XT6 Hubs???? A few Questions

Post by Gannon » Wed Dec 07, 2005 5:07 pm

Has anyone ever imported, sourced or converted to XT6 hubs?
I like the idea of being able to put liberty or impreza wheels on my soob and if parts are easy enough to come by, it would be a lot easier than re-drilling and machining our hubs to fit other wheels.

it is quite a simple mod, as outlined on the usmb.

All opinions are welcome


Cheers

As above.

Pictures would be good as well. A simple shot of the hub alone would be tops.

I did it about 5 years ago.

Cost me about $1600 to have - Hubs, driveshafts, brakes, rear arms, hubs and brakes delivered.

They came from NZ.

Honestly, there is far better ways to skin this cat...

Please watch before posting!

Yeap. $1600 has answered all the questions I need to know.
