Sounds like a lot of work, possibly someone this weekend could check for WSN TIGER wheels. They are a great set of wheels as they are rubber lined and individually spaced. Maybe some one has upgraded to metal and will have a set to sell reasonably cheap. They do work well.

Sounds good,the WSN Tiger wheels,where does one get them,I am aware that mato sells them and someone had posted that they were not worth the money,these wheels for the WSN tiger are not the same ones? thanks for your reply Blake.
I just notice where you are from, are there any tank clubs around ,I'm planing to move there in the future. thanks Wayne

Wayne, the set I am talking about are the factory set that came on the older Tigers. Their plastic but much better detail. Another member sent me a set several months back. I use DU-BRO 3.5mm shoulder bolts for axles and tapped the control arms to the same thread. Which lower hull do you have? I've used the Asiatam Tiger Hull but the H/L hull with metal control arms can be set up with threaded control arms. What part of the country do you live in now? Blake

I have 3 stock heng long hull and 1 Asiatam metal hull.metal swing arms. im intrected in using it on the stosk hl hull. I have not seen much as far as WSN parts for sale on the net ,nor have i seen an WSN tiger 1.these DU-BRO 3.5 mm shoulder bolts for the axles where did you pick them up? I in S.I.N.Y. I have family in Kodak and Knoxville.
