Not enough people would buy the hubs to make it worthwhile. I made hubs for awhile and then gave up. Almost everyone who ever contacted me about hubs wanted custom offset or some other change made to the hub and they wanted it a price which was lower than my manufacturing cost. Not exactly any reason for me to subsidize everyone else's project car when I have a project of my own to work on so I stopped making hubs.

I guess locating drum spindles looks to be the easiest way to get it done for a large rotor. 71 Barracuda 383 4spd (500ci) 69 camaro 598, NOS 69 barracuda bbc procharger 77 t/a 6.0 turbo project 78 t/a 400 77 corvette 1983 hurst/olds 03 Viper 79 360 macho 71 demon 360 78 Warlock 5.7 hemi project

I ave one of andy's hubs from his 13" kit, if I remember it's 3/4" longer so you can run the stock mustang wheels because they are cheap like borshe

They bearing size will be stock (for the 73 knuckle) I presume?

Do tie rod and ball joints match to the e body? 71 Barracuda 383 4spd (500ci) 69 camaro 598, NOS 69 barracuda bbc procharger 77 t/a 6.0 turbo project 78 t/a 400 77 corvette 1983 hurst/olds 03 Viper 79 360 macho 71 demon 360 78 Warlock 5.7 hemi project

I used a 1/2" spacer, http://www.summitracing.com/int/parts/aaf-all44121/overview/ ball joints upper and lower match the body. You have to slightly machine the lower ball joint holes to match the e-body ball joint. Outer tie rod is a Howe quick bump kit.
