S14 n Z32 spindle question - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

i bought the front s14 5 lug spindle and what i thought at the time was the rear spindl from an s14. turns out that the idiot sold me the rears from a z32. now im assuming i can just get a hub puller and take the hubs out the front spindle, but what about the rears? how can i get those hubs of if possible.

17mm x 4
if its TT ones, you got screwed.

19mm x4 , not 17mm.

No hub puller needed for the front.

Welcome to Earth, where we talk about this same shit every day for the past seventeen years.

sorry i dont think i was being clear enough. i bought the whole rear knuckle anyway to tell if its the z32 tt

Rear toe link mounting point:

bushing = NA
ball joint = TT

All TTs have HICAS, so there's a balljoint and tie rod in place of the toe rod.

sorry not sure what to look at, could you tell if it is from this pic?

projectRDM · 11-08-2006, 11:12 PM

That's an S14, apparently from the bottom of the ocean.

The Z32 upright is aluminum and has a fork style lower shock mount.

Bigballin · 11-08-2006, 11:29 PM

well it came with the z32 ebrake drums, but if its from a s14 thats great.

projectRDM · 11-09-2006, 09:03 AM

Actually I was wrong, the picture is pretty dim, hard to make out the back of the hub, and I was drunk.
There are no bolts holding the bearing assembly on, so those are J30 uprights. The J30 bearing presses into the upright instead of bolting on like the S13/14 Z32, etc. The ebrake assemblies are similiar and can be used.

And rent a sandblaster, you're going to need it.

Bigballin · 11-09-2006, 12:49 PM

so in other words i cant use them for my rear 5 lug convo....

projectRDM · 11-09-2006, 01:19 PM

No, where did you read that?

They're the exact same as the S14 parts, but the bearing is pressed into the upright instead of bolting on.

EXACT SAME

If you research a little you'll see we just fought about this with some other kid and brought up links a few days ago.

Sir · 11-09-2006, 01:52 PM

Shit, Russ schools me again in the bolt sizes

No wonder why it takes me 2x longer to do everything, i have to walk to the toobox more!!!! Hehe.
