Nova front hub size

[bazzap8389]

Do novas have different sizes where the wheel bearing goes in? I bought a wheel bearing kit and the bearings are 0.08" bigger than the bore where they locate. Are there two sizes or have I been sent the wrong bearings? If there's two sizes I'll machine it out to suit.

I had this issue too, there is a 64mm and a 66mm O/D bearing.
You will just have to measure what yours is and buy the correct one, or machine it to the correct size.
Im not sure what models of nova used which size bearing.

Ah I see cheers for that. I was given a 66mm one. I'll go get a 64mm to save the hassle of machining it.

64 is Corsa I think motor factors are thick sometimes

[dgbnova#1]

66 even

Aye, I've got to collect the 64mm one today. Don't think I'll have time to get it pressed in and out to the Bodyshop for 5 though.

Corsa had 66mm but also some nova did too

Most books list two sizes. I've had it while looking them up.

I'm sure all Novas only had the one size, well i've never found one that doesn't.
