You may find they are similar to a full size Olds or Pontiac of that year but with 8 lug mounting the GMC motorhome is most likely the only one. Jim K has them or some one switching to rear disks.

I've got four take-offs that (I think) are good. Unless you are close by, the shipping would kill you (They're heavy).

I sent two boxes of rear hubs (#40 per box) through USPS for less than
$50. They limit each box to #70.

Dwayne, I would like to get something for them. I'd like to recoup some of the cost of the disc brake system I installed last summer. I don't know how much they are worth (any guidance on this would be appreciated), but I will have them measured to make sure they are good before you get this way.
We are going to go on a 3-day weekend trip to Chiricahua National Monument on the weekend of 10/19 - 10/21. Hopefully we will be seeing you before then.

Ah, the Chiricahua National Monument. What a great place to visit. Fill your gas tank at the last town, it is a long way to the park. It is so far out of the way that there is no "city glow" in the night sky. That makes for great star gazing. One night we went down to the lower parking lot, and layed out on the ground to view the stars. Turn out the lights and you can't see your hand in front of your face. There is a great hiking trail in the park for viewing rock formations that starts in the upper lot, runs a circle and ends in the same lot. It is about a 3 mile hike. If you do it, Hike it in the counter clockwise direction. Clockwise, the hike has a tough up hill climb in the last 3/4 mile. CC it is a hard down hill at first, and gradual uphill back to the parking lot. No hook-ups there, and no lights. You will need a flashlight to get to the bathroom at night. Nightly rate is very cheap if you have the Golden Age pass. Have a good time there.

Larry,
I fully agree. We spent a long weekend down there last May. It was great. Because of the elevation (5400' at the visitor center) it is quite a bit cooler than Tucson at 2600'. Willcox is the closest town of any size and is 37 miles away. There is a length restriction of 29', which makes it perfect for the GMC. There are multiple hiking trails, and a shuttle, operated by the Forest Service that will drop hikers off at the top of the mountain so you can hike downhill all the way. Definitely a place to go back to again and again. They do not have even a dump station, but DO have a grey water dump near the restrooms (with flush toilets, if you don't want to use your own). The nightly camping rate is only $12.00. We aren't quite old enough for a Golden Age Pass)

Oh, I forgot to mention the drop dead beautiful scenery of the area. Last trip we drove the towd over the pass on Pinery Canyon Road, through Cave Creek Canyon to a little settlement (too small to call it a town) called Portal, where there is a small store/restaurant that had great cheeseburgers. The scenery in Cave Creek Canyon is unbelievably gorgeous.
Can you tell I'm excited to go down there?
