so you are planning on swapping all the way around? did you get 5 lug stuff? please take lots of pics and make a detailed write up when you get done.

I wanted the hubs but I really didn't want to swap out the entire FB suspension. I think the consensus is that I need new inner bearings machined to fit inside the FC hubs but fit on the FB spindle as well. I'm going to take them to a machine shop in the next few days.



A writeup will ensue once everything is completed https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png.

will be greatly anticipated. the 5 lug hubs from the fc could be had for little im sure, would be great to have all that stopping power.



im not interested in swapping the susp. either, just the brakes if that is possible. only major cost i can see in this is new 5 lug wheels

And that's an expense I WANT haha. I got the rotors/hubs/calipers from Pull-A-Part (a local junkyard) for $62.
