Side Note: Years ago there was a sort-of gimmicky product called
'MetWrench' being hawked on the infomercials. It promised you could
use its one set of sockets and wrenches on both SAE and metric nuts;
in a moment of weakness I bought a set. Surprisingly, the tools
were very good quality and for the most part work as
advertised--they contact the flats of nuts instead of the
corners--and I can even usually find one that will work on Whitworth
nuts. Has saved me similar anguish as this on several occasions (I
don't think they have a deep socket that large, though).<br>

<div dir="ltr">Just checked the moss
catalog. They only list a UNF nut for a 100 without giving
the size. That is what I bought, so I have to find a socket
that will fit whatever size it is. I guess I don't have the
right size socket in an SAE size that fits. Using a metric
that is close just to get it to 40 ft lbs to find out the
right combination of spacers. Oh boy, an excuse to go look
for another tool (socket).</div>

<div>If we are talking about
studs in the hubs there were
four on the early BN1 and five
on the later BN1s, BN2 and
beyond.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The early hubs came from a
range of Austin vehicles where
Austin parts were mainly BSF
on vehicles such as the A40
Somerset</div>
<div> </div>
<div>With the merger into BMC
mainly UNF threads were
introduced on cars such as the
A90 Westminster</div>
<div> </div>
<div>So to say that just studs
where changed is misleading.
The hubs in total were
different and not
interchangeable from the early
BN1 to later the later BN1 and
BN2</div>
