Title: Sunshine Hubs, Loose Ball, Dust Covers
Post by: Clean on May 05, 2011, 11:31 PM

Peeps,

I am restoring - after a fashion - a pair of loose ball High Flange Sunshine Hubs for my DB Pro Large build. There is a thin sheet metal dust cover that slides over the axle and fits around the cone covering the bearings below; it secures with a very simple interference fit with the hub itself. They are about 35mm OD.

Trouble is one of 'em is a little mangled (left one in pic).  :'(

I reckon it is beyond straightening, and whilst it will fit back it is U G L Y!  :2gunsfiring_v1:

Does anyone have any of these lying around, or have any idea where I might pick one up, please?  ???

Thanks,

Clean.

There is a site here in Australia that sells them:

If you need them and they won't send them overseas, let me know and I'll sort it out for you  :daumenhoch:
