Re: Looking for front hub for wood spoke wheels
I have a hub that I removed from a wheel last weekend. It had a spindle in it that I needed. I did not look it over closely to assess its condition but I can get photos. I hope to get out to the shop tomorrow. It was in a 30 x3 1/2 wheel. I also have a 21" wheel with its hub. I can take that apart too and check it out. The spokes on that one are no good anyway. Between the two hubs, I should be able to put together a matching set of bolts and nuts. The first hub had mis-matched nuts. Both hubs are filthy but the insides were protected from the elements by the installed spindles. I will get back to you tomorrow.

Re: Looking for front hub for wood spoke wheels
The hub looks good inside and has good threads. Both flanges are not flat. It looks like bolts were tightened and spokes swelled? My T has wire wheels, not wood, so I don't know if this is normal. I don't know if these can be flattened. Look at the photos and let me know what you think.

Re: Looking for front hub for wood spoke wheels
I just took apart about 25 wheels. Bent flanges seem to be fairly common.
