Re: Anyone near Bristol that can help?

will have to double check for callipers but I definitely have everything else. Rear Disc conversion is only a nice to have at the moment so calipers not necessary at this stage. To get it rolling I only need the Hub and Stub Axle, how many of my hard earned Great British Pounds would it take to get...

Re: Anyone near Bristol that can help?

Any local motor factors should sell kits. If you aren't having any luck I have a few spare hubs with good bearings in so it would just be a case of picking one up from me, will also save you knocking out the old bearings and refitting, as it happens I'll be in bath at work and in bath all evening s...

Re: Anyone near Bristol that can help?

Cheers Scottie.

Have spoken to the guy selling it who has done a bit more investigation and it appears it is just the wheel bearings.

Is there anywhere in Bristol or close I can get some bearings so I can fit them there and then and drive it home.

Cheers Sam
