[Healeys] Axle questions

[Michael Salter]

Hi Dave,
1. On the rear axle housing the threads of the bearing retainer nut are LHT
on the left and RHT on the right, although I seem to remember that on BN1
axles they are RHT both sides. All other threads are RHT. Everything on the
front is RHT.
2. Are we talking about front or rear axles here?

2 dumb axle questions for the list:


   1. are the nuts on the right and left hubs left and right hand threads,
   or both the same rotation?
   2. are all axles the same basic size dimensionally and in mounting
   bracket locations from the 100s on up through the BJ8s?  Were they all
the
   same?


Thanks!
Dave
