Been trying to source new or excellent condition front steering knuckles for a gf8 wagon turbo 2000.

Looking at second hand ones online, i'm even struggling to find the correct one, car is reg as 99 t reg, and regarding the abs tone ring being mounted on the hub rather than the knuckle i'm guessing this is actually a v5 knuckle??

if any one can point, prod or push in the right direction would be appreciated!

For new parts its the same answer every time. Go to Subaru. Or try import car parts who may be a tiny bit cheaper.

Second hand its breakers or ebay.

Second hand parts you haven't got any guarantee

As above import car parts if you want standard car parts good price

If you want STI parts I would order from japan cause they add so much changes easier to wait 3 weeks

Add to that I would definitely replace ball joints and bearings in second hand items.
