question about hub assemblies
« on: 27 May 2012, 10:24 »
are the 16v bearing carriers for mk2's the same as mk3's?
posing the question - could you fit 4x100 hubs to mk3 16v bearing carriers for a brake upgrade?

NO you need sub frame and wishbones all of it!
If it was that easy I would have done it so many times by now  :grin:

I would say clearance the Mk3 is wider so using OEM sub frames and drive shafts would cause major clearance issues?
