nope, everything else is mor or less the same

but for some reason i think the whole hub sits further inwards than the xr version

i've never been able to measure both at the same time as i've either had one set or the other

the xr hubs sirt further out than the cossies ones, due to the longer driveshafts, so they also have a wider wheelbase

also cossie brakes wont fit on, unless you go the rs turbo route with cossie 2wd discs and 4wd calipers

only reason i went cossie hubs is for the cossie breaks to keep it all tied up with cossie everything else, but the ball joints are a nightmare to get on with the longer shafts
