Sierra drive shafts
iiyama - 27/12/06 at 08:19 PM

Hi all!
Ihave a 7" 3.38 diff and the associated drives shafts of a drum braked sierra. I have aquired the one piece bearing housing and calliper mounting from a disc braked car.

So...heres the questions....

What bearings will I need? Or is this a case of contacting a bearing manufacturer? Anyone else mated these components?

Cheers,

Ian

Ian,

Same set up as me but i have the original bearing carriers & hubs from the drum braked car, to this i have bolted a DAX caliper mounting plate in order to use the rear calipers, discs fit to the drum hubs same as they would fit to the disk hubs........ Not sure if the Disk braked hubs & carriers fit the drum braked driveshafts.....

Watcha Ash!

I know I can get the steel converters from DAX, well from anywhere really!

Was just trying to keep the weight down......
