idosubaru Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 Does NAPA carry any EJ25 brake pads, I can't find any listed? Seems it only gives EJ22 stuff. Somehow it lists stuff for a 1998 Forester though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davebugs Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 They were the only game in town other than the dealer for parking brake shoes that I needed for a 97 OBW. Seems weird that the regular pads they wouldn't stock. I use Wagner Thermo Quiet's anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a '98 Legacy 2.5, I found this: http://www.napaonline.com/NOLPPSE/(S(ragefzevyv32zwm4q50te445))/Results.aspx?Ne=100000&Nty=1&N=2068008+26261+3068022+3999999+101998 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lostinthe202 Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 I don't know if you order from Napa regularly, but the two things I ordered from them online (a clutch cable and a ball joint) took almost two weeks to show up. These orders were several months apart. I didn't pay for fancy shipping, just ground, but even ground should only take 5 days. I found their website pretty buggy too.

You must have accessed that some other way than the drop down listing. If you choose 1998, Subaru, and Legacy it only gives the EJ22 option. How did you get it to come up? They are *supposed* to have it by tomorrow morning, I hope it's the right thing for my 1996 Legacy Lsi. The first set was wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lostinthe202 Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 I'm surprised that the pads are different between the 2.2 and 2.5, there's no difference in weight of the vehicle or even towing capability right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davebugs Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 I believe sometimes the front calipers are different on L's versus Outbacks (we're probably talking 2.2 vs 2.5). I believe I've run into it even when they are all 15" wheels. But my memory isn't so great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edrach Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 I bought my last set of pads from Primitive Racing in Tigard, OR. Sent them an email, paid for them and had the pads in a day or two by mail or UPS. Right pads and worked just fine for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you choose 1998, Subaru, and Legacy it only gives the EJ22 option. How did you get it to come up? Sorry, the session expired. Here's how to get the listings: Go to http://www.napaonline.com/ Click ''SEARCH NAPA CATALOG'' Enter ''Subaru brake pads'' for Search(keyword) Under ''Refine by Models'' choose ''Legacy'' Under ''Refine by Engine'' choose ''2.5 L 2457 CC H4 DOHC 16 VALVE'' Under ''Refine by Years'' choose ''1998'' Under ''Refine by Category'' choose ''Pads & Shoes'' EDIT: If the info is wrong, blame NAPA, not me.

Perhaps I should add another disclaimer to my post -- ''If you don't like NAPA's website, contact their webmaster.'' Or maybe I need a generic sig line -- ''Any link provided in my post shouldn't necessarily be taken as an endorsement of the linked website's contents.''

idosubaru Posted June 16, 2009 Author Share Posted June 16, 2009 i find it difficult to navigate, not terribly logical, and less than satisfying.yeah it is, he's not talking about your link OBW. it's pretty stupid when OBW finds brake pads one way that aren't listed at all when you search the way i did. not very efficient to have multiple database searches that aren't the same.

OB99W Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 No sweat Gary, I didn't think John was finding fault with what I posted. Some websites seem to be set up so that ''You can't get there from here.'' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
