Autoround Rear Wheel Hub Assembly for Subaru Outback 2015–2021 — Pre-assembled Bearing & ABS Tone Ring

Autoround 512536 is a direct-replacement rear wheel hub assembly engineered to restore rear-wheel rotation, ABS sensor function, and wheel mounting for compatible Subaru models from 2015–2021.

This hub assembly is built as a one-piece, pre-assembled bearing and hub unit that replaces worn or noisy rear hubs on a range of Subaru models. It includes the wheel mounting face, integrated bearing, and ABS tone ring so you can swap the complete unit without pressing bearings separately. Autoround tests these assemblies to meet or exceed original equipment fit and performance standards, and the listing includes cross-reference part numbers to help confirm fitment.

Which Subaru models and years will this hub fit?

The Autoround 512536 hub is designed for many late-model Subarus. It fits several Outback, Legacy, Forester, Ascent, WRX and WRX STI configurations within the stated model years, but always verify against your VIN or OEM part number before ordering.

• Compatible models: Outback and Legacy (2015–2021), Ascent (2019–2021), Forester (2019), WRX/WRX STI variants (2015–2019 depending on trim), and some 2017–2018 WRX trims.
• Replaceable OEM cross-reference numbers included for easier confirmation.
• Rear axle location and 5-lug mounting pattern match specified Subaru rear hubs.

How does this assembly handle ABS and wheel speed sensing?

The unit arrives with an integrated ABS tone ring so the vehicle’s wheel-speed sensor retains correct input after installation. That means the anti-lock brake and traction control systems can continue to function as designed once the assembly is installed correctly.

• Built-in ABS reluctor ring for consistent sensor readings.
• Precision-mounted tone ring to maintain factory sensor spacing.
• Designed to minimize electrical or signal variances compared with OEM hubs.

What are the practical benefits and quality expectations?

Autoround units are manufactured and inspected to meet stringent dimensional and bearing performance standards, offering a cost-effective alternative to dealer parts while maintaining fit, form, and function. The hub is pre-assembled to simplify replacement and reduce labor compared with separate bearing-and-hub jobs.

• Pre-assembled bearing and hub save installation time and tooling.
• Quality-tested to align with OEM tolerances for durability and noise control.
• Includes standard five-lug wheel flange suitable for OEM wheels and aftermarket options.

How difficult is installation and what support is available?

Installation requires standard suspension and brake service tools; hubs are intended to be a direct swap but may require a torque wrench and basic press or hub removal tools depending on vehicle condition. Autoround provides a limited QA period and customer service contact for fitment or quality questions.

• Designed for direct replacement—no bearing press during reassembly in most cases.
• Follow factory torque specs for axle nut and wheel studs to ensure safety.
• Autoround offers three years of quality assurance and customer support for issues.

Who is this for? If you own a compatible Subaru and are hearing rear hub growl, feeling wheel play, or experiencing ABS or traction control warnings tied to a wheel-speed sensor fault, this assembly is intended as a straightforward, vehicle-specific replacement. It’s suitable for DIY mechanics with suspension experience, independent shops seeking a reliable aftermarket hub, or owners who prefer a pre-assembled unit to reduce labor time. Always verify fitment against your VIN, factory part number, or an experienced technician before purchase.
