Hi Jeff,
Sounds like a neat idea. The only problem is that as usual I started the
job, ran into difficultly and then sought advice. The studs are almost all
the way in and it looks like I will have to continue using a drift/punch and
hammer. I guessed the brake drum will pull the studs up the rest of the way
but I wanted the studs all the way in before assembly (these are w/w hubs) to
be absolutely sure they are the right length - these are double bearing hubs
on a w/w car that had to be modified already for the w/w.
