WHAT YOU DID TO YOUR TRUCK TODAY!

[Drift]

Well, thats the wheels changed, the oil changed, the bearings re-grease, the brakes checked over, the props greased and everything else including door hinges re-greased, I might wash it one day

I went to the British indoor 4x4 show and brought a couple of shackles and a new towing strap ready for the Strata trip next month.

There was a lack of Fronties there both in the exhibition hall and in the car park which was a bit sad.

I did have a chuckle when looking around the green ovals display vehicles, they all had a least one small puddle of oil underneath unlike there Japanese counterparts.

Best bit for me was the Zuki SJ with 38s on, the owner must of been 7 foot tall or had a step ladder to get into it.
One of the guys was saying the thing almost shook it's self to bits on the drive there due to the extreme mud tyres, even the nyloc nuts were coming loose

[BoxCleva]

Drove to what felt like the other side of the universe to collect a leafer sport

[4x4 bobby]

Yesterday put in a new clutch with help of Horses45 and Alchamist and the FECKING thing still wont work, so the main man Manny is going to sort it for me Im hurting to much to do it all over again. Have noticed though that the bulkhead is split!

[RatCav]

Couldn't quite believe the amount of available bits up there Rob. Little treasure trove of Series A sport bits and pieces.

Those hubs do look the business as well. Nice and shiny ... not that they will stay that way for long lol.

As for me I managed to get a window mechanism with motor for my Troop. Chucking it down with rain though today so fitting it will be delayed

[fudge]

you went to a scrappy with out me

and does that mean rob i have a set of your auto hubs comming my way

[RatCav]

Have you finally gotten over you tyre fetish and are now addicted to auto hubs Fudge

[Hound Dog]

Fudge your better off fitting the fixed hubs off of a B series no welding involved just bolt on and go.

[fudge]

apart from the spline at the end of the CV joint is too long.
and my was make use of a auto hub

and rob dont you want a set of locked hubs for your "toy"

[Drift]

I drove out in the truck and tickled a mermaid under the chin then went and bought some party hats to dig the garden with

[RatCav]

[Drift]

No they wont, I think the shaft and circlip placement is different.
As fudge said the end of the shaft is different on the B series to the A series as the B's do not have the extra bit sticking out for the auto circlip to attach to and this could make the shaft too long on the A series to us B series hubs.

[RatCav]

Manual hubs locate on the inner circlip groove. Auto's on the outer groove. If your saying the B series only has the inner groove on the CV joint, then fitting the B series hub to the A series will be no issue as A series CV joints have both grooves so you can fit either manual or auto hubs.

By that reasoning then a B series can have its original locked hub or a manually locking hub as both require the inner larger circlip groove:



If you wanted to use the B series hubs on an A series I would just take the end of the CV joint off then. Much easier and cheaper than messing about with an autohub welding it up ... and to be honest quicker and possibly cheaper.
