Both my Bs have the multiple bolts wheel to axle connection ,like the C or CA.On one of my Bs i changed it out years ago,because it was spinning no matter how much it was tightened.I had a parts tractor with the multiple pattern and switched them out.My question is if there is an easy fix for this,if i run across it again?thanks Tom

No easy fix. Once the splined stub axle spins in the wheel center one or both of them are toast. You could weld the wheel center to the axle if you NEVER plan to take it off.

I bought one tractor that way. Shaft was 90% good... Hub was toast. I welded up the inside splines and tried to grind them to size... Was about 60% contact... It ran a couple years, then started to wobble a little... tightened and it ran another year to wobble, etc.. about the third time I bought a good hub and installed on the original axle-- No problems after that. Hub was about $80. on e-bay.

I guess you could take a 3/4 inch thick flange about 8 inches in diameter, and have it welded to the original shaft to make it looks "somewhat" like the 5 bolt style.
