hit up Laynrockers on here. He can help you out w/ this no problem. All you have to do is machine your spindles to accept the toyota hub (90-94 toyota hub can be bought @ junkyards usually around $20-30 for the pair). Then buy toyota rotors and toyota inner seal and you are good to go. LAYNROCKERS does excellent machine work and has a great turnaround...send him an IM and he should get right back to you.

I used my nissan spindles with an older model toyota hub, rotor, and bearings. Had to get a different hub seal. I'll try to find the part number for ya.

If you don't machine the rotor the seal doesnt seat right and it also doesnt let the bearings slide up far enuff on the shaft so that they ride in the correct place on the spindle shaft. Not sayin it doesnt work.....just doesnt work correcttly...will eventually wear the bearings out and possibbly damage the spindle. And when the seal doesnt seat right it allows trash, dirt, debris to get in from the back side. If your gonna do it do it right the 1st time. Just my opinion.

The part numbers on the bearings for the hub i used are the exact same. You just have to find the federal seal that fits the nissan spindle and the toyo hub. The part number is 710175.

Thats a timkin part number on the seal. The bearing part numbers for the nissan and the toyota are set 5 and set 3 (also timken #'s).

You are gonna wear your spindle shaft out...Just tryin to help.

drgnbdy has given you the correct info. If you use that seal it will not let the bearings seat and will cause them to wear a groove in the spindle that WILL cause the spindle to break over time. It also spaces your wheels out 1/4". I can machine your spindles to accept the toyota hub Correctly, with no shimming of the caliper, and will not space your wheels out. It all bolts up like factory. Give me a yell if I can be of any assistance......John
