While rear hub assemblies from late 1954 5 bolt rear axles to end of
production are interchangeable, they are not all the same.

Early 1954 cars from C221536 used hub ATC7240 with 5 BSF bolts while later BN1
and BN2 from C222571 used hub ATC7256 with UNF bolts. This had a plain surface
where the axle shaft face met and used just a paper joint gasket.

Later cars used hub assembly ATC7595. This hub has a groove cut into it for
the "O" ring ATC7588 plus the paper joint gasket that helped seal the joint.
You will want this hub
