Re-Tiring Status
Guys,
First, thanks for the clarification that the front and rear bogies are 20" in diameter. Unfortunately, stripping the old rubber from the bogie, turning the rim down, OD'ing the fork lift tire, boring out the steel sleeve on the inside of the fork lift tire, parting to width and pressing the assembly together took a lot more time than anticipated. The bill came in at almost $600. It looks good, is firmly secured to the rim and should work for the next 100 years. Bottom line - carrier restoration isn't cheap. Regards, Richard
