deja Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 I bought what was supposed to be a 240Z front suspension with Toyota 4 piston caplipers. The calipers were not installed. When we tried to install them it was obvious the hubs were not correct for the spacers we had, the calipers were about 1/2 " too far out and the hub did not look like it was seated on the spindle completely. We purchased 240Z hubs and it all worked perfectly. My quesion is what hubs were on there. Looking at Modern Mororsports website there are picts of 3 hubs, mine is not one of these. The ones I have are square, 4 lug, NOT scalloped like the 240Z hubs. Any ideas what they are? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMortensen Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 No clue, but I do have a couple sets of 240 hubs, one with stock studs and one with longer studs. $40 for either set and I'll cover the shipping. PM if you're interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PM if you're interested. Thanks but I already bought the correct hubs. At this point I'm curious as to what this guy sold me. Tip of the ice burg on this project. I have also learned the hard way a 240Z suspension will NOT fit in a 280Z. I was told by this guy it would. It also had CV joint stubs in the rear suspension without the adapters so that woudn't fit either, we had to use my 280Z U-joing stubs.

deja Posted July 12, 2006 Author Share Posted July 12, 2006 They're new to me and the guys at the shop have no clue either. I meant to take some picts today but forgot my camera. I'm not where the car is right now, I'll try to get some tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
