I've got one here with a dead bearing and a rusted-in lower bolt.........any use ?
Postage might kill it , but its free.............

Hi Claire. As long as the hub itself is ok that would be spot on. I've got a full new set of bearings ready to fit anyway.

If you let me know how much to post would paypal be ok?

What happened to the hub during removing the shaft?

Just asking as I am struggling to get the shaft out of mine!

I happened to it!! Lost my rag trying to get the shaft out and took a chunk of it off.

I eventually got the shaft out after 3 days soaking in penetrating oil. Then in my 12 ton press at max pressure then a smack on the hub and it finally popped out.

Ok, mine been in the vice for about 5 weeks soaking in penetrating oil!!!
