Ok so i drove the car home last night at 3 am and parked in my driveway. Later at 8 am i let the car coast off the driveway and went to turn left and the car went straight. WTF i said. so my car wont move and im blocking the court. So i try to drive the car up the driveway and i hit the curb a little. I jack up the car to inspect my tie rods but they were fine, and i check the passanger side and the wheel bearing went bad appartly.

So my bearing and my steering rack decided to poop on my chest today.... waht a freakin day. Now I have to find 300 dollars to get the parts

so anyone got a 5 lug wheel hub and/or steering rack they wanna sell?

300z fronts dont bolt up only rears.

what front hubs are you running? you may think about replacing the bearing not the entire hub, its cheaper.

im running the s14 ones and I tried replacing just the bearing. They cant do it, the inner race doesn't seem like it comes out

good to know.. I guess when I finally get around to doing my swap I wont bother with the fronts... guess I will have to find another source.

Hey RJ, I may be able to help you out. I may be pulling some front spindles from an s14 (if they are still around) this weekend. Which side did you say you needed? We need the spindles but have the hubs already. So if we have some in good shape I'll let you know.
