Selling my KAD alloy front hubs.

Want to sell something? Here's the place to list it for free! (DIRECT SALES / SWAPS) No ebay links please.
Forum rules
For Sale Section Rules

PLEASE NOTE! Postings in this section are deleted automatically after they have not been looked at for 30 days.

1) This section is for advertising items that you have for sale. Not for the discussion of listed items. If you wish to debate the pro's & Con's of any item listed, please start a new topic in the appropriate section.

2) Please DO NOT post links to your ebay auctions. This section is NOT for the advertisement of your ebay auctions.

3) If you have a number of items to sell, post them in a single ad marked "Multiple Parts" or similar. DO NOT post many individual advertisements as this forces everyone else's listings down the page.

4) It is expected that any items advertised on the forum are described fairly & honestly. It is the duty of the seller to ensure that this is the case.

5) Items listed for sale should WHEREVER POSSIBLE* be offered with a purchase price, not asking for bids from members. If you wish to auction your item to the highest bidder I would suggest you use ebay & pay the associated fees.

6) This section is offered as a free service to enthusiasts. Any deals made are between the buyer & seller only. The MK1 forum takes no part in any transaction & the appearance of any item in this section is not a recommendation. I strongly suggest that both buyers & sellers are happy to proceed with a deal before any money or goods change hands.

7) It expected that people posting items for sale are "Active Members of this community". Any Adverts placed by members with a post count lower than 5 will be deleted.

8) The advertising of or soliciting for VIN tags, log books or any other vehicle identification documentation without it's associated vehicle is expressly forbidden. Any member breaking this rule will have his membership terminated with immediate effect.

9) If a moderator considers any postings in this section to violate either the spirit or word of these simple requests the MK1 Forum reserves the right to delete any posts without prior warning or explanation.

10) The posting of items for sale on the MK1 forum constitutes explicit acceptance of these simple rules.

11) Members posting items for sale MUST include a rough location in their profile.

It would be much appreciated if sellers could leave the sale price on adverts after the item has been sold. This acts as a good measure of current value for other sellers.

* In some cases it may not be possible for the seller to list items with a sale price. In this case, listings will be reviewed on a case by case basis by a moderator. The moderators decision will be final.

Selling my KAD alloy front hubs.

Post by CooperTune »

Still located Va USA, selling car and have removed as over kill parts. They come with the taper bearings and screw in ball joints. They are machined for std two bolt steering arms or the KAD three bolt arms. I'm asking $550 US for the pair. I'm willing to ship at cost. PM for pictures or to discuss. Steve (CTR)

I have not tried fitting a 7.5 disc over the KAD hubs. They were used with 8.4 single plane and KAD 4 pot calipers and alloy drive flanges. It will be no problem to test fit a set of 7.5 discs. I'll set them up and report back later today. Steve (CTR)

Thanks, you are correct, there is no way to fit 7,5 disc. While I did not take measurements, I'd be reluctant to try and machine one of both parts for clearance. I wonder if cutting down 8.4s to 7.5 or 7.9 would work inside a 10-inch wheel? Steve (CTR)

I have worked on a Mk2 Cooper S which had machined 8.4 inch discs and 4 Pot caliper's.

I didn't measure if they were 7.9 or 7.5 but as they where the same cast alloy caliper's i guess they were 7.5
And they fitted inside a 10 inch GB wheel
I promise i won't buy another MkI...

Thanks, I went back to shop and with new 8.4 drive flanges and 8.4 single plane disc it's clear machining the disc will work. I have plenty new 8.4s so having a pair done and offering as a set is an option. Again, that will cost more in shipping. Steve (CTR)
