Or off an old piece of farm machinery. Looks like a very solid swing away

4 bolt sounds like small jap car. Other than that the sky's the limit on possibilities.

If my old man doesnt know what something is off he always says that it is off an aeroplane....

and in this case I think he's right! -Because it certainly isnt on an aeroplane :)

Escorts and early 4 cylinder Toranas also had 4 bolts - but given that you're not likely to find many of those any more, "small jap car" is probably a good summary.

Go have a dig around a wrecker's yard - you should find something you like.

Cheers,

That looks just like a rear hub from a drum braked Corolla circa 1989-1996.

Thats the ticket. A hub centre, without the flange. Complete with bearings for under $40, how could you lose. Its exactly what I have on mine, except mine was turned up to suit. I would guess these have been asked for so many times, for spare wheel carriers, they have decided to specifically make them. Finally, someone who sees a need, and caters for it.

That looks like an early jeep jeeroke tail light so I reckon you would find it on one of those. :lol:
