[Healeys] Radius arm replacement BJ8

[dwernervt at gmail.com]

I replaced the two front bolts last year, tapped out easily. I tapped out the left rear bolt this morning, cleaned it up, anti-seized it and put it back in. The right rear is stuck hard. I think I’ll leave it for now. 
I see you have the hub bore diameter. Mirek is quick!
Thanks,
Dan
