I am in need of a front hub that will work for the passenger side of a 1967 belvedere II. I am hoping to find one that has already been converted to right hand studs... or has no studs at all and I can put right hands in it. (tried to remove studs to convert my hub and pretty well destroyed it) I have a 1970 challenger sitting around that my brother will be restoring and converting to disk front... can I steal the hub from it for now? will it work? I have researched the bearing part numbers and as long as the challenger has 10" or 11" brakes the bearing part number is the same so it leads me to believe that the hub should also be fundamentally the same. If this is not the case... then please help me find a used and or new replacement hub.
thanks,
David Everhart

I checked, and NAPA Auto parts has front drums for my '68 Plymouth Fury. It's worth a shot!

I have seen that I can get the drum from just about any parts store. But what I need is the hub itself... when you get a drum you get just the drum.. and you have to press your hub out of the old and back into the new. I cant really afford to convert the car to disk... even though I know that would be the best course to eliminate this issue. Does any one know if a challenger hub and drum will work?

On my Fury, my drum/hub are the same unit and bolt onto the spindle. I assumed that you had a similar situation.

i appreciate the suggestion... but I tried napa and when i look up the drum it comes just the drum ... I will be looking into scavenging the hub drum and all off my 70 challenger tomorrow. with any luck its a go and my bro can worry about getting the challenger back up and moving when he gets off his bum and restores it.

Im surprised theres no older wreckers - thats where I would get the part instead of possibly ruining another hub...Word of mouth wreckers are the best places
