Hello,
I've just joined the jec and I hope a knowledgable person or persons can offer me some advice.
I've got a 1965 daimler 2.5 v8 and I want to convert the rear hubs to splined ones so that I can fit wire wheels.
I've tried 2 different garages and a jaguar specialist, and nobody wants to touch it.
I understand it's a ball ache of a job but can someone recommend a garage or individual who can do this? I'm near Rochester in Kent (uk) but obviously I'm prepared to travel to get this done.
Thanks Sean

Thanks for the reply. To be honest, I do as much as I can myself but I know you need a hub puller (which I dont have) and from the limited research I have done, I understand that it's a complete bastard of a job .
I'll give them a ring

I've just thought ..... do you do private work? Do you work on other peoples cars?

Sorry no , things can go wrong , take time , I guess that's why people charge so much !
I like to take my time , do a little have a cup of tea , then have another go !
I have read Horror stories about people trying to get the hubs off , 10's of tons heat and the like , I had non of it , just fitted the puller , done up very tight , a few hit's on the end of the puller with a sledge hammer and off they popped !
If you want a lend of my puller we could come to some arrangement !

Thanks for the reply, and thankyou for the offer of using your puller.
I'll give four ways a ring later and see if I can get some idea of cost and how soon they can do it.
After that I will be in touch.
Thanks Sean
