930 / 911 front hub differences-got pics?

[mmastro]

Can anyone tell me, or better yet show me, the differences between post-1986 front 930 hubs and 911 hubs? I want to make sure the hubs I'm buying are true 930 hubs from a 89 930.

Additionally, is there a difference between an 89 911 Turbo Look front hub and an 89 930 front hub?

I've done several searches but no luck...
Thanks

I dont have any pictures but know that turbo look suspensions come stock with regular 911 tie rods and Boge struts/shocks unless special ordered. The hub on my turbo look speedster is the same as my 87 factory slantnose.

The area where the grease cap goes is deeper on a 930, so there's a nut you have to pull on to get the grease cap out. See the exposed slot on the 911 hub on the right? The 930 hub doesn't have that - there's a hole, not a slot, to get to the retainer.

No

930 on the left, 911 on the right.

You can see it when they are side by side as in Thoms pics, the 930 hub is ~1" WIDER back to front

will a 911 hub fit a 930 strut/spindle?

So if I'm installing 930 fenders onto my 911 and I don't want to add a 1" wheel spacer adapter to the hub, can I simply replace the 911 hub with a 930 hub to gain the extra inch?
