Quick question. ..do berlingo/partner hubs fit a 306 ...I need front hubs urgently for the hdi and have been offered a set of berlingo (prefacelift) front hubs for a very good price and dont wanna be wasting money , my front right bearing is that bad it got hot enough to melt the paint off my wheel

Yes they will fit.
However I'm not sure how much camber you would end up with.
Are the ball joints 16mm or 18mm?

I had planned to change the ball joints to suit the hub size ...I have a pair of brand ne 16mm pas ball joints and a pair of new 18mm ones here so jjst a case of figureing out geometery differences ...as long as its not going positive I can cope with a degree or so extra neg

This is basically what happens when you put different hubs on different models.
306 hubs on 205 = positive camber
205 hubs on 306 = negative camber
Berlingo hubs on 106 = serious negative camber

No camber issues after fitting ...although berlingo hubs are 16mm ball joints and lack abs sensors ...will do for the time being until I find a pair of decent hdi 18mm hubs
