Thought I had found your axle.... but is is an 8-bolt hub only.

Default A new version.....

Hi Hanno

Hi Philippe

What you have is a whole new and different type of adapter......... it has the CMP bolt pattern(8) ....similar to the C15 4x2 but much shallower....as in closer to the brake drum......... the C15 does nothave those smaller nuts showing and is bolted from behind like the civilian ones. The centre bearing cover is also unique being of a stamp metal screwed in to the hub,,,,,typically the bearing cover for the HD Timken bearing set up has a domed cover held by 4 small bolts/screws...... any idea what it came from????

Been very cold around here lately.... at night minus- 25 to -29C with a windchill factor of -35C.....very little snow so far but bitter cold.

Cheers

Is it possible that the hub in post #29 is a more modern (50s or 60s) one, maybe Bedford ?
