Overview
RX-8 to MX-5 / Miata NC rear knuckle conversion kit – the best-value fix for the NC's well-known weakness: rear hub bearings and flanges that collapse under hard driving. The RX-8 knuckle has a larger bearing housing, larger bearings and a thicker flange, giving a much stronger rear hub for track and fast-road use.
The conversion needs a hybrid pair of driveshafts using the RX-8 automatic's outer joint, which isn't available in the UK – so we import the correct parts from Japan and supply everything for a direct fit. Every imported part is inspected, stripped, vapour blasted and rebuilt before dispatch, and a full technical guide walks you through installation.
