 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!

 Re: Acad rear brake drum nut
Nut is the same, only outer diameter of bearing is diffrent

 Re: Acad rear brake drum nut
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... ken lpgo wrote: Nut is the same, only outer diameter of bearing is diffrent

 Re: Acad rear brake drum nut
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?
