Re: [FWDLK] 64 Dodge 880 Front Hub



Oops,

Brain fart, the 880 is not the same as a Sport Fury however the Scarebird conversion looks interesting, anyone have any comments on it.

Hello,

I have a set of hubs from my 64 Sport Fury but they are too far back in the shed to get to them easily today.  I can look and measure them tomorrow. 

HOWEVER
I have what I think is a better solution but more money - go disc brakes.  There are a number of options from different companies that I am sure others on this site will have good suggestions.  The down side is cost the BIG advantage is in stopping power and switching to a dual  master cylinder for safety.

I am not suggesting any brand however I have the following and they both work well:

1964 Sport Fury from The Right Stuff Detailing  http://www.getdiscbrakes.com/disc-brake-conversions
1963 Belevedre from Stainless Steel Brakes  http://ssbrakes.com/

I heard these also work well but no personal experience:

I’m hoping someone on the list can point me in the right direction to locate
a front hub for my son’s 64 880.
These came from the factory with 11 x 2.5 brake drums pressed onto the wheel
studs.
We don’t need one with a drum per se, as they often have been removed from
the hub.

According to our machine shop, the bearing race has spun in our hub so we
can’t just install a new one.
The stud holes in our hub are elongated. This is why we got a machine shop
involved. The plan was to install oversize studs. The spun race threw us a
curve.

I believe these hubs are the same as 63-4 Chrysler. None of the yards around
us have much in the way of old cars anymore.
