Hi

Can anyone post dimensions of an "Ideal" front hub. Height between top and bottom ball joint, offset top to bottom etc. Then if anyone is looking at something other than the Sierra they will have dimensions to work to.
My current "flavor" is to use a Nissan 200SX (Silvia). The front hubs here pose a problem in that they steer from the back not the front, the strut is fastened to the inside top of the hub with two lugs and not 'plugged in' as on the Sierra.
I should be able to sort out the top ball joint without too much of a problem, not sure on the steering attachment yet, maybe a fabricated arm of some sort. Got the manual for the car at least, so have some idea of what the bits look like.

Regards

Chris
