Need a cart for a 26" kettle
« on: February 07, 2016, 02:59:53 PM »
Movers damaged the legs on mine a few years back.  I fixed it and it lasted until tonight.  Since I'm going to have to do something with it, I wanted to see if anyone knows of an after market cart I can put it on.   Love this thing and don't to invest in a new one.  Not a fan of the tri legs anyway.  Anyone?

A few have put there's into modified Ranch cart
I'm only 2 or 3 kettles away from being that creepy guy down the street with all the Webers

How old is the grill? Might be covered under warranty….

What would you do with the rest of the ranch kettle tho?  Seems a waste.

Ah hah!  It looks like you have to buy each part individually?

I just ordered the axel from e-replacement parts. Cut it to size. The caster wheels and inserts I got a better deal from Home Depot online. Order the ones for the gas grills.

It will all come in a coffin sized box with enough packing paper to fill an 85 gallon recycle toter!
