bumpstop325 0 Report post Posted April 12, 2006 please remember the e30 front bearings are a whole hub replacement. It is an unusal setup, yes. but its is just the way they built these beasts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smokenbaby 0 Report post Posted April 12, 2006 yes Grants was the complete hub. The guy we used to get cheap bearing etc from has now changed jobs so the hook up is no longer there. Just when I was going to start a new Race Car project, worst timing ever. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
