Both my rear hub clamps on my 1950 B had a strip of sheet metal under them. My question is should they be there? it looked like an add on job, but were they nessesary? do I need to get new clamps?

Please help!

Karl

I believe clooney is correct, that is a old farmers trick to help them come loose , also as he said the wax paper works better

On my 40 B I have to have sheet metal under the hub clamp on one wheel or I cannot tighten it down enough to keep the wheel from moving on the axle. Without it the clamp just pulls up against the wheel center. This has worked very well for me, I use three peices so it's almost impossible to see it's there.

Karl, that is an old farmers trick to make the clamps come off easier at a later time, it works good. I usually use wax paper on them now instaed of tin, works just as good if not better & is easier to hide when the clamp is painted.

probably more than making them easier to remove, the reason is that your splines are worn to the point that they used these for shims....
