Re: Rear wheel studs
BMC Ecosse I agree that the wheel spacer isn't a great idea. However this is a car I bought last September and it has been very carefully restored with lots of new parts.

Rear wheel studs

I intend to change the half shafts for something stronger - the options are: Riley 1.5 shafts that came as spares with the car and are reputed to be stronger - is...
