There’s the part dismantled axle from Jon Tilson’s things, it’s 1850 with halfshaft and back plate missing, but the cups are reasonable and the same as Sprint....

Thanks Alun but at the moment I would like to try and get something new in there. Core plugs do seem to be a viable option with a bit of drilling and I am assuming it just needs to stop the bush moving around so just has to be deep enough to stop that. Not sure why one side seems to be shallower than the other however.
