Ok, I am doing the j30 5 lug front hub conversion on my s13 (the whole press j30 bearing out, machine new retaining clip groove, press in s13 front bearing) but cannot find any info on what year j30 to use the hubs off of. The writeups I find online must all be the same source, because they all used hubs from a 95 or they don't mention a year. The problem is while calling junkyards, the 95 j30 had a model change mid year, and supposedly the front hubs are different - one thru Sept 1995 and one from october 1995. I was hoping someone who has done this swap, or knows more about the j30, can tell me what year I need to look for (ie pre or post Sept/Oct 1995) and if not, maybe what the difference is between the hubs and if either of them will work. Thanks.

Try a parts system look up and see if they come back with two part numbers.

problem I have is that most of the time the itself isn't listed. I guess i could check bearing part numbers and make sure they are the same.
