  • Aspire rear hub/brake assy.

    Does anyone know if the Aspire rear hub and drum assembly bolts onto the Festiva trailing arm? Can't see why they'd change the bolt pattern, but you never know.

    the aspire trailing arm has a swaybar so you may as well put the whole thing in

      It would be 10x easier to swap the entire bar... you'd be doing 6 bolts instead of swapping out the rest of the parts.

        True, it's easier, but I'm looking at the potential of saving a few bucks at the moment. The car budget is getting thin, and my current brakes and wheel bearings are SHOT.

        Really, this is kind of a worst case scenario kind of question. I'd rather swap in the whole mess, too.

          Now I am curious wether or not it you can use the aspire hubs on the festiva i-beam or not.

            I believe this was tried and only 2 holes lined up.

                  Ugh, Buck's in Calgary. They used to be a very good yard, bu the last few years have seen them decline very badly. They've got maybe 20 cars in the yard, and they're teetering on edge. Not terribly safe.

                  PnP usually runs about 2000 cars.

                    i like the locally owned and operated jy because they give you a discount or free small items as pnp you are charged for everything.

                      left to right the spindle stud mounting holes in the twist beam are identically spaced on the aspire and festiva but the bottom to top holes are about 1/8" farther apart center to center on the aspire beam

                        Now that's some precise information. Perfect!

                        As for PnP charging for every little thing....that's what your pockets are for.
