Anyways, it was a real CF. Lucky I had a spare wheel, I just didn’t have a spare hub. After a bunch of running around a po-dunk town, we cobbled up enough tools and materials to make this and get me home. (launched on 3 mothor fooker!!!) anyways, I’d like for to have 4 wheels to look the same. Not really interested in buying a new set of wheels. I’m looking for a steel chrome with the black Alan bolts 14” Reply Report Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good pictures to show someone that says "What do you think about a single axle trailer". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the whole hub and wheel came off with the outer portion bearings? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The castle nut and cotter pin stayed as well, but they were pretty ground up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked up a wheel and tire for @Greengo that looks the same but don't think he ended up using it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a bit of a drive and that’s pretty expensive for used wheels but I may have to get that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A family friend of ours lost their son because of this on the way home from Lake Mead. A boat trailer lost its wheel and went right through his windshield killing him instantly, Kevin was only 19 years old. RIP Kevin To this day, I always think about a tire coming at me from on going traffic. If you ever see one going down the road on its own, please nerf it to the side of the road, It could save someone's life. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
