[Fot] TR6 rear Hubs ?

[Richard Good]

My hubs are not related to SNG Barrett's.  I was not aware of theirs.   
Can anyone elaborate on their design?  Mine use a sealed double row ball 
bearing like you would find in a common front wheel drive hub.  The 
wheel flange presses into the ID of the bearing then the drive axle goes 
through the splined hole in the wheel flange with a big nut on the 
outside.  The bearings are housed in custom machined steel hubs that 
bolt into the trailing arms.  Should be bullet proof.

I am currently looking into offering the same hub with heavy duty 
u-joint axles in lieu of the CV's for a lower cost option.

Regards,
