The fitting of Marina hubs

Post by Nourish »

Can any one tell me if the fitting of Marina hubs alters the track of the wheels?

The track width of a Morris Marina fitted with drum brakes is 4ft 4 3/8".

The track width of a Morris Marina with disc brakes is 4ft 4".

The distance from the outer face of the Morris Minor chassis leg to the outer face of the Marina hub when fitted to a Morris Minor swivel/stub axle is 16 1/2".

Whilst I cannot give a direct response to your question above - from the measurements I have given above you should be able to determine if the track is any wider.

Thank you for that Phil. Now as My car is 100% dismantles could anyone give me distance from the outer face of the Morris Minor chassis leg to the outer face of the Minor hub to compare with Phil's measurement? Cheers
