Default Front hub needed badly

In need of EZ Go front hub. Hub has front brakes. Called local dealer and was told it is not available. Any help in finding this hub would be greatly appreciated.
The measurements are: Outside bearing appx. 1 7/8. Brake liner inside appx. 6 1/4.

That looks like a picture of a rear hub, not a front hub. Please post the essentials of your cart - year drive system, voltage, ect. What kind of front brakes do you have? And BTW, welcome to BGW!!!

In what way is your hub/drum hurt? Or do you only have one to begin with? Is it going to be for the 954?

If you are wanting to add drum brakes to the front of a different ezgo cart you are in for a high cost. You will probably wind up going to a disk brake set up from one of the sponsors at a more reasonable cost.

seeing as how that cart has drum brakes on the FRONT......I wonder if they are the same as the rears? why don'[t you take off one of the rears and compare, bearings and all. This may be as simple as buying new rears.

It only had one front hub on it when purchased from a government auction. I want to find another hub for it and batteries in order to sale and recover my $700 that i paid for it .I dont think I could even get $500 for it the way it is.

The front hubs/drums have bearing races built in. The rear drums are going to have internal splines or be made to slip over the rear hub. They are not the same unfortunately.

Any chance of just taking the front brakes off and just using the rears to stop the cart? But keeping the parts you took off for the future buyer? Just thinkin out loud......
