The hub face is the same (the circular bit with the studs in) but the hub carrier is definately different to all other sierras even the XR4x4. It is however, the same as the escort cosworth I believe. Hope this helps.

even on XR4x4 late and early hubs varied. The caliper lug off changed, not much only talking a few mm but the later cars also had a different offset disc which I think is related.
I've swapped hubs on mine that has moved the caliper position slightly. either the DOHC ones are different or they change on a particular year (possibly 92)

All 4x4 cars run different flanges, due to the need for a hole for the driveshaft. 4x4 knuckles are different to 2wd ones as the hole where the tca balljoint goes through is a different diameter as well, to avoid people trying to fit the wrong type.

The hub - as in the round bit with the 4 studs sticking out, is the same on all 4x4 versions of Sierra plus the Escort cosworth
The front bearing carrier though (also known as the knuckle) is different - as the steering arm and brake bracket elements are at different points on non cosworth versions
Hope that clears things up

but the hub flange is the same on all 4wd carssame as it is on the 2wd cars
the knuckles are the thigns that vary and the xr ones vary on the early 2.8's as well

Is this one a 2wd front hub?
And is this a 4x4 rear hub

A 4x4 hub (upright) is unique, but u can fit a xr4x4 one with brakes and shafts to give 10mm wider track, but single pot caliper and smaller discs
