Default Help, I'm lost in this forum

G'day all, I understand that this is probably not the place to post this, but I've spent ages going thru sub forums, and using the search feature, but have been unable to find what I want. Could someone please point me in the right direction?

I need to replace the front hub/brake rotor assemblies for my AU11 Fairmont, and would like to know who sells good ones at a fair price.
I don't want to spend good money to get crappy bearings & discs.
I live near Newcastle NSW.

I would be very grateful if someone would point me in the right direction.
I have gained many useful tips and info over the years from this forum, and have no doubt that the answer to my query is here, I just can't find it.

Many thanks in advance, Terry

Terry, the other option would be to go to the AUseries section in community club forums. They all have the same ride as you, and someones had the same issues as you, guaranteed! Also I bought a front hub and bearing kit for the BA at a local Repco which was pretty well priced. Other than that "The Hunter Falcon Centre" (recycled parts) in Cardiff are pretty good too, and then theres Whickam Spares.

See how ya go with those.

Might see ya round!

Many thanks, from one granpa to another??

That section is what I couldn't find yesterday!
I will spend many hours poking around in there. You have made my day!
