Ignition Barrel Rebuild – Exchange (EA81)
Worn ignition barrels are a very common issue on older Subaru Brumbys — sloppy keys, sticking when turning, or even failure to start the vehicle.
We offer a professional ignition barrel exchange service to get your Brumby back to reliable turn-key operation with minimal down time.
Each unit is fully rebuilt by a qualified locksmith and supplied with 2 freshly cut keys. These are genuine Subaru barrels only — we do not accept cheap aftermarket copies, as they don’t fit or function correctly.

3️⃣ We express-ship a professionally rebuilt key barrel back to you
