Schwinn 38-40 rear brake or tandem?

[Notagamerguy]

Im slowly collecting parts for a 41 project that im very slowly working on. I picked this up without doing any research. I saw it was a high low schwinn rear brake, similar but not quite like the front. Im curious if i picked up an old tandem hub. Its larger than the other porkchop brakes i have

That’s an early dural rear hub, which isn’t technically correct for a 41. More of a 38 to early 40 piece but still very cool. You are lucky the freewheel is removed, it’s a pain to get off as a loose hub.
