wheel spacers

Hi all

I have a pair of 19mm wheel spacers to fit an English axle.
The problem I have is there is not enough space between the hub and the brake back plate to fit the extended studs.
It seems i would have to withdraw the hub/drive shaft by about 20mm.
Has anyone had this problem before.
Cheers

Keith

ideally remove the hub as they need to be driven home onto the splines





Life is like a bowl of fruit, funny how all the weird looking ones are left alone

they can also be 'pulled through' with washers and an old wheel nut can't they?

but yeah, the shaft really ought to come out in any case

I've had ones so tight that tightening them as much as I dare still wouldn't fully seat the splined section, they should ideally be pressed in.
