so hubs should never wear out, only if something mechincal goes wrong? The reason why I ask is because I want to get a brake system where I can replace parts though local general auto stores.
I like the idea of going to the local autozone and getting replacment rotors and calipers.
also is billet stronger than iron? Well if you use a drum verus a billet hub would either really wear out. Like bearing bores wearing out or something, but didn't think so drums never needed much more than being replace for bad groves or just to be lathed. But, I know that aluminum suffers from fatigue from years of use, does billet aluminum have similar problems?
Hey while I got your guy's attention, what do you guys think of Lanners idea of making drums into hubs?
I know a lot of people don't like the idea of redrilling for 5x??? bolt paterns because of the lack of reinforcement, and then to cut the drum part off and to as it as a hub seems to be on the extreme side of things. Any one ever see or hear about this sort of modification? Safe?
thanks
