Free wheel hubs

<< < (4/4)

LP32:
Well today I got a chance to remove the hub. its not snapped or stuck, someone has done better than that. There is no clutch or anything like behind the end cap, just a length of radiator hose or the like,I guess just to keep it in lock and stop the free wheel. So now on the lookout for a hub. I have been to the local scrap yard and my qusteion is what other hubs from what other vehicles will fit. They wanted £70 for a pair of untested Diahatsu auto hubs. Thanks

Our local didnt spot the pair that I had in my hand were freewheelers :) £20 for the pair. Work a treat too.

StuartL:
I've heard that the auto hubs cause problems in the constant forward/reverse  of extreme off roading.  Is this accurate?

Reading what the label said on my t-case I could see that making sense, someone must have tried em though.
