Re: From disc to wire wheels-shim question

Dennis:

I have no idea if the following is true of all MGBs, but it should be
for the early "banjo" MGB as it used basically the same setup as the
MGA.

The MGA swap to wire wheel requires the use of a wire wheel rear axle
casing and half shafts.  A disk wheel casing and its corresponding half
shafts do not allow the half shafts to completely enter the spider
gears.  There will only be about 1/8" engagement instead of the over 1"
engagement required.
