Default front hubs, are they all the same

are the front wheel hubs different for each engine or could I get a hub from a 1.8 and fit it to my 2.5.

no 2.5s in the scrappy up here but plenty of 1.8 and cdts


wheel bearing is really noisy and was wanting to get a spare hub to leave with the garage to press a new bearing into, so I can keep the car on the road in the mean time.

Blatant post hijack here, but its not often Andy posts. So here goes, what are the differences in the shafts model to model Andy? Are they just length differences, or strength as well?

Was having a blonde moment then, for some reason I read minimutlys post and thought he said there, when he said here



Anyway i presume by that reply that the driveshafts at the hub end are all the Same with the size and amount of splines.

Another off topic post, but Atlas on Jackson Road, St Helens have a few 75s in.
Bit of a drive, but last time I got an amazing haul of parts for my cars.

All car parts blackpool on vicarage lane ( pot luck most of the time as to what they have in stock) and there's another on poulton industrial estate can't remember what it's called think it ratcliffe & son.
Down side to these two places is they won't let you have a walk around and remove stuff yourself and not always the best selection of cars.

I end up going down to Warrington most of the time as there are 2 good old style scrappy there that let you walk around and remove it yourself, cheap as well so worth the trip down
