Sachs for 172 cup?

[Tiz woz]

Hi chaps, as above, does this work, anyone tried it? Or is it not a plug and play system? A mate of mine is looking to buy one and with the price of sachs needing a refurb being quite reasonable he was wondering if it can be done? More of a cliosport question I know but I haven't joined yet.
Thanks
Luke

The bolt spacing is different on a 172 cup, you'd need 182 cup hubs, wishbones and driveshafts from memory, quite a lot of work and expensive involved!

Tell him to buy a 182 cup instead!
