He runs T hub to Model A wheel adapters on the rear.

This sounds interesting, do you have any pictures, please? I have two A hubs and new wheel bearings for them. I also have new T bearings now and I was looking at placing the A hubs with the drums in the lathe and turning the outer part of the drum off of the assembly.
