Wanted, Sierra rear hubs, disc brake type, for a 7.5 diff.

Hi all,
Has any got any Sierra rear hubs, to go with a 7.5" diff and 105mm shafts?
I'm not bothered about the brake discs and calipers, but they're there, I'll have them if the price is right.

Cheers Frank.

as far as I'm aware the 108mm CV's are only used on the 2wd Sierra Cossie
(these also have lugs to suit 273mm discs - which can be an issue for smaller wheels)

all the other sierra's, Granada's and Scorpio's used the 100mm CV's - so it limits you choice a bit




one other possibility is the BMW 3/5 series - lots of them use 108mm lobros...

Yes, it's a cosworth diff and shafts that I've got.
Do the BMW hub carriers bolt onto the swing arms, like the Sierra?
I thought the bearings were pressed into end of the arm on the BMW.

yes I think that's right - but have a look at the rear uprights / bearing carriers that GKD use - overall I think it looks neater than the bolt-on sierra version

as for the cossie hubs, if no one here has any they come up on ebay every now and then - but the cosworth name does seem to add a fair bit to the price
