FWD/AWD front hubs the same?

[92eagleTSI]

Well I broke one of the ears off of the pass. front hub while trying to get the bearing out and was wondering if the FWD assembly will fit my AWD. The piece that houses the bearing. If so I can get one locally. Thanks.

Depends on the year FWD hub.

I have a 92 talon and there is a 92-94 turbo (not sure on the year) at a junkyard near me. I would hate to order one and have to wait, i need to get this thing goin. Also not sure whether turbo matters or not.

Well all AWD's have small axles and diffs. 90-early 92 FWD also had the small axles and diff. After mid 92, the FWD's switched to a larger axle and diff/ splines, etc. Pop one of your axles out and go look at the yard and see if the match up in size, etc.

Thanks project tsi. I guess i'm going to have to go check it out since mine was made in june of 92.

Well i got the hub and knuckle off of a 92 fwd turbo and it was the same except for the ear for the tie rod end. The tie rod ear on the fwd knuckle was straight and the one on the awd was curved up slightly, all bolted up the same, just the ear sat up a little higher. Maybe a 1/2" higher but it works fine. Thanks for the help
