I just pulled the trigger on 5 lug 911 style 15" flat Fuchs and need to purchase a 5 lug conversion kit like Eric offers/offered. If Eric is no longer in business, I still need 2 5-lug bossed hubs, and 2 5-lugged front rotors.
Any help getting a response from Eric, or locating another vendor with these pieces is appreciated. |

Just give him a ring. He is around. I think he just stays as busy as a 1 arm paper hanger. He has my trailing arms right now doing all sorts of things to them.

PMB was just a cover for Eric's CIA work... He had infiltrated the Mormon Church and found that they had an illegal lottery set up to decide where the young men go for their missionary work... Justice has it's servents and Eric was just one among many... I mean let's face it... No straight man wears salmon shirts! It had to be for his cover.
In any event, he will no longer be masquerading as a small business schlep... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Damn, you shouldn't have blown his cover - there is still yet so much more to be 'uncovered' behind the iron gates of The Church. And just when he was blending in so well... |

I do. There is someone who wants the hubs though. The rotors are available though. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Just browsing his catalog. He refers to 'ring bosses' on the 5 bolt conversion parts. Is that part of the hub or the stud?

I think he welds the ring bosses on the hub then presses the studs onto the boss/hub. Makes a very secure mounting surface for the stud. Very nice work. I've got a set of his hubs on my green 74. |

I've had luck sending him an e-mail and he DOES call back if requested.
However, I think he goes off fishing or racing and may not see the e-mail for a couple days. Wes V |
