cheap engineering company to make hub adapters wanted

Postby MONSTER 0NE » Thu Aug 06, 2009 11:01 pm

Hi guys,
Do any of you know of a reasonably priced engineeering/machine shops that could make up some rear wheel hub adapters as all im getting is silly prices at the min, as i could do ith sorting something out soon.
It will also help out other members on here as i know a few that will be needed some in the future.
Cheers for any usefull info

There is a guy on here with a black mk6 with silver stripes up in Scotland.

His mate is a engineer and he made some adapters for that mk6. Reasonable is well his number is on that post. I will try and find it and post it here.

Thank you

My company (devon engineering) uses a very reasonable machinist. He should be coming in tomorrow, so I'll ask him for a quote. He won't be interested in posting anything, but I'm sure we can work something out.
