[QUOTE="timetraveller, post: 150016, member: 456"] MM Robert is correct in this and when you have got further into your dismantling you will understand why There is also the matter of the shape of the bolts which hold the brake drums on to the hollow axles, spoke flanges, etc. There are two types of these but when and where the change was made I do not know. There is the type described by Robert with the offset cylindrical heads which are constrained from turning by the interference between the bolt heads and the bearing housing. The other type had a hexagonal head with one flat cut lower than the other five. That undercut flat sits against the bearing housing. Both types work well. [/QUOTE]
