No, unfortunately it's a 600 dollar part and 30 minutes of work.
It's 2200 at the shop...
So i ordered one from Subaru and it'll be here Tuesday for me to change myself.
$600 I never saw one priced that high , is it a big rig hauler?No, unfortunately it's a 600 dollar part and 30 minutes of work.

Subaru forester
I can get one from any of those hole in the wall part depots for like 300 but you know how those parts are for quality.
Napa, advanced auto, auto zone, they're all 600-1400, Subaru is 690, i know the parts dealer so i got it for 609 after taxes.
Car parts are just as through the roof as everything else these days. It's rough out here.

As the old saying goes, "If its got tits or tires, it's gonna give ya trouble."
On the fords I work on we press the bearing off and put a new one on.
The driveshaft for my CRV is discontinued from Honda. The $180 driveshaft assembly on rock auto generally lasts for about 60k miles. So would last me about ten years.

Up and down a mountain, twice.

See ya's in the morning, Misfits. 
Good morning venerable Misfits!
A partly cloudy day here starting at 47F and predicted to reach 67F. I've started wearing my blanky lined jeans.
I donated the 2003 Suburban rear seat from storage to a local salvage yard. I offered it to them free and they accepted, but when I dropped it off Saturday they were closed, so I left it by their door. That highlights that an alternate to asking if people want my treasures, is to just leave it on their doorsteps and run. Like zucchini toward the end of the grow season.
After sorting out the Jeep battery drain issues, it appears that it is a parasitic battery drain of 1.6 amps, but I didn't figure out where yet. To do so in a reasonable fashion, it looks like I need to disconnect a cable under the hood for the measurement, because the battery is under the passenger seat and the fuses are under the hood. That or get someone to stay inside the vehicle and call out to me as I pull the fuses.

I hate parasitic draws. Sometimes can be hard to find. Especially with the new modules. They have a period of draw before they go to sleep. Pulling fuses that supply some of their voltage will reset that sleep cycle and create a draw temporarily
