How do you know when the wheel bearings are no good? are they like front wheel bearings on a car, loose when you move the tire back and forth when jacked up? Aidan

Hi, Yes, when you rock the wheel back and forth there is noticable play in the bearing, front idler bearings are the most critical, two of these are the correct size anyway, I fitted two plus the correct size bearing, so have spacers on all of my road wheels except the idlers. I left the shields in too so they dont require regreasing.

This is a pretty old thread, but I thought a small update wouldn't go amiss:
The wheels that Roy von Doorp supplied and the set he re-tyred for us have been great, one set has gone now as I sold the engine with the trolley. The other set is still in use on our Ruston engine, and the original set that we modified with strip rubber tyres we still have in the workshop. ![]() Our trailer that we take the engine to shows in: ![]() Peter
