    Problems with MGA rear axel to WW hub

    The problem is with connecting them. It seems that teeth which should go into the hub are 0,1mm bigger than they should be and putting under pressure are cutting into the inner teeth of the hub.  Should I just  add  pressure until its in or shoul I cut this extra 0,1 mm of the each teeth?   If I just  add  pressure until  its in, isnt it gonna brake the hub??

    We had this problem in our shop with a Healey 3000 rear hub and had to machine the hub down to fit. It's been a couple of years so I can't remember what we did, but I think we machined the inner diameter out a few thousands. It is definitely a press fit. A good shop or machine shop should be able to help you.
