Eternal: Thanks, I thought about doing that just after it got dark..
flyerncle: Sounds right. I will post photos just to make sure. Looking around I've only seen bearing carrier repair kits (the bearings) rather than the bearing carriers themselves. Look forward to your input once I've got some photos..

Bearing carriers for drum brakes are basicly rectanglular

Are you missing these? It's a drum brake backplate with the bearing carrier shown in the centre. The four bolts fasten onto the uprights.

Gary to the rescue.........
 Ebay parts are cheap as Talon has posted,new the hubs are £40 ish and flanges £136 or there abouts and still available form Ford. Be carefull which ones you buy as disc and drum are different and the width of the carriers are also different between bolt on and push in.

Thanks to everyone who replied. Looks like I need a pair of disc brake type hub carriers.
This is a steep (but very satisfying) learning curve. Hopefully one day I'll be able to answer some questions as well as asking them! All the photos I've seen for disc type hub carriers have the wheel flange as well. For disc brakes is it all one piece? I'm guessing that this is the case and the axle I have is from a drum setup and so the flange is separate from the carrier (so the carrier is part of the backplate like in Gaz05's photo) Last edited by rincewind23 : 21st April 2011 at 12:01 PM.

Backplate and carrier are seperate items and adapters are available for disc conversion.
