My bearing was completely destroyed before I pulled the thing apart (only the outer casing of the bearing remained inside the sleeve, basically fused in there), so the old style sleeve had to come out ...

Even if I could just buy something like that, I don't think it would have worked in my situation.

Hello, everyone, and happy 9/24 Day. I’m hoping you all can help me diagnose a transaxle noise.

The car is a 1978 with the four-speed. The noise occurs when the clutch is in and the car is in a ...

Thanks, guys. The rears really fill out the wheel well—reminiscent of a fat-tired 928. I’m not totally happy with how far the fronts stick out (second picture). The body really tapers up front and ...

For anyone else looking for four-bolt spacers, I am having https://www.motorsport-tech.com custom build a set for me. They were great in the order/spec process. They're machining to my preferred thick ...

Looks like I will need 20mm spacers (or 25mm to be safe). Can anyone suggest a vendor, especially in the US?

I've found several with m12 bolts and many that have undefined center bores (I can use ...

The wheels have arrived, but we have a problem I didn’t anticipate. The car’s hub center (spindle?) sticks out about 65mm, but the wheels opening into which the spindle inserts is about 46mm deep. ...

Yeah, I’m thinking 205/60r15 at this point. I’ll probably end up with a performance-oriented all season tire, so I don’t have to worry too much about temperature. Tire Rack is thin on selection ...

The wheels are en route. I've vacillating between 205/55r15 and 195/60r15 tires.
