    umm this is still under research. i gave arrozburner my extra odyssey hub to see if it'll fit the accord bearing. to my measurements it looks like it will. why don't you try and do that and let us know? it wouldn't hurt to do so .

          As usual, I'm going to bump old threads back from the dead

          Been doing some reading on 5-lug conversion for the front, and ppl seem to have done some R&D and found out that Odyssey hubs do fit on Accord bearings and knuckles? Can someone confirm me on this one?

          In this thread, Timmy showed us that he used Prelude hubs on Odyssey bearings and knuckles, which brings me to the next question:

          If Odyssey hubs fit on Accord bearings and knuckles, and Prelude hubs fit on Odyssey bearings and knuckles, does this mean that Prelude hubs will fit on Accord bearings and knuckles as well?

          Timmy did said that the Prelude hubs are a bit shorter compared to Odyssey hubs, but I don't see any problem with that...Maybe I missed something?

          If anyone can answer my questions and provide a bit more info on this, that'd be greatly appreciated Thanks in advance guys!

            we have not yet confirmed if the ody hubs fit the accord bearings. bug arrozburner since he still has my ody hub.

            if that's the case then all hubs fit the accord bearings; but the length is another thing. to do rotor-over-hub don't you need the prelude hub anyways (or was it CL)? remember i only noticed the prelude 5-lug hub to be shorter when used with ody bearings (my currect setup). i'd rather use ody hubs so i can stake my axle nuts (shorter hub doesn't able me to stake the nut, just like the rear when doing a 5-lug).

            it's not a big deal if the hub is short. i've tracked my car with that setup and everything is fine, all nuts UNstaked on all corners LOL.

              Really? Hmm my bad then..I seriously thought ppl have done their research and came up with a definite answer..Here are the quotes I found while doing some searching and reading on here..

              Good luck on the swap and keep us posted.
              For ROH conversion, yes, ppl do use the CL hubs..But I want to do 5-lug conversion Timmy, not ROH conversion hehe that's why I was asking whether the Lude hubs will work on Accord bearings or not..

              The way I see it, if it IS proven that Ody hubs fit Accord bearings and knuckles, and we've all seen how you're using Lude hubs on Ody bearings and knuckles, thenn I think it's safe to assume that the Lude hubs WILL fit on Accord bearings and knuckles as well, despite the fact that Lude hubs are a bit shorter than Ody hubs..Who knows? Maybe the Lude hubs will fit even better on the Accord bearings than Ody hubs due to the shorter length hehe who knows tho, I'm jus guessing....

              But I guess I'm going to have to bug some ppl thru PM and ask them questions about this, especially arrozburner..

              I myself do have spare Accord hubs and bearings..I also have Lude hubs, BUT they are still attached to the knuckles, soo I couldn't exactly measure and compare them side by side just yet..

              I'm willing to bet that they will fit though..I dunno, just a gut instinct..Anyone with me on this? Hehe

              Maybe someone else can clarify this? Thanks guys

                        just wanting to add to this post. wagan van TypeR and all VTEC calipers share the same A1 car done part #. As well as the same wagner brake pad number --503. as far as the back im not sure yet but 10th-AE-cb7 's have the bigger calipers. Not sure if its bigger than the lude. i look into it soon and edit this post.

                            ronald perhaps you should take these knuckles to a machine shop have them press the stuff out so you can measure and then have them press them in if you are indeed right!

                                25T bracket is the bracket that holds the caliper to the knuckle for the prelude vtec calipers.
