Sometimes the numbers don’t match as they were made by more than one company and also for different makes of car also.
I've managed to take some dimensions but obviously cannot take any major diameter measurements as its still fitted to the car. If you look at the attachment I have made the dimensions into a quick drawing take and lok and see what matches up.

I have asked around and come up with a good but used wheel.

Hi Marcel, I believe that some “Shimming” may be required to centralise the Worm Wheel, do you have any knowledge re these items ?
Cheers Al 👍

Not much experience but I believe brass shims were placed between the outer casing and side plate.
