Front Hub

Postby Dimitris_GR » Fri 08.09.2006, 13:21

Hi Everybody
Does anyone know if there is a cross-reference for the front hubs?
They might come from Astra GSi, but I have no spares in hand to compare.
Thanks in advance!


PS
If anyone knows something please email me at

Thaaaanks!

The hubs are nothing like the Vauxhall/Opel hubs as the elan has double wishbones where as the vauxhalls have McPherson Struts (I have both cars)

Thank you Chris.
I am asking about the hubs, not the hub carriers, so, I might still have a bit of luck, because I can only find a Lotus hub for 335 euros :( instead of less than 100 (Astra)...

Well, YES, the front hub does come from the Astra GSi.

I finally bought one and it is on my baby!

I also need a front hub.

I live in the continent of GM but unfortunately, the M100 has EURO GM parts and that Astra does not exist here.
Who in Holland is a wrecker where I can get one so my daughter can bring it to me in Canada?

PS there are Pontiac Firebirds all over the place here with the headlight motors and controls in them.

What years?

This is the kind of info that needs to go into the Wiki Parts Cross-references by Vehicle Model

I recently had to get one of these. Any '92 to '98 Astra will do you if you're after robbing one from a breaker's yard - or if you can get a new one which I did from an independent parts place in Birmingham (£30 instead of the £120 plus VAT that the Vauxhall dealer wanted) then you're after a 33 splined Vauxhall hub.

Nice :D

After a little research I think I'm getting close to identifying the hubs by Pt No and manufacturer.

Please don't dash out and purchase one on this information, I think the information is correct but I need to tie up all the lose ends.
