Found some reconditioned VITARA hubs on eBay for £60 as long as I sends old hubs back to him?

Wondered if these will fit my JIMNY?

Thanks, Andy

yep they will fit with Martins adapter plates but you have to send him manual freewheeling hubs back as his business is refurbishing them

He doesn't say that the hubs you send back have to be Vitara ones :evil: :evil:

They will fit, I have Vitara ones on my Jimny. You just need the adaptor plates.

I won some SJ AISIN ones on ebay tonight and I am going to get them chemically stripped and sorted at work when they turn up!

I will order some plates from you now and then hopefully I'll be away!


Martin is there anything I need to look out for / anything that I have to change when I refurb my hubs?

Thanks, Andy

JUST PURCHASED SOME ADAPTER PLATES AND BOLTS FROM THE BIG JIMNY SHOP!

Any advise before I strip the AISIN Hubs?

Cheers

dont put too much grease in when you're rebuilding as it will make the switch difficult to turn and stop the locker locking properly
