Ok, so I'll spoil the bet;
Apparently for some unknown reason the Cobalt/LNF hub was given a unique part number, but it's the same part used on G6's ~ I got this information here.
http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/more...176&cc=1442862
This is the part that ZZP sells, and even on the RA site, the interchange shows 08-10 cobalts as well as G6's & malibu's

And you didn't already kknow this because??
They fire knowledgable people with spines, and hire lower paid know-it-all's who can't look up jack squat without full vehicle application information, and as soon as your vehicle deviates from 100% stock, it's "******-rigged" - and that's a quote.

The guy didn't believe me that the belt was 115 inch

I'll send an email to pro charger and see if this is the right belt and if there is something I am missing

I'm guessing that PnP hubs will be rusted worse than the ones you have

mine haven't been used in roughly four years;
The white car I have was written off about a month after I bought my car;
The guy never washed it, so salt sat...
I rinsed the car off after getting it in the garage, but by then there was over a year of neglect (and aprox 40,000km) on the car...

I bent one of my struts, and to make the swap easy, I swapped the whole assembly (spring and top) into my car;
YOu can easily tell which one I replaced, because his is rusty all over.

barlow.

iirc the other lot on 52nd is only for dropping off running cars.

Saw 1 G5 but that's it. Found a dozen throttle cable retaining clips, fuel relay cover and a couple fuse panel covers that were in pretty good shape

were there any '05-'10 G6's, or '04-'12 Malibu's?

Those cars use the same hubs as me.

Back to the kijiji thing, I would still like to find another nice white cobalt to "rebuild" this one with... :/

nope.
2009's, especially canadian cars with rpd's are quite rare;
iirc the rpd wasn't allowed to be ordered on canadian cars until the fourth quarter of the model year.
