Lancia Delta HF4WD / Integrale NSR hub

[theoldsmithy]

Hi all

Seems my NSR hub is worn internally such that a replacement bearing is not a tight fit and I can still feel (& more importantly the MoT man can feel) slight play.
Does anyone know where I might find such an item?  Not sure who breaks them these days, most places I knew seem to have gone.

Thanks for any help

I'd say Tanc Barrett will have some, not the sort of things that flies off the shelf.

Thanks, they are looking into it but not sure if they have any.  If they do, not sure if they'd sell one.

Have a look on the Zagato lancia website.They have them listed as reconditioned items but want an email enquiry.Otherwise you may need to find a machine shop who can sleeve the housing. Best of luck. David

Thanks, yes I’ve emailed Zagato but there’s been zero response so far.
If I’m honest, the answer phone message they have is so bad quality & the website so dated I’m not entirely sure they’re still going.

Any luck in resolving your problem?

Despite phoning Tanc & them saying they'd check, I've heard nothing since.  I also emailed them & sent a message on their website, but zero response.
An employee of Deltaworks emailed to say they couldn't find one.
Finally had a slightly odd email from Zagato saying 'check integrale.org.uk' - which as you pointed out earlier, says to email them for price & availability.  If you put one in the basket, it says out of stock anyway.

Pretty useless all round then.

Seems maybe I take a punt on the German 16v one on eBay (they have an ABS sensor housing in the casting which I don't think matters) & hope it's ok - £275 down the drain if it isn't.
Could be I get this one sleeved, or bodge it with Belzona.  Not too sure the best way to go.

At £275 I would go with sleeving as you know what you are starting with, also replacement may not be any better?

Indeed, probably best I think.

There are some very good loctite bearing fit products.
