Re: [Quantum Owners] Rear brake hub

2023-10-08 Thread julian



Hi

Thanks for catching up - all information is useful. Certainly this set 
up seems different! The donor was a Fiesta 1.6 Si so your observations 
make sense.


I think I have found a correct pair which list as Mk3 / Mk4 plus a 
variety of other small Fords. They look right and everything I have been 
able to get at and measure matches OK. I probably will not know now for 
sure until I strip the existing ones again. Hopefully that will be part 
of a rear end refurb - which will not be for a little while yet, I've 
got it back on the road and safe, but as ever lots more to do.


Regards

different? The kits are listed as FBK512, the listings do not give a 
Ford part number.

Hi

I've just replaced the bearings in the rear nearside hub on an H4 (Fiesta Mk3) 
and found that the inner bearing housing has been worn so that I was able to 
turn the whole bearing insert by hand before pushing it out. The section where 
it is set is larger diameter than the rest of the tube through which the shell 
has to be pushed into place. The new bearing is better than the old, but there 
is still a problem.

I cannot find anywhere that supplies replacement Fiesta 3 hubs. There are items 
listed but these do not include the brake drums - mine are integrated.

Does anyone know where a suitable spare may be found, or what else can be done?

Thanks

Re: [Quantum Owners] Rear brake hub

2023-09-28 Thread Jim Hearne
I’m pretty sure all the rear drums on the Mk3 Fiesta had separate drums and 
hubs, none were combined like the Mk2 Fiesta, are you sure the drum wasn’t just 
stuck to the hub ?

Also, when you do the rear hub nut up (It’s really tight) then it will clamp 
all the inner bearings together between the nut, the bearing inners and the 
rear of the spindle, there is no way for the inners to spin on the spindle 
unless the hub nut was loose.
So, it doesn’t surprise me if you could remove the inner bearings by hand or if 
there was slight play.
