HO Metal Wheel Set Up-Grades

  by Chuck Walsh
 
Take a look at www.reboxx.com a leading afer market wheel manufacturer.
Click on products. Reboxx makes over 40 different axle lengths and if you
follow the recommendations on their chart the up-grades are the right fit.

No more guessing between KD,P2K,IM etc and no more drop outs.
Pay particular attention to the spread in roll test numbers. I took my old beater Athearn 72' three axle talgo truck passengers out of retirement.

SLICK!
