Hub/spindle interchange question

[Cward]

Okay guys, Will a 94 ATX spindle and hub work on a 92 mtx??? As in will the mtx axle fit into the atx spindle if I swap them complete? Just curious as I picked up another project that needs a wheel bearing and have the 94 parts car lying around.

Yes, it will work, but, you will need to swap both sides, and you will need to swap the 94's calipers and brackets with the 94's knuckles was they are differnent.

Sweet, I was kinda thinking that was the case. Is there any advantage in brakeing?

If you use the '94 calipers and brackets then no, there won't be any difference in braking. On the other hand, with the '94 knuckles you're half way home to a '96 brake upgrade, so now would seem like a good time to consider it.

So, to finish the upgrade all I'd need is 96 calipers and brackets?? Hmmmm...I do work at a junkyard.

And '96+ rotors and pads.

Also, as far as I know, you can use the '94 calipers.

hmmmm...I'll have to do some more research!

Search for "96 brake upgrade" for all intents and purposes that's what you are doing.
