Heng Long plastic wheel, installation.

Post by Packy »

Hello..
I have Heng Long Walker Bulldog 3839, I have on order a full set of 6, 3 per side # 39-008 plastic carrier wheels, with axles, I would call them, upper idlers. My problem is has anyone ever changed them out before, as the old axles are molded to the body of the tank on a plastic stud.
Please let me know if anybody knows the answers to my quandary...
Thanks
Tim

Hi Tim,

Though I can not answer your question on how they mount I can tell you the "wheels" you are referencing are called Return Rollers.

Cheers,
Barry

Thanks Barry....
Appreciate the info.
Come to find out,all you have to do is, remove the broken roller, grab the axle stub with a vice grip, or equal, and gently rotate back and forth, out she comes.
P.S. With great fear on the first one.
Thanks again,
