Hi

I awas looking at the '288mm Brake Conversion Kit - £475' When I was up at awesome the other week

If so - how little :)

Is it possible to buy just the hub from yourself? (not the hub carrier)

Cheers

Mark

so what happens if someone buys your kit & needs to replace the wheel bearing?

:confused:

You'd be able to get a wheel bearing easy enough i imagine, never thought of the question to be honest, i'll see what they say at work tomorrow

Excellent - thanks andy

normally you'd expect to replace the hub when you change the wheel bearing you see :)

Cheers

Any luck - or would a buyer have to buy the kit each time they replaced the bearings?

Drive flanges are available easly through ECP or GSF.:shrug:

Its not that hard to remove the bit of bearing that gest stuck when you press em out.

yeah - but these ones aren't std VW.... they're a hybrid of thinner outer CV & spline & 5 stud

VR6 have a larger outer CV IIRC

5 stud hubs can be fitted to 4 stud driveshafts if you use a 5 stud outer CV joint
