[ventedrib]

Hy I'm a newby to this site but not a newby teener. I saw some billitt hubs on here i think that were 4bolt hubs that would exept 911 vented disk. Has anybody tried these with the bmw 320 calipers it should work I know a mid 80's bmw had vented rotors right.

Eric, you have posted this a couple of times about larger spindles. Can you share with me any spindle failures with a 914 strut? I have never heard of any.

Just saw this... never said that 914 spindles fail and I have no dog in this fight either. Here's exactly what I said:

If you want to go 5-lug a 911 front end is a better deal. Less expensive and larger spindles.

I've had 914 bearings fail and I've had my 911 bearings fail. The 911 simply has a larger spindle and is spec'd with larger bearings. Even the 914-6 has the larger spindles and bearngs. That's one of those areas where you can't go wrong adding a larger bearing and spindle, especially with todays modern tire technology or if anyone will be putting wider tires on a 914 (not that they would do that... just hypothetically speaking). You also have 3" and 3.5" caliper spacing options. Again, all for probably less money than the hub set-up. A couple of SC struts on the Bird Board will probably go for around $300-400 clams.

To be clear; I said it was a "better deal"... and it is. Seems like a no brainer to me?

Sounds like a leading question. Why do you ask?
