the showman 4,074 #1 Posted September 2, 2015 Found a pair of wheels for the front of a future Wheelhorse project. Seems to be the latest mod to fit hubs and narrow rims to the later Wheelhorses. These are heavy duty ones and in good shape 3 diggerjames, Alan and Triumph66 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stormin 4,458 #4 Posted September 2, 2015 Are the three holes round the centre threaded? If they are, they'll be for pushing the two halves apart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You should have got them as well, plus back plates etc. You'll need brakes when you fit a V8. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
