So on the above, my "SKF" Fbody hubs were not any better than the Timkens. One of them flung grease out the backside.
Hoping to do the conversion this summer...
ONE spare hub? Psshhh with these SKFs I'll have FOUR! Two Timkens and and the Two factory originals off my car. Anyone that has seen me unload the truck this year knows I bring enough spares for...
Went to my local NAPA store and compared their premium hubs to my hubs, and answered my few questions
1. SKF makes these particular hubs in Korea (The SKF box clearly said MADE IN KOREA)
2. Some...
This is the thread about the BR901386 hubs that got my attention:

I might be onto something, need time to research and test this out unless someone here already figured it out.
The late C4 corvette guys figured out that our 4th gen fbody hubs bolt up to their...
Post up some pics!
I'm a sucker for shiny new parts.
Well, I haven't found anything on the web about massive C5 bearing failures, if I were to buy/make a pair of Dulaney's adapters I may roll the dice and try a pair of Corvette Timkens with the 3yr...
Jim, my bad I went back and re-read some of your posts; guess the regular C5 bearings may or may be a crapshoot...
I've got more than my own fair share of car/driving problems to deal with this so...
Jim,
Not doubting that the cost of your setup is worth it, my concern is if we try to push a clarification or RCR, that cost level may not sit well with the others in CMC; as such I'm just...
While I agree with the cost savings over having to repeatedly buy new hubs, $1200 is a bit steep for the CMC crowd, but as it sits it is the only proven solution outside of someone stepping up and...
Took a look at the corvette bearings. Looks like a solid setup; how much for those adapters Dulaney?
Also how are the "regular" C5 hub offerings (Timken, Delco, etc) holding up compared to the...
The hub adapter you guys are talking about, there's a similar solution out there as well that may or may be cheaper; bunch of guys came up with an adapter plate design you can have made, then you...
I've heard Timken is as good as it gets.
I bought a set of Timkens from Autozone and am getting play in them after 2-3 events. I pound my ARP studs out of them, pull the original studs back in,...
