My hubs are not related to SNG Barrett's. I was not aware of theirs.
Can anyone elaborate on their design? Mine use a sealed double row ball
bearing like you would find in a common front wheel drive hub. The
wheel flange presses into the ID of the bearing then the drive axle goes
through the splined hole in the wheel flange with a big nut on the
outside. The bearings are housed in custom machined steel hubs that
bolt into the trailing arms. Should be bullet proof.
I am currently looking into offering the same hub with heavy duty
u-joint axles in lieu of the CV's for a lower cost option.
