AISIN’s TKF-006 kit brings factory-matched parts — including an AISIN water pump with a diecast aluminum housing and carbon ceramic seal — plus high-quality belt and pulley components from reputable suppliers. The kit is packaged ready to install and intended for compatible Subaru Forester, Impreza, Legacy and Outback model years listed by fitment.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy should I replace the timing belt and water pump at the same time?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRemoving the same covers and accessories to access the timing belt also exposes the water pump, tensioner and pulleys, so replacing everything now avoids repeating the same labor later.
