That type is designed to replace a wheel spacer. It is a "fit all" and not a direct bolt on replacement. First you need to make sure it fits your axle size....most newer ones will fit 3/4 and 1 inch. You need to measure the thickness of the bracket and the spacer it is going to replace...chances are they will not be the same. You will have to get an additional spacer or stainless washers to make up the difference. After you have the correct parts, you will have to partially or completely remove the rear axle depending on which way it is installed....Good Luck

Ok thank you,
So if it only fits where it touches, then that makes me feel a lot better, I thought this was a Science,
I have taken some pictures showing the inside walls of the axle, and hope the size of the axle can be determined from there,
I measured the size of the Allen key nut , will I need a key or can I use a monkey wrench
The plate holder bracket looks too thick to bolt on to the axle, it looks like it will take up all of the thread
If you make this up as you go along, can I use this washer and rubber bung with a long bolt through the axle bolted to the other side of the axle
I'm sorry I have not found a way to make my pictures big yet,

The bracket replaces the spacer marked in the picture
