Hi all,

Just a quick question -
Is there such a thing as a reverse thread stub axle for a 68 - 70 rear carrier 205mm drum ? I had the split pin sheer off and the nut undo on the left rear to allow the drum with wheel try and come off - damaging the wheel arch, melt the tyre wall and blunt the thread of the axle. (reason for nut coming loose was a miss centred drum vibrating against brakes)

In my mind the thread should be reverse thread to stop this happening - but i can't find any reference or option for one - just wondered if anyone knew anything about this or where to get hold of one if available ?

Many thanks

Colin
