Acquired a 1977 rear hub and brake assy.
Stripped, part polished and rebuilt with all new bearings, shoes and seals.
Only problem I had was a dodgy bearing retainer that had to have heat, wd40 an brute force to remove. The David Silver replacement was troublesome as well in that the old retainer had a small taper at the start of the thread and the new one never which was impossible to start on the carrier internal thread. For now the old retainer is back in and Ill have to talk to Silvers.
Nevertheless no big deal its 40 years old.
The trial fitting to the frame was OK so very soon the hub will go of to Hagons for a new wheel and spokes ( current waiting 6 weeks i'm told )

captaink:
Rebearing of the sprocket carrier and all new brake parts

Rear wheel spindle spacers are in good order but I will make 2 new ones in stainless steel
