And now need front hubs

Can any one help me locate these

Thanks

You can get them at any local Pick Your Part. I would get them from the PYP, then get them powder coated. Should not be that hard to obtain.

Here's a quote from the ad you linked:

You can call a Motorsport Sales Technician, who will be happy to search for a set for you, or you can locate your own.

So, with that in mind, I'm going to throw out a crazy idea that maybe if you call and talk to a Motorsport Sales Technician, that technician may be able you find the hubs you need.

I have a penchant for the obvious.

Now if there is some reason you do not trust the help you could receive from Motorsport, you could look at ads on any number of Z car websites to find auto dismantlers/junkyards/whatever you want to call them that have early Z cars.

That is the obvious but they are no help. They said they dont have any and i was on my own so i thought i would ask here. the Pick Your Part is a good idea but i am on the east coast. Have called several local yards but no luck, but will keep trying

which hubs you need, I know of a 79 or 80 300Z with rear discs locally. If this is what you need I can put you in contact with source.

You might try getting in touch with Roger. He's busy, so you have to be persistent. You're not going to have much luck going to a junkyard unless you drive up to Virginia.

Thanks Steve

I will keep trying to call Roger. No awnser and the voice mail is full.

i prefer the arizona z car brake kit, i think its about the same price but i don't know if you need new hubs for that.

I would try the Zbarn-It's a one person operation, so leave a message and you will get called back. There is more stuff available than is listed on the website, so call, even if the stuff you need isn't listed.
