It works, but it doesn't come with the special back plate, that you need to separate the hub from the carrier.
The Schley uses 2 bolts that thread through the hub and work against the back plate, and this pushes the hub off of the hub carrier.

I had a duplicate plate made out of 1/2" stainless, and if anyone wants the original Schley back plate, I'll sell it for $10 plus shipping.
