I need to replace the RF hub on my 92 G/A. It is attached with 3 medium size torx bolts.
Anyone know what size torx they are? They look like T50 but could also be T47. (The hub is $89 at O'Reilly.) Paul

I think it is T50.
T50 sounds familiar, but save yourself the headache and buy a set of Torx tips. You will need them down the road.
It's a T55. I did the same job on my 92 GA yesterday. The hub was $55 at Auto Zone. It has a three month warranty and is probably Chinese made. Auto Zone also had a $75 hub (Timken bearing and one year warranty.)
The new hub came with a new grease seal but I left the original grease seal installed. This made the job easier. I didn't have to disconnect the tie rod end, ball joint, top strut mount and remove the drive axle to install the new seal.

Thanks Dave. T55 it is. I replaced the half-shaft yesterday. Too bad I did not have the grease seal at that time. Paul.
