Front hub Q & A
ok i was drilling out of of the stripped screws out of the rotor to take off. when i was drilling the threading got messed up.
Where can i got to get a new fron hub at a decent price <new one> auto zone.
and do you think i can just rethread the hole?

if you mean the screw that holds the brake rotor to the hub?
Lots of people don't even use those two screws to hold on the rotor. some rotors don't even have them.

wtf? The rotors are just placed on the hub and not screwed down? That's crazy. Try a junkyard. You'll probably have to get the whole knuckle and remove the hub later.

*shrugs*yup the last cheapy rotors i got to get me to the brake swap didn't have holes. Lots of people on here don't even use them if they had the holes. I have been reading TONS of brake threads.

Re: Front hub Q & A (gunnis)
I went up to honda and the techs there said when they strip the screws the don't even replace them...... good new i don't have to source a new front hub.
BUT....... when my rotor fly's off and kills several pedestrians i will let you know.

don't sweat it,you don't need them... I work as a honda tech and when they break I never replace them,the lugs hold everything in place,
