I have a 1998 Subaru Legacy Outback, 2.5 motor with two piece hydraulic Tensioner Roller. Does this kit fit the one piece or two? They changed mid-yea

The specs for this part # say 1 tensioner is included. Gates part # TCKWP277B says it includes 2 tensioners.

The one I bought was a one piece, but they make both, depending on the configuration of your truck. If you have a truck with the flow through console, you will need the two piece set. If you have a front bench, I would recommend the one piece because it gives you the best protection in the front. The carpet underneath my mat still looks brand new.

That should be the the one for that year. I didn't realize I had the older of the two in which they changed the motor mid way through 97 so I bought a tensioner from subaru.

First time I ordered filters/crush washers for my 2012 Outback, the crush washers were too large and the part number was unspecified. Second time around I researched further and received the correct crush washer. Subaru part number is 803916010 and it is listed as Gasket, 16X21X2.3.

I can t recall the engine number break but I think it was sometime in 98 so I would guess if your car is 99 or newer its this kit. If it was me I would remove the timing cover (10 minute job) and look at the tensioner. If it is the early style it will have a hydraulic pusher style tensioner, if it is the new style it will be a spring loaded self contained tensioner. This tckwp331 kit is what I refered to as the newer style. Hope this helps

The website says YES it fits your application, but...on my 2000 3.8 the belt was so tight that there was very little play in the tensioner. The instructions mention another idle pulley part number as a solution if the belt is too tight. After 1 year with no trouble, but squeaky idle pulley, I ordered the smaller idle pulley from an auto parts store and now the tensioner has a little more play. Without this kit I couldn't drive the van in wet weather.

This kit has the "later" style tensioner (Gates P/N T43138) - same one used on the newer SOHC EJ25.

a rheostat is not compatible with a 2 speed motor. The motor will over heat and short out. You need a single pole, double throw switch.

I dont know If if it says it does not fit subaru you probably need a different style. I would contact the manufacturer. Our first set arrived damaged with missing pieces it was obvioulsy a returned item. They did rectify and sent a new set ovrnight

The parts man at the dealership stated you only needed to replace the water pump and timing belt. The idlers and tensioner would be good for over two hundred thousand I went with the dealer's pump and belt. The kit I bought on Amazon, one of the gaskets or seals leaked and I had to redo everything.

I bought Item # 1501981 MA that looked like these parts for my 21" craftsmansnow blower, they fit perfectly, I had to remove / drill our the existing rivets and replace them with bolts, took about 1 hours, but now I am good to go, really throwssnow again.

I used it for my 99 legacy outback 2.5 DOHC and it fit perfectly. Gates is an OEM. Just note that the multiple marks used to make sure the timing is correct only line up at installation. Once you rotate the engine they will only line up about 1 out of every 50 or 60 turns or so.

Probably not. Since the front exhaust is split I would get 2 rolls of the 1 inch, that way you can wrap it tighter. The 2 inch was a little too wide to get the contours well of my Subaru header and up pipe.

I'm not sure what your question is? But from what I get but on the 97 2.5L models there were two different motors (mid year change) for that year. This kit works one one of those models. If you have a 99 this should be the only kit that would work on your year. If you need verification you can get the code off the top of your engine and double check it with that engine code.

really, thats funny, clutch has 20k miles on it since the install. Maybe you should learn your Subaru's before posting on here. There is a 2.5L clutch and there is a 2.2L clutch. The difference is 7 7/8 and 8 7/8 inch disk and a different size fly wheel. I've owned and drove Subaru's for 20 years, thats all I've owned. my 98 is running the stock 2.5l DOHC engine with the phase 1 transmission which is EXACTLY whats in your 98 Lego Outback. Nice try on trolling my review, now back to your cave

The kit is designed to work with the flywheel that is already on the car. If something is wrong with that flywheel I would get a new one from Subaru. The kits are essentially original equipment and work very well.

This includes only a single cone filter, single heat shield, and a single mounting bracket. I have it installed on my rev up motor (2006). If you have the HR motor with 2 intakes then I would think yes you need to order 2. I don't know how the fitment for the HR motor would be with the heat shield and mounting bracket though. I think they're pre fit to work only for the single intakes?
