Title: Larger wheels for OTP?
Post by: 90b4032 on August 21, 2017, 06:57:46 AM

I would like to add casters to my OTP and get larger diameter wheels to level it up. I swear I've seen someone on here with a similar mod on here but can't find it. I took the casters from my performer and put them on the OTP and it looks like I will need 11" diameter wheels to level it. Anyone done this?

Not many options for 11 inch.

This is one.

You could paint the hub to match the grill or the frame.

Those wheels should work well as long as they are for a 3/8" axle.

If the axle hole is too large
you can get bushings at
almost any ACE Hardware.

Just take your axle and wheel with you.
Done this many times for other equipment.
