ZA27/29 replacement for cast leaded yellow brass (bronze)
(OP)
I have a current application of a bronze hub w 2 ears in combination w a ubolt holding up a sign on a pole that has a galvanized steel threaded pipe going into the hub... Can I replace the hub w a less expensive all zinc piece? Will the cast leaded yellow brass or galvanized steel pipe have corrosion or rust issues with the zinc?

You are getting rid of the brass completely, right?
Fastening a galvanized pipe to a cast Zn part is no problem.
Though as has been pointed out, if you need more strength just use a galvanized cast iron part.
Then everything in the system will be galvanized and have similar corrosion resistance.

Leaded brass does not have very good corrosion resistance.
A picture of the assembly with the parts labeled would help us to help you.
