Well the motor and tranny are in. Here a pic. Chuck

Thanks for the info guys. It was Tom's Differential that told me the rear hubs are thicker and stronger for the later models, I sent them mine to setup some offset trailing arms and was told I should upgrade to the later c-3 because the centers had more metal (less hollow in the center) than...

Night and day difference, I like it alot!

I have been told that the later (c-3) vettes had stronger hubs then the 65 did. What years had the better hubs? From what I was told the inner hub part is filled more (smaller opening with more metal). Thanks Chuck

Thanks for the comments, should have the motor & tranny in tonight. So far I have the vbp a-arms, qa1 double adj shocks, vbp front spring, steeroids manual steering, alum. ssbc calipers, slotted rotors, and rock valley SS tank w/ intank walbro fuel pump and stock sending unit which will be used...

Getting ready to install engine and tranny tonight, here the progress so far.

I think I have a couple, let me check the garage and I will let you know tonight. I also have a-arms, stock power steering setup, complete 327 engine (not original) with 4 speed and shifter. Chuck

For any that might run into the same problem: Both bolts are suppose to be 70mm long. Steeroids shipping out correct length right away. Originals were 1 70mm and 1 80mm. Also I had a problem with the 70mm bolts not tightening up still. Ended up being a spacer that is in the boot that's suppose...

On step 6, attaching the tie rod bracket to the R&P unit does the 2 bolts bottom out before tightening up on the lock washers. Seems to me if you have lock washers it needs to tight up on them before hitting bottom. Also the depth of the threads in the R&P unit seems the same but the 2 bolts are...

Hey, Where's the rest of the story? Thanks for the shots it time. Chuck

How much?

I have 65-68 disk brake hubs, rivets already removed and media blasted in good shape. Also have new bearings and seals. $380 plus shipping for the whole setup. Shipping should be about 20. email at Wilkinshc@msn.com or post here. Thanks Chuck

I believe I understand what you are saying, I presume I was right in my thoughts. Since the ps side had alot of shims in it I need the shaft turn so the offset is to the outside so I will need less shims to get it back the stock location and the Driverside will be turned to the inside since...

Thanks for the answer guys, I figured maybe so but was hoping, just hoping you can purchase separately. Thanks Chuck

I have been looking thru the catalogs and don't see any one who sell just the hub with out the rotor. Anybody know? Thanks Chuck

Thanks for the advice. Chuck

Dave, I had stock a-arms previously and no installing the tubular a-arms from VBP which have offset shafts, stock shafts are centered. So if I install the VBP shafts with the offset towards the engine it puts the ball joint outward more or positive camber then the stock shafts. If turned 180...

I called VBP and they were not much help on installing the upper A-arms. Basically install them, once all together (restoration all done) check it and if not right take apart and turn the shafts. But I was hoping to get it close now instead of taking it all apart once the body is back on. Is...

HEY Don't those guys know the c-2 is suppose to be in front.;)

Thanks for the reply, I thought it might be the seal but I didn't see a seem. Must be the years of crude. I checked your site out, I will keep you in mind it the future. I plan on sending these out to Tom's Differential, I plan on using his offset trailing arms with upper control arms, 35...
