[Healeys] splined hubs

[Mark LaPierre]

My problem was the poor shipping procedure that Moss kept using.  Small 
boxes and poor interior
protection.   I sent a couple back because they banged into each other in 
shipping.  Thats a lot of
money to shell out for nicked up splines and threads.  So far, no apparent 
issues in quality.

Also I could not get the old lug bolts to go into  the new splines without 
banging the hell out of them and using heat.   Definitely not good for the 
spline flange. The holes were too small.   Don't forget new lugs for each 
spline hub.   If some splines come with lugs installed then maybe that is 
some of the price difference.
