    need help with drum hubs garage points opportunity

    I am using 74 maverick drum spindles and hubs. The problem is that the hubs are both replacement ones that were changed at one point with the drums. This causes a huge problem as they are not conformant in size, even to each other. So, the MS cobra kit adapter rings slide on and off of them. Does anyone have any spare hubs that will fit or interchange (either cheap or need to catch up on garage points), OR have a set of oversize adapter rings?   My stuff has been sitting at a machine shop for 6 months...tired of runaround.  Thanks, mike

    How loose are the adapter rings?  Maybe there is an easier solution than replacing the hubs.

    I do have a pile of used hubs, but I typically sell them with my kits.  I know that is not the price you are looking for.

    Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.

    Do you have any spare rings? As these slide on and off like bracelets. I distorted them some trying to swabs them around hub, but they don't stay on rotors or hubs after you seat them.

    RTV, JB weld, or are they that sloppy and not concentric?
