Evening all,
I’m messing with a set of Exacton’s as a side project.
Am I correct to think that they is supposed to be a steel insert pressed into the bolt/stud holes?
Circled red appears not to have one, yellow appears to.
If so could anyone furnish me with the ID?
Thanks in advance.
Shane

I ended up ordering a wheel nut for the wheel which fitted the hole minus the suspected sleeve.
I suspect the other three holes have grown with corrosion and retained whatever sleeve was on the wheel nuts previously used, would like confirmation for peace of mind tho.

I always tell folk to look at the rear, if the holes are round then all is ok,
if not , problem
