Right Guys, thanks to kevins Persistence i have got the price down to £59.75 per wheel this price only if we can collate 15 wheels. does this interest anyone any further ? i can produce some, i know kevin can produce possibly six

(Kevin i cant get any lower than that matey i will show you the email so you know i am making zilche on this for myself...not that i intended to make anything for myself in the first instance )

My contact says with 15 wheels he can justify his workers doing a "Bulk Session" to get them produced and ready to go back to owners.

this price is based on the fact we have:-

1) the bearings removed and the grease cleaned out

2) The damaged remains of the rubber being removed


at the minute the wheels we will be running are the road wheels ie the 20" diameter (CTL / TL 94 type)

pending on how everyone (if anyone) feels we can make a run of idlers in the future.


let me know what you think guys, remember the road wheels are the same as T16's so those with T16's needing new wheels might want to jump in on the act too.


EDIT: Martyn if you get your front idlers done ala road wheel then turn them down on a lathe would this get you sortid quicker ? if not i am willing to remove my idlers off my hull if yours are ready to let go it will keep you going until we can sort you out some more ?



cheers

Richie
