Before Xmas I posted some trepidation about replacing a front hub bearing
assembly with one made for a 5er or 6er. Have to pull the ABS gear from
both the new and the old and press one from old worn out hub onto new.
Salesman recommended it. Cost WAY less than purchasing an E30 M3 hub ($82
v. $280).
Turns out this was excellent advice. Gears came off/on easily and things
are all fine. (One additional thing. Measure how far gear was pressed
onto worn hub before removing it, so you'll know when you've got it
correctly mounted on new. Isn't any "stop.")
I know many of you have expressed difficulties with advice/service from
Eurasian. But this was from them, and it was solid.
Happy New Year to all.
