Tuff II's had steel first, then alloy, then plastic font hub followed eventually by plastic rear hub too.  Skyways were also made under license in UK and Australia with both having bolt-in alloy or steel (coaster) hubs some US made hubs and some locally made hubs (e.g. Starfire hubs in Australia)  :daumenhoch:.

you could also buy a bolt in coaster or a bolt in freewheel hub to convert either way bedix or shimano coaster remember drilling out loads of coaster hubs to put freewheel on

wasnt there also sealed hub kits you could get back in the day? solid milled aluminium discs essentially - you just drilled out the old hub and bolted the new one in....or did I just make that up... ??? ???
