Stub Axles
Stub Axles
We may have covered this recently, but I cannot find a post on it, so here goes!<br>
<br>
Having inspected my stub axles, they are shot, in that they have worn heavily owing to bearing 'issues'. Seeing as I'm about to fit new bearings, I thought it worthwhile to replace the stub axles at the same time BUT no-where seems to have them listed on the internet.<br>
<br>
Does anyone know if they are available anywhere?<br>

Stub axles
I looked into this a while back and you're right, there's none about at the moment. One of the Triumph specialists I've chatted to at various shows is prepared to get some more made using a new one I have as a pattern.<br>
<br>
Who else would be interested in some ?

I'll have...
..4, I think. It would make sense to replace those on the other car as well, judging by the other bits and pieces I've so far found...<br>

What about....
Spitfire ones? They look very similar, take the same wheel bearings and a very similar if not identical brake caliper...<br>

Re: So...
You sure about that jonners? Dolly bearings are common to GT6s not spits. The GT6 stub might be ok.<br>
<br>
I've a spit pair somewhere.<br>

Not sure now...
Later GT6's had 5.5J wheels, which do fit a Spit okay.<br>
Not sure if the bearings were uprated becuase of this.<br>
<br>
Dolly and Spit hubs look very similar and the bearing fit method is identical but the discs have a bigger offset on a dolly so thinking about it dolly stub axles must be longer...<br>
Sorry...should have looked at the parts books.<br>

Re: Not sure now...
I have gt6 stubs on my dolly they are a bit longer and makes caliper choice a bit better

Re: Not sure now...
Were they direct fit Daz, or did it take any machining?

Re: Not sure now...
The Stag one a straight foward fit.<br>
These are what I have on the Stagomite.<br>
Hardest bit is pressing out the old Pin from the Hub.<br>
But it is slightly longer.<br>
<br>
I'm sure are friend's up north may give you the size's of both.<br>

Re: Not sure now...
They fit straight in <br>
U will need a hydraulic press to get your old ones out<br>
DONT,,, heat the carrier and use a hammer to get them out !
