Yes, GP axle hubs.

OOOOHHH shiny. Too pretty to put on.
 
Nice looking part. The studs look a bit long, or it could just be the picture.

Yes they are. I plan to ask Richard about them tomorrow.
 
Wow, that is a serious bit of kit there - do you stick with the sliding half shafts, or do they get upgraded too?
 
Wow, pretty! Ahem, I mean very manly part there. :smile:

I found this note on the Goodparts web page regarding the wheel studs.

Note: Good Parts hubs use 1-3/8" wheel studs which are slightly longer than stock to better accommodate alloy wheels. Options are listed below to substitute 7/8" studs for wire wheels, 1-3/4" studs or 2-1/2" Moroso studs in lieu of the standard studs when ordering hubs. The studs are also listed for outright purchase when not ordering a hub. Please note that the studs listed for Good Parts hub will not fit the stock hub. All stud measurements are from the face of the hub flange and not including brake drum.

<span style="color: #990000">"Special Shipping and Handling" to zip code 00961 could easily add another $400-600/ each.

Your old hubs look better than my existing hubs, Ray. Beautiful.

Yes, $349 each, or another way to look at it, only $49 more each over having the old ones rebuilt. Then knock off $40 for shipping the old ones, and they cost only $29 more each. So, for $58 more, for me this was a no brainer...

The studs are longer, but they work just fine with standard wheels and lugs, and may help with alloy rims.
 
I went the GP CVJ route last winter and found them to be a perfect drop in fit. It's the same hub for both the CVJs and the stock axle. The studs are longer but work fine with my alloy wheels other then the fact that the lug nuts have obviously never been threaded that far before! :driving:
