S&S machineworks - order direct?

Yup; I’ve already got a plan brewing for some skateboard wheels. The stock ones on the case are crap anyway. I can improve upon the design for sure

When you do please share, I've got two of those cases.

This is what I got to replace my broken wheels on the gray case:

50x18 wheels, need to dremel the slots about 1mm to clear the bolts, takes 1 second each.

thanks muz, good to know.

i should have something to post in the next week or so with what i've done.

for those following along in the bleachers....

i ordered the amazon wheels muz listed, and went to work getting them on the case today. the molded plastic inserts to the case contain solid axles, so those needed to be cut off via dremel cut-off wheel, and openings for the longer replacement axles cut into the case, but other than that - we're rolling on some shiny new wheels, ready for a trip out west next week.

this is going to be awesome compared to dragging the case around with a bum wheel.

oh, and of course when given the choice, i went with the multi-colored ones.

I didn't realize this thread had been dug up from the spring. I'm pretty sure the seals only come with the couplers intended for welding, not the lugged couplers
