Tuff hubb question

(1/2) > >>

monkeybat:
Hi guys I have noticed a lot of old type tuffs with missing hubs.
Has anyone used any other large flange hubs and screwed into place? or is there anything else you can do?

Ady:
There are kits out there to replace repair the hubs bud.
They was a thread on the museum , a guy had loads of abused tuffs some hand painted.
He machined long bolts which looked like rivets to fit the flanges .
Great thread ..
When  fully refurbished they all looked good as new

Any chance of a link to that please Andy as I can't seem to find it?
I'm in the same position and was even wondering if new hubs could be made up with proper bearings rather than cones?

Ady:
This guy only modded the rivets with machined bolts.
He refurbished the existing flanges if I remember..
I will have a look mate.. fistblump

Ady:
Found it.. fistblump
