hi all

would these wheels be easily adapted to a 1990-93 VFR rear end?

Not sure about the one on the left but I don't reckon the right one will fit at all!

yeh same here,
the 1 on the right will be very hard to fit on a sssa.

CIG is a better locker maker than just a MIG;) I seen one done by STICK but it wasn't as good:D

I had a cig locker in my Escort and let me tell you it was lots of fun.
Not to mention the extra drive in the snow.

i have seen it done and you need the complete hub off the
duc sssa also there is a company in germany that can
mod the axle on the vfr but as far as i can remember it wasn't
cheap.

yeah, thanks mate
i didnt end up getting them in the end

i read around and the VFR hub is apparently made of some ridiciously hard steel
so machining the spare one i have wouldnt have been that cheap

shall stick with the 150 rear for now i think and use a spare TLR wheel i have up front ;)
