Rear wheel hubs from new FWD cars?
I had a Vaux' Insidious in work on Friday and noticed the rear hubs are splined to take a driveshaft. They're FWD so I assume this is for
4WD versions or they're utilising the same bearing carrier/hub assembly on the rear, as they use on the front. I'm pretty sure I've
seem similar hubs used on other cars/makes as well.
Has anybody looked into using these on a kit?

Adi,
Imagine going into your local spares place and asking for a CV joint for the back of a front wheel drive car.
There would be more than the normal sucking of teeth!
I guess you could use the diff too

Interestingly it's available as an extra on pretty much every engine variant...so there may be a nice selection of ratios...
