OHC front hubs & uprights/stub axles

Hi everyone! Hope you're all well. I'm looking for a pair of OHC uprights & hubs. Is there anyone who could help me on this one? Am I correct in assuming the stub axles are of a larger diameter?

Cheers. Leigh.

The OHC stub axles are the same diameter as the OHV Viva ones. The Firenza Droop Snoot uses the FD Ventora uprights which have a bigger diameter stub axle but they are extremely hard to find now. Things like the Ventora bottom suspension arms, steering arms, hubs, bearings, ball joints and discs need to be sourced too. All those are rare now too.

Did you mean to say that they're the same diameter as the OHV Viva ones?

Hi David. Thank you for that information!

I have these parts which will need a good clean and some new hub bearings
