Front wheels

(1/1)

snowgroomer:
What do I need to do to put a set of front wheels on my 1956 R12? Can I use one of the middle bogies for this. I am just trying to make it easier to move around while doing the restoration

Cranman:
Well if you have the front suspension on and you don't have extra wheeels you could move a centre wheel from the back up front to get it around the shop ok. On the older woodies there is a clamp on wheel that is easily made for this purpose.

  Cranman would you have a picture of the clamp on wheel that you use on the woodies ? I could use it right about now. I am putting 4 wheels on her for now to help carry the weight of the engine/trans. I am hoping to start with the wood this fall & could use all the space I can get.

Snowgroomer,
  In woodies section my pcs show a small wheel in place of the Ski on the truck that it was delivered on. Simple bolt through the ski leg with a spacer and a small wheel .It works great for moving around the yard to the shop. The pic barley shows the wheels  , sorry.
