Bob,
The daytons 464 are the same size/type of splined hub as my dunlops were wich I always did refer to as 42s. I measured the hub and it is indeed 62 mm outside diam. taken right on the splines. I think that generally there are two different type/size of splined hubs one being the 42 (MGs, big healys and 289 cobras) and the other would be 58 I think that is Jaguar ??
I don't know where "42" comes from but I don't think (any sanity left here?) I made it up! I know I've seen it somewhere!Another mistery is how come my new IRS ,using jaguar uprights, has the same 42 splined hubs wich are supposed to be different from jaguar's?? O.K. now were the early 427 wire wheel cars using the same feable looking hubs....?? A yes to this should reassure ones envisaging using wire on 427s? Altough I am pretty sure they were not very wide rims ...maybe 7 inches.
