Replacement k20 hub

[kenny78]

Does anyone have experience with the ac delco "advantage" replacement hubs? The inner race on one of my hubs is too large for the standard race and am having no luck with local junkyards.

Anyone? How about a place to purchase a good used hub? I don't have access to sale forum here and the local yards are picked through.

@HotRodPC may have suggestions in OKC. @RetroC10Sport is in the wrecking yard scene in his neck of the woods. Also, there’s partshotlines.com. Just make sure you call the yards and pelt them with any questions you have and ask for pictures.

What part of OK are you in Kenny? You working on the front or the rear hubs? Which year model of truck are you working on? 14 bolt semi float, full float? Dana 44 or 10 bolt?

Any pics of what you're working on?

Sorry, didn't mean to be vague. 1982 10 bolt 8 lug front hub. I am in Vinita but travel to Tulsa regularly.

The inner bearing race fell in and out with probably .020 or so play. I didn't measure. I peened the hub material and applied liberal red lock tite as a band aid. This is my work truck so I had to get it back together.

I have 4 sets of hubs. 2 the old style externally splined big bearing and 2 the newer style internally splined ones. I don't know what they're normally going for but shipping won't be cheap. If you can't anything else I could be a last option.

I think they have raybestos hubs on rockauto...

 

[HotRodPC]

Damn, you need 8 lug. I finally got a used set to convert my 6 lug and can't give those up. I'd have plenty if it were 6 lug. Are you on Facebook? There's a Sooner State Squarebodies group. You might ask on there or I can. And there's Sooner State Squarebodies Off-Road.

I went ahead and posted a Wanted 8 lug 10 bolt hub in the Vanita to Tulsa area. We'll see if someone hits on it for you.

Thanks Hotrod, I am very new to Facebook. I put in requests to join those groups. Driving my square for work everyday I probably should network with other enthusiasts.

Thank you

Rockauto is where I saw the delco one. I am sure they are the same manufacture. Do you have any experience with the raybestos?

Yes 3/4 ton front hub. I am aware of how to obtain team on rock auto but was interested if they are dimensionally acceptable

sadly I can't say at this time but I was planning on picking up a pair in the future to do a swap on my setup. I figure you could maybe get ahold of rockauto and speak to their customer support and ask? Might not hurt to try... That or Raybestos.
