heye guys,

looking around the wreckers yestereday and they said that i coukld fit late 75 hubs onto 80s front axles fine, is this correct?

i have a 6month 92 80s, zso i think i have the first size axles, fine spline i think?

what year model 75 should i get hubs from to fit on to it?

also, charging $130 for a pair, good price or not?

Cheers
John

I think i know what you mean....late 78/79 hubs with 5 studs.....they will fit...but earlier 75 hubs run different discs and offsets...they wont fit...put later 80 discs and callipers on your hubs and away you go...u need 80 hubs...

bugger, cant find anyone with 80series hubs anywhere, rare as rocking horse you know what

didnt really want to go all the way out and upgrade brakes and calipers, no other ones fit? 60series or something?

i have some shitty hubs that came with my part time but i dont expect them to last long

sorry man...i reread a third time your post....you mean the freewheeling hubs right....hilux solid diff, 60 series 75 series and 80 are all interchangeable. there is two sets for sale on ebay at the moment.
