Safe to say any shop can do that, its not rocket science and is general maintenance related.

Most automotive machine shops will do it also. That's what I do here because most shops get all squirrely when I mention that it's a Subaru. Subarus are like alien spaceships here in South Carolina.

thank you guys, i called a couple of the shops you guys mentioned and they were like no you're going to have to take it to a machine shop, and finally one of the merchants close by in my area said they could do both of them for hundred dollars.

performance unlimited in norfolk is a machine shop, and I'm petty sure Jeff will not change you a $100 to press out a bearing.
