Stripping Hubs


  ---UPDATES ARE ON MONDAYS---
Today I stripped the hubs of all the old parts that aren't needed any more.  Gone are the small CV joints and little ball bearings!  I just found out you can take a larger "S" CV joint and roller bearings and they will fit in the hub if you use an external drive flange and not the internal one like the old drum brake set up.  Much stronger and is needed to handle the extra horse power and torque of the VTEC engine.


Next is to clean these hubs up and possibly give them a new coat of black paint.  There is no need to pop off the arms as I replaced all the joints 5K miles ago.
