I have done the same

It's a Chinese Makita copy,

About £25

Plus the same for a battery and charger

I find it OK for hobby use,

Aliexpress, lots of fun toys you never realised you wanted!!!

Is it just the hub assembly and minus the spokes rim etc ?

If so, you'll probably need to anchor it with a chain to get adequate leverage on them. 

As above though, a rattle gun can help you. I bought a makita 1/2 drive one that's beennreslly useful, along with common batteries we've got with other tools.

A good heating with a gas torch and a bash with the trusty impact driver and the job is done.

The nuts are a bit chewed up; do I need special nuts as replacements or are any nuts ok? The ones I have seen online all seem to be flanged and some are nyloc.

Bryanj:
They are thinner than normal
