Need a hub

[Gumby]

Blew all the studs out of my hub again. The left side one had two holes that were too wobbled out to re-thread so it was really just a matter of time.

Need one from a later model 40, 55 or a 60/2 or a mini truck. Just the part that carries the wheel bearings with the wheel mounting flange on it.

Can it be from an early @71 fj40 front? I have one on a parts doner but would need to then remove the whole truck and scrap it cause the thing won't roll and my bud might then want it out of his landscape yard. I'd be happy to grab the truck and get rid of the thing if you want the hub.
Ring me if you want me to get busy...

 

[Gumby]

No. I have an axle from a 73. It looks like the bearings are smaller on a drum brake front.

thanks for the offer though.

This looks like what you are looking for if nobody has one around otherwise.

You didn't save the ones off that 60 obviously. I'll be hitting the bone yard this weekend for a couple things and see if there is one available.

 

[Gumby]

The only reason I went to rescue that 60 was for the hubs.

Derik had already scarfed them.

I picked it up anyway for this jelly doughnut chaser I know who needed a motor.

 

[PhilC64]

This jelly donut chaser appreciates the rescue and will be searching for hubs this weekend.

I need the hubs, not the lockouts. Looks like the pic in E's link.

my bad

you can use ifs hubs, and i beleive if you do that you dont need wheel spacers

 

[Gumby]

Really? Same axle stick out? Same lock out pattern?

 

[4rnr]

yeah everything works, you have to use the solid axle locking hub body (30 spline). But the only hick-up is it moves the rotor out about 1" so the caliper wont bolt up. So you have to either make/buy a spacer (sky-offroad IIRC carries one) to space the rotor back. Or alot of guys just move the caliper to the out side of the caliper mounting ears on the knuckle. Then they use 1/2" bolts and nylock nuts. And you grind a little off the caliper ears to make clearence for the nut-rotor. Or you can tap the caliper.

Im not sure if you must use a IFS caliper. I dont think so though.

It also gains you 1.5" of width/side

I know what hubs you're looking for and will do a bit of looking this weekend. Mini-truck guys are always looking to do some screwed up s*** just to make their junk look like an LC.

and thats why this mod is using mini-truck parts?.....

Us mini truck guys think outside the box.
