yeti132 Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Can anyone tell me what I need to fit front commodore front hubs to a Ascona please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Abbott Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 The hubs require machining out and new inserts machined and sweated into the hubs to suit the manta bearing races. Probably cheaper to buy a set of TJM 5x120 aluminium hubs as they are lovely too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ascona400r Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Have a set of commodore 5 stud hubs here for sale if anyone needs a set. Already on the standard Manta stub axle so basically bolt these on. You need to get a set of 400 steering arms as the Commodore bolt on arms are no good. I had one 400 steering arm but i had to buy another set of genuine 400 arms just to get the one i needed. And was lucky to get them at £400 for the pair.

yeti132 Posted February 1, 2016 Author Share Posted February 1, 2016 Thanks Kevin I got some hubs from TJM but struggling to find some brake discs for them so brought the commodore hubs thought they would be a easy fix the joys of classic cars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ascona400r Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Sorry read post wrong - thought you were fitting the Commodore stub axles too.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Abbott Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 What brakes do you want to use? The hubs TJM sells I'm pretty sure are drilled for 4x98 PCD standard discs, why you would use standard dics I don't know but at least it gives a bolt pttern to work with to use something bigger like a cosworth disc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
