so wrong!

My phase 1 is 18mm and the phase 3 I have is 16mm!

According to motor factor books it used to be based on PAS or non PAS...but that hasnt fitted in my experience either

Another problem, is you don't know if a previous owner has changed the hub in the past and might of put a different size on, i am sure i have read a post where someone has had a 16mm on one side and an 18mm on the other.

So as above measure them, or buy both and return the unused ones.

i did say generally knobcheese.......and that is "generally" what they are, many will have been changed and many will have whatever Pug had kicking around spare on the day, crawl back into your cage little pig...Wink

its not related to PAS as all ph2s and 3s had PAS yet it was a gamble which size you got on a ph2
