Does anyone know if I have too good Hubbs from a narrow front end if I can move them to my wide front end?(I don't know if they're interchangeable?) I just bought a wide front end but didn't notice until now that two of the studs are cut off...( Rusted into hub- looks like sawzalled off or something) Thanks Matt |

| I don't have hands on knowledge of this, but the parts books show both standard (narrow) and adjustable (wide) front axles used the same hubs. The single front wheel used a different hub. |

hmm, sold the CA years ago but aren't the wheels held on by BOLTS ??? The are on my D-14s. I bought a hub for #1 years ago as one thread was mangled. If they are bolts, you can just drill out the busted chunk, chase the threads... ------------- 3 D-14s,A-C forklift, B-112 Kubota BX23S lil' TOOT( The Other Orange Tractor) Never burn your bridges, unless you can walk on water |

| Yes, they use lug bolts not studs. |

| B/C/and The CA all used the same 5 hole hubs. I have noticed some slight differences in the castings but they all interchange freely for any style axle. NF or WF . I have a coffee can full of good used lug bolts for these hubs. PM me if you need any of these bolts. $2 Each |

Right, bolts are cut off on mine. Ok, I can pull the hubs( not sure how they come apart) but at least I can switch this wide front and get her rolling right away without having to drillout/retap old hubs right away...( Which I can do on downtime project in winter when slow, need to get back together to use old girl with my old/ new to me trip loader bucket and wide front end...) Thanks guys |

re: Which I can do on downtime project in winter when slow, hahaha... that's what I said , about 10 years ago. my bad hub now has a nice layer of 'protective dust' on it now, so well, maybe later, I'll get to it  jay ------------- 3 D-14s,A-C forklift, B-112 Kubota BX23S lil' TOOT( The Other Orange Tractor) Never burn your bridges, unless you can walk on water |
