justy 46 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 The Atlas 5000 might be an option or Nigel Ford might do you a set , if you can't get a UH set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justy 46 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 The Atlas are more a 36" representation like what's on a 4000. The UH are bigger as in a 38" . The rim on the Atlas measures 28mm diameter ...the UH is 32mmm.. Tyres on Atlas is 43mm dia. UH tyres are 48mm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justy 46 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 No bother. What type Leyland are you doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Palmer Posted January 17, 2021 Author Share Posted January 17, 2021 it will be a yellow 802 Justin,it wont be anywhere near 884 johns efforts that he is doing at the moment,it will be very similair to the 802 Marshall that Robbo got recently on here ,so plan is a uh 1494 for the cab, mudguards, chassis,i know the chassis isnt accurate and front wheels and tyres from the uh,then im getting a very big helping hand with a bonnet and exhaust,so i need the uh ford 5000 for the rear wheels,Henri Walker hopefully for the decals etc,i have allways wanted a leyland 802,and decided time to get round to getting it done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very good. You could go square dish with one off them too ..like Marge Ford 10 Series or Imber 40 Series, even Britains Sankeys might do from a 6600 that are due again.

Paul Palmer Posted January 17, 2021 Author Share Posted January 17, 2021 thanks again Justin,want to keep away from the square dish ones,the 6600 coming from britains is another idea,but a shame to break that one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson Agri Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Might be worth a message to @tabmodels If he has any from projects in the past or some of his own wheels that would suit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
