Thank you for putting me on to Fremont in Ohio. They did a great job for me on the fan hub and it looks great. They also lined my front brake shoes and got everything back to me quickly.

I second Greg's thoughts about Fremont. They'll do the work on your hub, fast turnaround to boot.

Thank you for the quick replies.

Greg, I noticed a couple of Fremont Auto Parts online. Is the one that made your replacement hub the one listed below?

I like the idea of having one with bearings.

Thanks,

Troy

I love that old original technical details.
Just in case you don?t want to convert into modern bearings: I made good experience with Flame Spraying.

John at Freemont auto parts in freemont ohio makes a replacement
hub, they are very nice and appear stock
uses modern bearings and does away with the little oil sump and pump
I have used one for several thousand miles needing no attention

Hello,

On my 1931 898-A I have a good amount of wear on the radiator fan shaft where the fan hub rides it. I was wondering if anyone has had any luck repairing or building up the shaft to eliminate the play?

Thanks

TR
