thornycroft wheels and axle

The ten stud wheels limit the number of models into the latter 1920's early 30's. Then with no front brakes that brings back the date to the 20's. The backing plates could have been removed if used as a trailer axle.

The cast name on the bearing caps points again to late 20's as latter had more conical caps.

A search through photos has brought up a number of ten stud pattern wheels, for the Trusty and Sturdy, and related type models some with flat bearing caps, but combining that to the named caps reduces to probably a JJ. The JC model updating the JJ has rounded caps.
