Out of interest, I've been watching the restoration of these WW1 period vehicles by a couple of friends. Both these types had bronze bush wheel bearings and you can imagine the heavy mileage of the bus at least. Ron

Interesting Wheel
Bought these spare wheels a short time ago and have just got around to cleaning up. Not only are they both solid bushes but one has both part numbers TL17 and TL94 cast into it. I am in two minds as to weather to leave the bushes in or change them for ball baring's as I would like keep as original as poss. I know there is a mod stating to change them when serviced but as there is hardly any ware and I do not intended too retake northern Europe in the next couple of years, is there any necessity to change. Any thoughts?
Cheers Stephen

As you are probably unlikely to go ploughing through mud and sand and will only do minimal mileage as well as keeping them well greased, then go ahead and use the bushed wheels. My thoughts! regards, Richard

Thanks Richard, that's what I thought. I have only managed about 200 yards in the last year. Cheers Stephen

They should cope with double that!
Regular greasing is the thing, as Richard said, and it gives you time to round up some bearings at a better price.
