So about a month ago I was thinking of ways to make my firebird faster without adding horsepower. One of the ways was to reduce rolling resistance by changing wheel bearings. Well as of today I am forced to actually do it. I need a front hub, does anyone know of a performance hub assembly?

Re: hub assembly
I didnt figure so, just wanted to know if there was a difference. Maybe a packable bearing instead of a sealed hub.Team NoVa

Re: hub assembly
You would need a new bolt on spindle to replace the hub,then you would need new rotors the bearings and seals.Originally posted by flamingchicken View Post
Your wheels would be sticking out past the fenders.
Sure you could set the preload looser on the bearing but the amount of drag would be insignificant.
No need to re-invent the wheel,just buy some new hubs and get some front skinnies for the track.Comment

Haven’t done anything on the Camaro, but put LEDs on my truck headlights . And my oil pressure sensor went out on the truck so going to fix that this...4 days ago -
