So on the rear, what years J30 works. Because when I went to the yard earlier they had 3 92-93's and they all had integrated spindle/hubs.

So unlike the stock s13 style were you can take off 4 bolts and remove the actual spindle with the lugs and spline for the drive shaft, the j30s had a solid unit.

So my Q is this, do I swap the whole unit and bolt on all my brakes and suspension on to the j30 part. Or do I find a newer j30 that has separate spindle/hubs?

Hmm.

That gives me some ideas since I already have q45 brakes.

I need to re read up on the q45 diff/axle swap because I want stronger axles but I don't want to loose my kaaz.
