What hubs go on the front of a goblin?

I don't recall seeing an answer on a video, coming across forum post in passing and didn't get any hubs in my kit. Is DF supposed to supply these in the kit or do we supply them from the donor/buy new?

There are 4 and 5 lug "rear" hubs, the ABS pickup is not used on the Goblin, many builders cut that sensor away and 3D print a cover for the back. I don't know exactly the description/donor for the Goblin Front rotor. I believe it is a stock GM rotor and is vented, not the solid rear rotor used on some Delta platform apps.

The Goblin front brake arrangement is all alien to me as my toy(GOB-BALT) uses all front brakes. My calipers have 2.5"(08 HHR) pistons front and 2" pistons(06 base Cobalt) "rear" with 06 front caliper hanger and smaller pads. Same rotor all around. This is all subject to change AFTER it actually drives! I have 3 more days in the shop, then it will sit until spring 2025! My current master cylinder(as yet untested) is 06 (base?) disc/drum type. We shall see.

Ive dealt with Thad before. I know he's real, but... Flooding threads with SOMETHING about this hacked up goofbalt chassis on a regular basis, can we give him a build log to unload in?
I want to see it move, but not every thread needs an update.
I apologize for the possible hijack here. I shall try to reign myself in the future. Carry on!:cool:
