Not sure if I have the correct name for it here , but its the threaded shaft on the stub axle that the staked nut goes onto to hold the hub in place.
I've just replaced my rear shoes and bought new hub nuts. The drivers rear side one needs force to go on (not threading it but not far off) proberly due to previous castle nut not being unstaked properly and then reused so its done some slight damage to the thread.
The nut goes on but not freely using finger pressure like it should but I reckon it'll be fine when staked.
Just wanted to know if that threaded shaft is replacable or would I be looking at a new stub axle.
Hope that makes sense and cheers for any replies !
