I am selling a set of rear J30 spindles, hubs, lower control arms and e-brake assembly. This is a direct bolt on for an s14. S13 requires changing the bushings in the lca to s13 type or just grinding down the J30 ones, however this is the perfect time to install some energy suspension bushings in them. The J30 e-brake is similar to the z32 type with the drum setup. I haven't done any exact measurements but I know the e-brake cables are a little too long for an s13 so they should be pretty close on an s14. You can always modify them for an s13 though like the guys with the z32 rear brake setups. There was another guy who used this same stuff on his s13 here on zilvia. I can answer any questions you may have. I would like $100 plus shipping for all of this.

Im probably the other guy your reffering to. Everything he has said is true, what I did is grind down the bushing metal sleeve to the sam esize of that os the S13 ones.

IMPORTANT: REMEMBER IF YOU GRIND THEM DOWN (THE LCA BUSHINGS) REPEATLY DIP THE BUSHING IN WATER AS YOU ARE GRINDING THEM OR ELSE YOU WILL BE LEFT WITH A SMUSHY BUSHINGS...LOL

For the 96 J30 rear setup I had you have to use the J30 LCA arms with the J30 spindles: heres why:

also J30 use a bolt threw the lower shock instead of a nut.

I forgot to mention the J30 LCA ball joint is alot beefier than the S13 one and it is not possible to just press in a J30 ball joint into the S13 LCA so that another reason you have to use the J30 LCA, also J30 LCA have reinforcement on the under side of the LCA and the J30 traction arm also has reinforcement welded onto the under side and the RUCA is solid.

hi i have a set of j30 rear hubs i am triing to put on my s13. i had a machine shop try to press the j30 hub into the s13 hub housing. it went in but there is about an 1\8 of an inch gap between the hub and housing. the 4 lug hub and housing went flush together. is there any way to fix this or does this combo just not go together. any help would be appreciated.

It doesn' go together, you must replace everything if your using J30 hubs that are not unboltable.
