G'day

Many years back when I had my first 100 there was a similar clunk on the
front wheels.

They were just old sports cars then and there was no source for new splines
or wheel centres. The recommended temporary cure was to wrap the spline in
kitchen foil and the more wraps the better. It worked too.

Bad news, If you need to whale on the knockoffs to keep the wheels from
moving your splines are worn out and they need to be replaced. But then you
knew that didn't you?
