Default Re: Model A hubs on a T

The adapters in the photo above will need work before they could be used. I tried one with a Model A wheel, you would need spacers between the backing plate and wheel so the lug nuts don't warp the rim. The holes for the lug bolts need to be opened. the rears have good hubs and the way the hub is recessed would be easy to add brake drums. The Model A rear hubs go too far on the axle.
Here are some photos of the other set of fronts I have. I did find that the end of the spindle was cut off, it looked old and was rounded like the stock end of the normal spindle.
The spindle arm is Model A. If you are building a speedster they can be used with out a lot of modification.
