the billet Aluminium hubs provided by Wilwood are a nice piece, however it was difficult getting hub seals to match the hub/spindle (nonetheless I found some & bought a few sets spares!). Here's a shot of the hat/rotors together and safety wired. Discs obviously only rotate 1 direction so they have to be on the correct side. We mounted the caliper bracket in a way that also has a large bolt going into the upper part of the spindle as added strength to that welded area. I am still considering swapping the spindles for one-piece units which may mean new caliper brackets (arrggghh !!$$). That's why I haven't yet made dust shields to cover the exposed area at the centre of the hub.. which I plan to do.
