Used car Moving Body Wheel Set for B body

[tallhair]

I'm looking for front and rear set of body wheels set to roll a B body around the garage once the suspension is off. They are pretty expensive new so I thought I'd ask if someone is done with a set and willing to sell to me for my Coronet project.

Below is uscartools brand but I don't care what brand they are as long as they work reliably. Home made ok too. Or if someone has a link to another brand that doesn't cost a fortune I'd appreciate it too. I'd like front and rear but definitely want the front set if I can afford them in the budget.

Got to be careful where the casters were made. China made don't last very long. I have a set wheels that look like the ones in the pic that have the different color tread and 5 years later, the tread cracked all to pieces and fell off. I'm so tired of **** from China!!! I made a large base dolly from wheels from a heavy duty tool box using angle iron for a frame and it's now 20+ years old. The wheels are not as large so if your floor is a little rough, it will not roll as easily but at least they are still whole.

Sounds like a great idea Cranky but I'm looking for something bolt on. I don't know how to weld and don't have a welder . I'm hoping somebody has some that they no longer need.

Here's another seller of the casters - got a set from them at a local show ( saved shipping costs ) . . .

A little bit less . . . but not much . . . and they're in Indiana ( not sure how close they are to you )

Thanks man. These things don't seem like they should cost this much but I'm sure it's all in the casters but I don't know why casters cost as much as they do either.

Looks like this brand are $90 bucks cheaper if you get them w/o paint or powder coat and apparently red and neon green costs more to PC than grey our blue for whatever reason.

Anyone have a nice set of these they are willing to part with? I'm concerned with looks as longs as they are solid and work smoothly.
