Bruce.

How about wearing a Bob and Doug McKenzie Lumberjack Shirt with Fox prints on it, while eating back bacon and pancakes?

In preparation for moving the Otter inside I needed to change out a few of the wheels for ones that hold air.The one drum hub is badly cracked all the way around l, however I do have a replacement.

It was a fun two hours in the yard. My wife always wants some help working in the yard….

What would crack a hub like that? Being dropped with no tire?

Anyway, nice to see yard lawn ornament brought inside.

At least it was easy to free up the brake. Just smash the drum completely !

Barry and Stefan both checked out the Otter project. Stefan and his father Dirk have supplied a lot of the smaller hard to find items to keep these vehicles going. Barry’s help and knowledge has also been extremely beneficial. It’s guys like these that make this forum such a great place.
