Z50 Rear Hub problems

the bolts that hold my sprocket in place, well the holes that they go into are stripped, so im guessing i need to replace the rear hub and not the whole rim? i cant find any hubs online, im not sure if i want a old one but the only one i can find is for $150 on ebay, which is a bit steep, any 1 know what i should do? and where i can find a new one for a decent price

You can get time-serts installed in the hub then some new studs and you'll be good as new...What's your location ? Any good shops in your area ?

Re: Z50 Rear Hub problems

4-bolt hubs are from '68 through '79.
3-bolt hubs are from '80 through '99.
XR/CRF50s use 10" spoked wheels.

Your engine serial # comes back as a '68-'69 model

Re: Z50 Rear Hub problems

You'll find 4 bolt hubs used on eBay all the time. If you can't find one you must have discovered the internet yesterday. There is usually one or two up all the time.
