I got one today !! i just called the Junk Yard ,and asked for a wheel hub for the 1990-1993 Cadillac Deville or  Fleetwood, they had four!

The one i ended up with was actually from a bonneville !

this is it cleaned up.

The Bolt circle dia. is ~ 4.527" , and the whole plate is 5.910 dia.

I quess GM has been making these for some time as this one is from a  '88 Bonneville ..

I think i'll keep that brake drum backing plate  .

Its 11" in dia,and should make a nice stator holder.





this is it before cleaning..




, and the mountings seem perfect for a  furling pivot point..







this is it with the brake pads and the wheel cylinder on there .

I saw on the net where somone made a load cell out of a wheel cylinder and a pressure gage.

Ok, now I feel stupid, I have an 88 and an 89 Bonnie in my back yard, Neither has it's engine, and one is missing the entire front end.  I think before I have the wrecking yard haul them off (they are required to here) I'll snag those bearings along with the other misc. junk I want off of them...  Thanks for the tip!

I am glad I stumbled on to this post, I ordered my magnets today from Wondermagnet.

I will have to wait a week or so because I live in Canada for delivery but, I was just about to buy a trailor hub before I saw this post.I have an 1989 Oldsmobile junker and after reading this post I went out to have a look at the rear and there was the hub.Thanks for the tip.
