    I was told these were straight 1200s not 1220s or 1260s 
    seems like I remember reading they were marginal but again not sure. 
     
    thanks

    I have a chance to pick up a set of full lotus 1200 floats. Without rigging.  How would they work on my c model HH with a 582?

    Do you also have the longer axles?  If so I would take them save me building them. 
     
    Thanks again

    I would but it’s too dense and hard to machine.

    Not very bright
    So after trading my 6” wheels for 8” wheels because I wanted to go with the 27” Dessers I then found a deal on a set of 26” Bushwheels so jim was nice enough to trade me the 8” wheels I traded for a pair of sixes.  The new problem is they are 4”x6” and not wide enough. So before I build or buy some spacers does anyone have a set of 6”x6” wheels they would trade for my 4”x6”
     
    thanks

  16. THE MACHINIST added a post in a topic 26” bushwheel ?   

    Jim that is an interesting thought but not sure how one could remove the plastic from inside  the wheels?  These are the ones I got from you and they are mostly solid on the inside not sure if it could be pulled back out the bearing holes?

  18. THE MACHINIST added a post in a topic 26” bushwheel ?   

    I bought those 26” Bushwheels and finally got around to try to mount them and there is about 2 3/4” distance I would need to draw them together to use my avid wheels. Is that possible or do I need to build a spacer?  If I build a spacer then I would have to have a longer axle. 
     
    Thanks
