I had another rear hub bearing fail at Donington this weekend - pitched me off at Hollywood in the middle of a melee.
Rather than repair what I believe to be a suspect ally upright I’m looking at the options to upgrade.
Any thoughts on the relative merits of steel motorsport uprights vs Eliseparts GT upright or any other options? Also any thoughts on sourcing?
I have the steel Lotus Motorsport uprights on my car and I have never had any bearing issues. One thing to consider though is the standard rear brake callipers wont bolt onto the motorpsort rear hubs. They have radial mount fixings so that you can mount the front callipers on the rear.
HTH
Sean…
Thanks - I’m using Hispec 2-pots with radial mounts. Bigger issue is the toelink mounting - I have the Lotus double-shear ally brackets on the standard upright and don’t really want to go to single shear mountings.
