Front Hubs

[migman]

Hello everyone.
I am looking for some advice.In the process of gathering up some bits and pieces
to build a locost sportscar. I have sourced the engine,gearbox and back axle.
What do people use for front hubs other than MX5 as they are very hard to find.

thanks for any information.

You can use almost any front hub if you blank off the cv joint in the inside
