WOW!
Congratulations!
you are THE Man! it must be nice to have a machine shop to work in. My right rear wheel bearing was out on my wagon, so I changed the entire subframe from a 95 wagon and got the upgraded vented rotors and such. along with all new link bushings and all... your way looks easier.

Excellent work.

I have access to a similar shop, but spending three hours of their work would cost more than the hub.........

Great job! I like that you were able to fix it rather than replace and landfill it.

Great Job! Was any heat treating necessary? I suspect the welds are probably finer harder metal than was there to begin with though.
