Alan_M 66 1 Cars Posted May 26, 2007 (edited) I'm finally going to get round to fixing my bent rear beam bent stub axle). I have some new stubs coming, and also some ZX arms but no shafts. My 309 shafts are going on, and I was also going to stick my disc hubs from the 309 arms on them. According to the Haynes manual though, once you've pulled the hub bearings off they are fubar and have to get new ones, which it also mentions only come complete with a new hub!?!?!?!?! Please somebody tell me this is tripe Edited May 26, 2007 by Alan_M Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zilog 0 Posted May 26, 2007 The outer races are the same piece of metal as the hub - the hub is the bearing outer race. If you are careful I am sure you can clean, regrease and reuse the old bearing as I have done on my car. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sandy 191 Posted May 26, 2007 It is possible, but requires great care and cleanliness, not easy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miles 331 1 Cars Posted May 26, 2007 If you press the pin out instead of pulling the bearing off you save it without any problems at all Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alan_M 66 1 Cars Posted May 27, 2007 (edited) Just noticed whilst searching GSF that the 309 and ZX hubs have different part numbers. Can someone tell me if 309 hubs will fit onto a ZX arm using 205 GTi 1.9 stubs? Edited May 27, 2007 by Alan_M Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sandy 191 Posted May 27, 2007 Can someone tell me if 309 hubs will fit onto a ZX arm using 205 GTi 1.9 stubs? Did exactly that on my Goodwood, no problems. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
