Welcome to Pearl.com, I'm Kevin and I'm here to help resolve your Automotive issue.
Hello, before replacing the transfer clutches and solenoid I would find a dealer or repair shop that can perform a Wynns Transmission flush including their Shudder Guard additive. I have corrected about 75% of Subaru binding issues by performing this service before any major repair. Once they flush the ATF and then add the Shudder Guard, drive the car for at least 50 miles before determining if the service worked.
The service costs around $150.00.
Let me know if I can help you further, Kevin
