Threaded Wheel Hub

[STRBramley]

I think I know the answer to this one but I thought I'd post in case anyone had any clever ideas or solutions.

I took my NSF wheel off for the first time this week to fit a new arch liner and I noticed one of the bolts was very loose.
Upon inspection it looked cross threaded and when I tightened it back up the bolt just kept spinning. I tried another bolt with the same result.

Is it possible to get these tapped out or do I need a new hub?

If a new hub is required, is the below what I would need? I know the ad states for a 172 but are they different on a 182? Would I need anything else other than new wheel nuts?

Cheers

For the amount of dicking about required to fix, it will be easier to just get a new drive flange hub.

Yeah just fit a new hub setup or just the flange itself but that will require a new bearing and having a big press.

172 hubs will fit a 182 as long as yours is not a cup packed model.

Stick a second hand hub on. Very easy to swap on Clios and can be done at home as no need to mess with press machines.

Thanks for the replies everyone.
It's a 182 Trophy, I assume this doesn't use the cup pack spec?

Edit: Actually, reading this, I think I need the 60mm spacing.

Yeah you'll need the 60mm hubs if you're doing a complete swap.

60mm 182 Cup pack hub required for a Trophy, not 54mm 172..

@Mbeau or @midge may be able to help, otherwise there`s this on eBay.

Only got one 54mm hub left unfortunately. I need to get another breaker!!

Swap it out, piece of cake on these.

Thanks for the replies everyone. I’ll get the one from the link above.
Would it be worth replacing the bearing while it’s off?

My thoughts are that if you are going to take the hub to a 3rd party to have the bearing pressed out, you may as well get a new hub and bearing from Autodoc, and refurbish your existing assembly.

Alternatively, buy and fit the eBay item, and if it has a noisy bearing, refurbish your old one and refit it.
