As far as i konw they are seperate...it would be one if they were drums and even then i think there is some seperateness about them!

How did you cross thread them - can't get an engineering place to re-tap them?

 

[roly]

The hub comes as part of the wheel bearing assembly so you'll need to buy that

I'd go with re-taping them as said above if possible

You cant re-tap the hub as its a magor fixing point, you will have to replace them mate.

All you need is a new Hub which are about £70 from the dealers and take the hub casing to a local garage as it needs to be pressed in, but you'l have to get the wheel bearing done aswel as they cant do the hub without doing the wheel bearing iirc and thats about £25. Garage shouldnt charge more than about £20 just to put them in the casing for you mate

An those disc an pads are pretty good mate ive got those exact ones all round on mine

Go to a stealers.

 

[jacko18]

just going to send it to a garage to be fixed.shouldnt be to dear.get both done at the same time.

 

[ibizacupra]

bearing has the threaded portion. it does not need to be pressed into anything, simply fit onto the stub and do up the hubnut again.

 

[Craig!]

If your stuck I have a full rear beam complete with callipers, discs, etc could be cheaper than fixing yours at £100.00

 

[turboboy]

ive done this myself its an easy job! save some money and get your hands dirty!

It can be re-tapped, one of my rear hubs were cross threaded and it was retapped to take a Golf bolt.

Yes which are a bigger bolt which is probably not what he wants to do

 

[jacko18]

think im going to buy a pair of new ones for the rear.make it easier. yes they are seperate from the brakes.

shouldnt be to dear will let you know how i get on!

 

[Myki da Pyki]

How did you get on with this mate?

 

[jacko18]

got a new hub bearing the lot mate.wasnt to dear to be honest didnt take long either.

 

[Myki da Pyki]

Got the new hub from eurocarparts today it was £53 inc vat. I'l write up a how to guide when i fit it

 

[Big_daddy]

Any one got a guide for this as i cant find it?

 

[Pyro]

Hubs or bearings?

 

[Big_daddy]

Both, as i have threaded the rear hub wheel nuts , so new hub comes with a bearing,

 

[Pyro]

There not hard at all to be honest wheels off discs, brake calipers and carriers off and then remove hub but and it all pulls off If I remeber correctly then just pop the new ones on and botlt the hub nut up and replace brakes etc

 

[Big_daddy]

Great seems simple job so i wont need any special tools of any sort? eg hub puller
