Post Acad rear brake drum nut
This may be a stupid question, but is the nut which holds the acad rear drum on larger than on a 2cv? I assumed that as the bearings etc are larger the drum nut would be too, but I can't find anyone selling anything other than the 44mm drum nut...

Hope someone can help!

Nut is the same, only outer diameter of bearing is diffrent

lpgo,
I'm fairly sure that the inner bore of an Ami/AK/Acad wheel bearing is also larger than that of a 'standard' A series, even though the nut is the same... :?

I have a rear brake adjusting tool which is too big to fit into the bearing on a standard 2cv rear drum. Therefore, I assumed that the inner diameter of the bearing on a van is bigger than the car.

Is this not the case?
