Bruce,

Good point, IIRC the hub to disk / drum bolts are 1/2" x 13 and the wheel studs are 9/16" x 18.

I'm not an Engineer, but I find it interesting that it takes 8 big-ass bolts in an 8" diameter to hold a wheel on.... but that same
wheel's axle is held to the bogey by 4 much smaller bolts set in about a 4" diameter.

Just saying..
