deru Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 I got each hub from a different source and they appear to be slightly different. The hub on the right had a seal with a lip and the one on the left used a seal that went flush with the edge, that seal appears to work on both hubs and the seal with a lip will not. Will I have any problems running these hubs on an s30 as far as offset and the hub seal are concerned? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezzzzzzz Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 I have a set each of these as well. The one on the left is the earlier 5 bolt hub, I believe. I intend to use the later style to the right. A ring will be machined to pressed over that lip and tacked into place. The ring will be machined to accept a stock S30 oil seal and place it in the correct relationship to the spindle.

deru Posted July 22, 2009 Author Share Posted July 22, 2009 Well I picked up two new seals which are the flush seated type and installed both hubs. Both seam to drag a little but I'm thinking it's the seals and they'll wear in some as I drive it. Both appear to have the exact same offset as my wheel is probally 1/16" from the strut on both sides! Ezzzz that sounds like a great idea and probally will work better but I'm gonna try this out first and see how it does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
