Used wheel hubs vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
The Ford Ka Mk1 ran from 1996 to 2008 as a single generation, so a hub from a 2000 car is from the same generation as your 1998 and is likely to be compatible. Engine size can influence brake and hub specification, so confirm with the breaker that both cars share the same engine (typically 1.3 or 1.6) before buying. Always verify against your registration to be sure.
No — the Mk1 Ka ran from 1996 to 2008 on the old B-platform, while the Mk2 Ka was introduced in 2008 on a completely different Fiat 500-based platform, so the two generations are not interchangeable. The running gear, suspension geometry and hub design differ significantly between the two. Source a hub that matches your specific generation and confirm with the breaker against your registration.
Both years fall within the Mk2 Ka, which ran from 2008 to 2016, so they are from the same generation and a hub is likely to cross over. Engine size can affect hub and brake specification, so let the breaker know whether your car is the 1.2 or 1.3 TDCi diesel to make sure the donor car matches. Confirm against your registration before purchasing.
Trim level does not affect wheel hub fitment on the Ford Ka — Studio, Zetec and other trim grades share the same running gear within each generation. What matters is the generation (Mk1 1996–2008 or Mk2 2008–2016) and the engine size, not the trim badge. You may find cosmetic differences such as alloy versus steel wheels, but the hub itself is the same.
Yes, side matters — nearside (NS, passenger side) and offside (OS, driver side) hubs are handed on the Ford Ka, so always specify which side you need when contacting a breaker. Getting the wrong side is the most common mistake with hub orders, so double-check before you confirm the quote.
Engine size can influence the brake and hub specification on the Ford Ka, as larger-engined cars sometimes carry uprated brakes with a different hub to match. It is worth confirming with the breaker that the donor car's engine size matches yours rather than assuming all Mk1 or Mk2 hubs are identical. Always verify against your registration plate to avoid an expensive mistake.
