towse trading Posted May 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2006 look spot on, how much for a painted set to fit ya-self? will they fit siku large fendts and masseys? hi these take a bit of fitting as i have left a lump of resin on the back so it can be shaped to fit other stub axles or flat chassis ( siku) , not sure on price as this is the first set i have done, i will try another fitting this weekend to see if it will work on other items. dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james f Posted May 27, 2006 Report Share Posted May 27, 2006 blimey nath didn't waste much time did he :D very nice dave ,wouldn't worry about the height ,the only one i have seen seemed to tilt forward , The real ones tilt forward but only because they have to use slightly smaller wheels on the fornt to get the rolling radius right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted May 27, 2006 Report Share Posted May 27, 2006 i guess it would be a pain to reduce the dia of the main whl a tad to loose the height now dave? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
towse trading Posted May 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2006 hi it would be easyer to sit the wheel lower in the body now i have it cast , when the mould fails i will modify a little , some items can be dropped , but untill it is all fitted it is hard to see. dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
