Detailed Product Description

The Dorman 951-402 wheel bearing and hub assembly is a critical component in the driveline and axles category, designed to maintain wheel alignment and support vehicle weight while allowing smooth rotation. This assembly features a 27-spline axle interface, ensuring a secure connection to the drivetrain. The included wheel studs (five in total, each 12 mm in size) and flange simplify installation and provide a stable mounting surface for the wheel. The circular flange with four bolt holes (12 mm diameter) matches the OEM specifications for the compatible Subaru models.

Additionally, this assembly incorporates a tone ring for the Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS), which is essential for maintaining vehicle stability and control during braking. While the ABS sensor is not included, the tone ring is compatible with the factory ABS system on the Subaru Crosstrek, Forester, Impreza, and XV Crosstrek. The precise hub pilot diameter of 84 mm and flange offset of 66.5 mm ensure proper fitment and alignment, reducing vibration and premature wear.
