I want to order 5x114.3 hubs from mongo but I don't know what all is need in the swap. I googled this with no luck. what's the process involved? new rotors, calipers, etc? can I have my mechanic install these? any insight would be helpful. BTW this is for a lnf with brembos. I'm guessing this would also change the offset.

 

I'm pretty sure it's just switching out the hubs and nothing else.

 

Take the wheel off

Loosen the axle nut

Take the caliper and rotors off, rotors need to be drilled to the same pattern as the hub.

Unbolt the hub from the knuckle and remove. Most likely will need to rent a slide hammer from autozone.

Use the brembo how to for the lsj on ced's site as a how to. Its really easy.

 

just the hubs, redrilled rotors (or new ones if you can find the same specs off the shelf in 114.3), and wheels obviously

 

you can do it yourself with an afternoon and basic tools. Like they said, literally unplug and unbolt the old, put in the new

 

thanks for the replies guys. now off to the lsj brembo swap thread.

 

Ced has the instructions on their site under the brembo swap kit.

 

This easy.

Take off the wheel

Remove the axle nut

Unplug sensor

Remove caliper and rotor

Remove 3 13mm bolts for the hub

Depending on your cars condition you they will slide right out or need to be beaten out.

Reverse process and thats for the front. If you dont buy new bolts for the caliper and hub. Locktite the bolts.

For the rear

Remove wheel

Remove caliper and braket and also the rotor

Support the twisting beam on one side(or both if you have 2 jacks and do both sides at once)

Remove the lower shock bolt, Remove spring

Remove 4 13mm bolts

Pull hub out and unplug

Reverse Procedure to install

With that said you SHOULD replace the caliper bolts and replace the hub bolts(unless i saw your buying a brembo swap kit) You need to redrill you rotors to the bolt pattern. If your very good with measuring you can do it yourself but usually a machine shop will measure accurately and do it that way.
