Fed Ex dropped one off Sat. from jegs?best price I could find with shipping. The bolts for the casters take a 1/2"-13 stem. I bought 5" casters off amazon for $45 with shipping (two locking,two just swivel link follows).
Fitment was dead on to engine, great finish on them (didn't feel like I needed to give them a coat of rattle can before assembly) .
Couple ******* though . the holes for the cross bar are dimpled in requiring four more washers then included.
The included mountning bolts do not have any storage nuts welded on the frame( less expensive cradles for other makes have 'em and the bolts don't get lost...) I will probably weld some on in the future. These caster wheels are the bomb. zerc fittings wheel locks also lock direction of wheel ball bearing on the wheels and the swivel...http://www.amazon.com/Threaded-Stem...W3XBKSRP#biss-product-description-and-details
I used construction fir. See attached photo. Dimensions (left to right):

sides = (3 & 4) 2x6x22 3/4".
bottom = (5&6) 2x4x25 3/4".
24-#8x3" bugle head wood screws. 4 at corners, 2 to attach each end of bottom pieces.
Casters of your choice. I prefer steel as they do not develop flat spots while parked.

I had one of the engine cradles that Andy F (AR Engineering) made. Bought it through Hughes Engines. I sold the engine and the guy wanted the cradle too, so I sold it to him. I went to order another and they no longer make them. I contacted Andy F and he said he had no plans to make more?
