Hi guys, I've been reading some of tyhe posts concerning using the 74 + hub centric eared 911 rear hubs for a 5 lug conversion. Iv'e seen mentioned that one needs to use a 5mm spacer on the hub on the wheel side against the outter inner bearing race . My question is why the 5mm spacer instead of a 6mm spacer ?? 914 and earlier 911 use a 36mm wide bearing the later mentioned 911 used a 42mm wide bearing , what happens with the leftover 1 mm?? Does it stick out to be sqished up against the stub , will it not allow the hub / stub to fully seat ??As i have figured on using the inner races from the aforementioned 74+ hub bearing having them ground down on a surface grinder for squareness sake , just want to be sure of the thickness demention before the grinding to get the right thickness I need.
