I want to fit some capri hubs ( i have them and it looks feasable) to the minor to get a 4x108 PCD.
To do this I need to know the dimensions of the standard minor bearings, can anyone help?
I especially need to know internal dia. and the width of both front bearings so I can look up and see if there is a "standard" wheel bearing avaliable off the shelf
The best figures I can come up with are as follows-----outer front bearing 0.550 thick/wide, shaft diameter 0.668. Inner bearing ? thick/wide, shaft diameter 0.983. I measured the stub axle to get the diameters and I only had the outer bearing to get the thickness from.
Both the Minor front wheel bearings are metric series, which is why the imperial dimensions look a bit odd.
These are the two bearings:
Inner 7205B 25mm ID 52mm OD 15mm Wide
Outer 7303B 17mm ID 47mm OD 14mm Wide
They are angular contact ball bearings, and were originally 'face adjusted', which means a closer tolerance on the thickness. Most of the commonly avaliable bearings toady are not face adjusted, which is why there are problems getting them to fit as they should.
