As for the SKF hubs that you have invested in, they are as good as they get as far as Corvette style hubs go. I utilize the C7 SKF hubs because they are identical in strength to the units you have, but the cost is much less. They are a direct replacement for the ones you have except the electronics differ IF you were planning on running ABS. As you probably know, you have a solid set-up there either way!

I really like the ZO6 stuff as well. VERY cost effective for what you get. Good luck with your project. I am a fan of your work and will be watching!

Thanks! I'm just a hobbyist, but I have collected some tools and learned a few things over the years. My motto is - -I know what good work looks like, I just keep trying until I achieve it! That's the fun part for me, always learning/trying new things and getting better each time.

This is a pretty cool setup. The issue with how long it takes me to build stuff is that by the time I get done there is always cooler/better stuff that has come out!
