The Big Question

[David Ellery]

Hi Mike, I,ve got a workshop/ operating manual for both the Canadian carrier and Local pattern ( NZ) carrier, and they do not mention anything about your big question. I have noticed that on our local pattern carriers with good rubber that the centre bogie rubber does get chewed a bit by the track horns which may have brought around the thought of moving worn wheels into this position, The only time that this would really occur is when the vehicle is turning hard on a slope and the bogie rubber is hard up against the track horns. On the flat it shouldn't be a problem. Anyway I reckon your best bet is to take it out for a spin (literally) and see what happens. all the best David...
