Did you get a childs cot? I have one that should fit.
-
no i do not have a childs cot, but i would love one!!
all i have are the little brackets it hooks too, are you in a rush to sell it
i will be in van for the great canadian show and could have cash buy then.
tring to get picks up, cool
figured out the pic editor' so i had some boxter wheels i traded for these ones.

more wheel pics, i am in love with them
right now the 7" fronts and 9" rear
can change them up and have 7.5" and 8.5"
that still a bit bug so i tracked down the og company, there still at it after 32 years, once i complete mock up of the brakes i hope to have enough cash to order at least 1 set of lips. that gives me two more possible sizes for a total of 6 different sizes. i really want two set and i can get it fitting just right with no polishing needed for under $600 cad before shipping
that rear wheel is a little tight with no trans, so im sure ill need those smaller lips as i have a 3.5" and a 2.5" now for the outer half
-
Keep the pic's coming!!! I love it!
