Got wheel and brake handle. Nice stuff. Gotta take the wheel apart and clean up. Mini combat wheel with nuts and slotted head bolts. I guess needed for mounting solid rubber tire . I'll post when cleaned up and primed for reference.

Thanks, Brian.

Just felt the valve stem hole, so I guess I'm looking for a tube and tire. Anyone know the correct size I'm looking for? Or a possible source? There is Harbor Freight, Northern Tool and Tractor Supply all possibilities.

Currently soaking my nuts.

I have no idea the size. But I'd look at Northern or TSC they both have a variety of tubes and tires for garden and ag equipment. And the quality has ALWAYS been fine for me from TSC, whereas from Horror Fraught the quality MAY be ok. May not be.

If I can't locate the proper dimensions in a post or thread or the manual, I'll take the disassembled wheel to TS or Northern and try some on for size. Got it apart yesterday and managed to save all the original hardware. Sandblast and prime today in case I can't get back to it for a while. In fact, I'm painting two MBT's on the driveway, probably shoot this wheel OD green and be done with it.
