I would still like to know why the operating lever was unable to move less than halfway from 'free' to 'lock' and why the hub was locked or should I say jammed. And if it got jammed (say in transit) why? :unsure:

sounds like they have been taken apart & not put back together right

I thought that especially as the bolts were loose, too loose in fact for use on the wheel. Trouble is I don't see how it could be assembled physically incorrectly; it just wouldn't go together. :unsure:

And at a guess i'd say fine, due to most bolts on the jimny are fine thread


Well I can say that they are M8 x 0.75P which is fine. There are apparently two fine pitches, 1 and 0.75. The 0.75P are a lot harder to get.
