[96lt1]

hey guys, i have an 89 with a bent right rear hub. i called autozone and they cant get it. if i start lookin in a junkyard, will the SLO hub work?? any info appreciated.

thanx

Sean

p.s. how hard r these to change?

Rear hub? Do you mean brake drum? I heard the 89's have a selaed rear bearing assembly inside the drum. If so, I think SLO hubs will work.

no not rear drum, the SHOs have rear disc. i am talkin about the hub assembly, it has the lugs on it and the bearings in it. that part is bent, i need to replace it.

thanx

Sean,
You will have to look for another '89 SHO rear hub, because I do not think the newer ones or general models directly interchange. I have a pair of '92 rear hubs really handy, but they may not be worth the trouble due to the different bearing style. I also have a '89 parts with intact ones, but you are better off finding something local. It is really easy to take off, having a big enough socket. Sorry.

Come and pick one off of my parts '89 and I will cut you a damn good deal, like buy me Toxic **** bean burrito deal. Look, and then get in contact with me. Seems stupid having to travel two hours for a simple part, but sometimes you have to.

The rear hubs for Slos with drums and SHOs with disks are the same part for 89. Just beat the drum off the hub. I have 89 SHO rear hubs,and 88 wagon rear drum hubs out in the garage,,same part. Note that 89 is in a class all by itself, no rear parts will interchange with 90 and up.
