Default Front hub differences between sti & uk ?

Just need to know if there are any differences in the front hubs between sti & uk classic models.

My car has developed a noise on the nsdf wheel turning left, sounds like a wheel bearing problem. I have been offered a my99 uk hub but was unsure if it would fit?

Considering the sti wishbones are made of aluminium & the uk's are steel?
I thought the ball joint would cause problems if I was to fit a my99 uk hub to a 95sti.

Thanks Ticky

the hubs are basically the same, however the ABS style pick-up changed and this will cause an issue dependant on the exact model you have

Thanks Alyn,

As my car does not have abs this should not be a problem then, correct?
