Re: [Quantum Owners] Rear brake hub
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.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Rear brake hub
The rear hub nut is done up to 184 to 214 lbf ft Jim From: jul...@cityaudioservices.com Sent: Thursday, September 28, 2023 7:08 PM To: quantumowners@googlegroups.com Subject: [Quantum Owners] Rear brake hub 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.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Rear brake hub
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.
