- Team Associated B5/B5M - AE Hubs to Schelle B5/B5M Hubs -


I took some measurements for myself of the stock AE hubs with 'A' and 'B' inserts to compare with Schelle hub locations. You can figure out how much to shim the Schelle upper to get a position close to an AE setup.

Measurements of stock AE B5M hubs in inches and millimeters

Rear hub nut ‘A’ Rear hub nut ‘B’
Inside edge of hub carrier to ‘A’ location: 0.034in / 0.8636mm ‘A’ location: 0.104in / 2.6416mm
‘B’ location: 0.173in / 4.3942mm ‘B’ location: 0.243in / 6.1722mm
‘C’ location: 0.314in / 7.9756mm


Centerline of hinge pin to ‘A’ location: 0.306in / 7.7724mm ‘A’ location: 0.243in / 6.1722mm
‘B’ location: 0.167in / 4.2418mm ‘B’ location: 0.104in / 2.6416mm
‘C’ location: 0.027in / 0.6858mm

Measurements of Schelle B5M hubs in inches and millimeters

Inner hole ‘A’ Outer hole ‘B’
Inside edge of hub carrier to ‘A’ location: 0.204in / 5.1816mm ‘B’ location: 0.341in / 8.6614mm
Centerline of hinge pin to ‘A’ location: 0.138in / 3.5052mm ‘B’ location: 0.0in / 0.0mm



Schelle ‘A’ location with upper shimmed .03 will equal AE ‘B’ location on hub nut ‘A’
