I also made the conversion from a bush to bearing set up some time ago and need a hub.
I have since changed vehicles and have made a rear bar, twin wheel carrier now needing two hubs.
I obtained two Holden HQ stub axle and hubs with bearings to suit.
I machined the hub down but left a section so that it is part of the locking system.

Hub machined down with locking holes drilled.

Wheel carrier locked with spring load pin into the flange.
This might be a better option than the flangeless hub.
Why I went for the Holden HQ hubs and bearings is that they should be available at a corner store. Compared to the wheel bearings for the Troopie the HQ ones are very small.
