Started the install of the new hubs and discs. also installed Muellers ft bearings. It should be interesting to tell the differance from the old stiff poly bushings and KTBs that had no give and a very good handling. to the unknown.

My God Bernie, yellow suspension??!! They look just like mine and I hate to cover those hubs up but I have too. How much overhang do the Volvo pads have at the outer edge of the rotor? I am thinking about the wider Volvo calipers if I have problems with the M calipers and heat but I don't think I will? I didn't in Tecate and that was hot and I really worked the brakes hard.

There is some overhang but if you can find a rebuild kit you can move the hole enough to eliminate the overhang . Aaron it did not bother the old ones but if you champher the pads it would not hurt. I havent been able to find any kits for the volvo calipers.
Bernie ps slits sold me the new A arms and some other parts so I did not have to destroy the old A arms for the new bearings that I got from Mike. those bushings are so tight they may never come off without damaging the arms |

When I was assembling the bearings and seals I found that the seals kept poping out so I staked then in with a punch around the edge of the opening. I don't know if it was just the grease or the smooth surface of the inner diameter but those seals would not stay in at all.

8V 16V Turbo 740? What year? Hmm, $400 for the hubs, $100 for even solid rotors, $150 for a couple of calipers...... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif) They look like dual piston |

I can answer this one (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) yep, his dust seals caused him some greif as well.....all new hubs will be cured of this little "mishap" (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smash.gif) Those rotors "should" be just the normal early 911/914-6 rotors.........(up to '83.....wider Carrera rotors should bolt right up to the hub, however, I have no idea about the calipers due to the 4mm wider rotor) |

4 lug. can I use 4 lug hubs with 911 disks and calipers. If so, will 15x5.5 fuchs fit over them ok? I really want to keep a 4 lug look but want the bigger brakes. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif)

Thanks for clearing that up for me. I am getting my first 914 today, so I am not familiar with how they go together. I think though that $400+ for hubs is fair considering you can stilluse your 4lug wheels and tires. Does this set up require 911 struts? and wy use non-porsche calipers versus using porshce 911 calipers in this scenario? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/blink.gif)
