Hi, I have a subaru impreza wrx sti version iv type-r coupe, I have just had both of the rear bearings replaced.

The garage needs to know what offset to put the bearings on (how many clicks/torque or something)- can anyone help?

I think you need to state exactly which bearings you had replaced - diff, wheel etc....

When fitting the bearing to the hub & then the flange to the bearing, you press everything home until it stops.
After fitting the hub & driveshaft you need to torque the hub nut to 160Ftlb. Before peening the nut over.

Hope this helps
