So I finally got around to ordering the rear hubs! I was measuring them and just wanted a second opinion on them being the correct ones. See pic

Where did you get these? I know Rockauto had them on clearance for $50 each a while back. Either way, they are the right ones. Knock 3 of the studs out. screw the dsm rotor down with one lug nut and drill away.

Also just to be safe, you may want to try them on your car or at least measure the inside of the bearing. Just to make sure they aren't expo hubs.

OK will do.

I forgot to ask, where can I get some brake pads for the rear calipers?

Pretty much anywhere, they are the same as 1g dsm rear pads.

Wish I would have known some of this stuff before I did my swap. I'm actually running dsm knuckles and hubs on the front of the car right now. I am using the Yoshifab camber plates, which are pushed all the way in. I want to lower the car about another few inches so I think I will be able to push them back out when I get new suspension. As for the tie rods, all I did was flip them. The tie rods themselves look fine to me, no crazy angles at all and the car seems to have no bump steer.

I wish I could offer more for the FWD rear 5-lug stuff, but I AWDed it so I'm no help. I found this thread thanks to a subscriber question. This should clear up the process on the fronts pretty well for any newcomers.

@aaronsbig16g There's some good info about ride height for the fronts in the last video. It includes all the parts and part numbers I used for the front end. The Megan Racing DSM springs were $129 new but I really didn't need the rear ones at all (if you go through my AWD rear swap videos, you'll see why).

Edit: I also credited 89MirageMan and ColtsFan in the info section because really they're the ones that did all the heavy work many years ago.

Very nice work once again :wink: . This should clear up a lot for others out there wanting to do this swap.

Great video's! Very informative and entertaining.

And thanks for the tips! I think I'm running dsm shocks right now but this winter I'm going to upgrade to a koni/ground control combo, for sure going to try to get my hands on a set of mirage fronts.
