what is the exact dimension that the hub needs to be taken to to fit into the corsa bearings?
do i just measure the inside of the bearing and make it exactly that?
anyone know the figure off the top of their heads?

cheers

It's best to measure it to the exact diameter of the inside of the bearing, minus a few thou, then it's machined to fit that specific bearing, and the best fit too.
Also you need to make sure the back face is machined back a little otherwise it can foul the other part of the corsa hub.

best to take the hub of the astra/cav/calibra and the corsa hub, and take them to a engineering place and say u want them to look identical!
