Often the hubcaps are not truly concentric, before pressing on, rotate it to give you the tightest position.

This is what I use, a cut down 3/4" ring spanner, a sharp tap usually works.
It measures 33.5 mm across the flats.

Re: camshaft settings

Now up and running and on the road, all appears fine, I have not pushed it yet, treating it gently, for now, a big thank you for all the help.

Looking forward to the start of a new era on Thursday, it may be a leap too far for some of us, if I dont make it thanks for the memories.

I used one of these each side secured on the inside rear doors on my traveller.
I connected side, brake and turn lights to existing, being LED very little current used.
I am quite satisfied with the outcome.
