Hi, Does any one know the difference between an XT M756 Rear hub and a XT M756A rear hub? More specifically are the freehubs interchangable?

here we go,

TECHDOCS.SHIMANO.COM "http://techdocs.shimano.com/media/techdocs/content/cycle/EV/bikecomponents/FH/EV-FH-M756-2099C_v1_m56577569830764294.pdf"

A type

TECHDOCS.SHIMANO.COM "http://techdocs.shimano.com/media/techdocs/content/cycle/EV/bikecomponents/FH/EV-FH-M756-A-3295_v1_m56577569830772106.pdf"

Looking at that I'd say yes, although the spacing may be a bit out as the cone/lockrings are different on the DS.

As long as the actual hub is the same I can transfer everything else from one to the other...

An update for anyone interested...

There are differences between the hubs, the bearing seals are different so a bit of mixing and matching is required. needed to keep the old axle race on the non drive side but the new one on the drive/freehub side.

Same applies to Deore 525/525A if anyone's interested in swapping bits on those as well.
