Need a New Front Hub

For my Dax Std Chassis

Am I right in saying that it would be from an XJ6 Jag

I need to get hold of one before Wednesday so that I can get the car to Silverstone on Friday

Any ideas on places to try to get one, local if possible

There has been a few cases now, me included, where the paint on the inside of the wheel has had to be scraped back to get the wheels to fit over the hub

It probaly is just paint that needs removing but if you really need a new hub try these people first.

Nice chap called John and he is based near us in beare green, near Dorking.

He supplied my new rear diff and has loads of parts in stock and seems fairly good value.

Tried that and still don't fit

I need to either machine the hub or buy a new one. The current one has various ridges in places where they should not be

I thought it was only me who was unlucky. Good of Image to change the spinner design & manufacture them ft as well.
Brian hope you get it sorted for the weekend, Tony.
