There's two different diameters for spanish and Jap. problem is as well that there is a chance they could have been swapped since it left the factory.

You need the internal drum diameter i believe.

Is it just the four nuts holding it on ? As there is a ring of screw heads around it and it doesn't want to budge ! And I don't want to take of unnecessary parts. Thanks.
