Rear hub/stub/axle advice

[RyanNI]

Hi just joined and looking some advice... recently bought a home made car transporter, problem now is one axle has vauxhall hubs and the other has fiat... Question is what are they off


Bearing is built into the drum too... identical to these... but not!

I have got a complete mk2 punto hub drum brakes and wheel but the hub isnt the same

Any help appreciated

Can also supply a pic of the hub but because i am only new i cant post a link

You may be able to upload a pick to your gallery and link from there. Or cabntact one of the moderators who may be able to help.

But dimensions and a pic would be handy.

Wierd though, as surely the Vauxhall and FIAT hubs have different PCD (discounting Grande Punto, unless very new).

Sorry its not offset I'm worried about its where the hub bolts to the axle, I will almost have 5 posts and can post the picture then!

that the best pic you can do cant see much. i don't know of a fiat with bearing drums ive looked through some pictures of drums in the car sections i dont know and still not found any. are you sure its fiat?

Very like a punto drum I will try get pictures this evening

 

[dave]

puntos dont have a bearing in the drum

Sorry its not offset I'm worried about /snip/..........

I'm not worried about the offset (at this point!), but, if the wheel fits the hubs both sides, it's unlikely to be FIAT one side and Vaux the other -- the wheels simply wouldn't fit both.

All this assumes that it's not some wierd harold make it up as you go along match.

And leaf springs? Presuming dead axle?

Your right the flange where the wheel screws on comes away from the drum, I have tried the flange from a corsa d and it is identical... Although it doesn't go on the easiest, problem is whatever hub it runs I want to run the brakes of that car aswell so it just bolts on

corsa has a different size centre hole to fiat as well as pcd, you might be able to get a better idea of what its off if you measure pcd and centre hole and see what matches the list http://www.carlsalter.com/wheel_fitments.html
