  • wheel bearing question

    By any chance does the aspire and Capri use the same front wheel bearings? I bought the four for my Capri hubs and took them to the machinist, after packing them. Well it turns out someone let old bearings wear to crap on the hubs in the past and spun them. New bearings would just wiggle on the hub.

    So I'm thinking of getting an aspire front setup and was wondering if my $65 in wheel bearing parts would work...

    According to rockauto.com, they take the same front bearings.

      Hmm so now the question is do I stick with the Capri swap or go to the aspire swap. The machinist said he could put a sleeve over the hub and make it work but its more or less a bandaid. If I go aspire I have to find wheels and tires... I have everything for the Capri swap.
