9 bolt hubs for tapered axle?

[MMZAck]

Take a look at these pictures. Anybody able to make a lightweight 9 bolt hub for a smooth tapered axle with a keyway? These are Massey Harris standard tread axles that are 2-3/4in. Building another 101 puller this winter and thought I would start now to see if hubs are even feasible for these axles. There were really heavy cast centers that were on these axles. I cut the hub out of one of them and kept it in case it would be needed as a template.

Love to hear all thoughts out there.

If the 101 is built anything like a 44, you could take the axle and housing from a row crop tractor and they will fit right in the standard housing. Check it out. The 333 and 444 model Massey row crop tractors had tapered with a key 9 bolt hubs, but I'm not sure of the size or taper, maybe would fit??

The standard taper is smaller then the 333-444 row crop hubs.I machined out a tapered sleave to make up the diff. to put the row crop hubs on a standard axle.
