So are Lee's, and he has Mato wheels. And I'll be fitting mine to Heng Long boogers

I have been sent a screen shot of the early 5 spokes for $6 but not sure of the scale till I find the website my self

Wow, that's a lot of money for a screen shot. . . .

I bet they are 1/35th

As Mick pointed out, I have also used the heng long bogies with a set of mato wheels, I chose to use them as they have rubber tyres and are a little wider which was good as I've also used a set of mato tracks. The first 2 pics show the converted bogies and the last pic show the mato wheels fitted but before I converted the bogies, this doesn't make any difference to how the wheels fit though

Cheers, Lee.

Don't forget to drill out the spokes on the idler wheels also if you've not already done so

Cheers, Lee.

Ok, so I've just taken an up to date pic, this is how it stands now, notice that I've also added a set of lifting rings to the first and last bogies on both sides

Cheers, Lee.

What make of idlers are they Lee?

Mr Model Builder 4, you really need your own build thread. . . . So I can steal all your ideas

They are a set of metal mato idlers Mick but I substituted the front of them with the original plastic piece with a little modding as it was easier to drill the holes in and it still retains its strength as the main part is metal

Cheers, Lee.

Ps. ( I'll get around to starting a thread on it one day )

My issue with my idlers are they are metal and I have no plastics only the road wheels are plastic
