After my 1998 Subaru Outback had its front and rear seals replaced the car vibrates and is running rough. It was smooth and quiet before…my mechanic agrees something isn’t right but he can’t figure out what went wrong. Any ideas?

Rotate the wheels front to back and see if that changes things. If so it is one or more wheels/tyres.

Front and rear WHAT seals?

Engine?

Wheel bearings?
