Hi everyone,
A slightly different request for help here. I have a box trailer for which I have no spare wheel. I was told it was a caravan wheel originally but have been unable to track down anything remotely similar.
After pulling the wheels and hubs off of the trailer to investigate further, I discovered that the hub assemblies are 'MOWOG' items, so that narrowed the field somewhat. Having measured up the hubs and studs etc I think there is a good chance that a Land Crab wheel may fit. This is by no means certain yet and I'm hoping that someone here may be able to confirm or enlighten me somemore. The existing wheels are 5 stud wheels and are fitted with 185/60 R14 tyres. The studs measure 1/2 inch in diameter and appear to be on a 5 inch PCD. The central hole in the wheel is approx. 76mm dia.
Now here is the 'ask' : Can anyone confirm if these wheels are indeed Land Crab wheels or maybe Maxi wheels? If I can establish that then I would also be after aquiring one if at all possible - all expenses / carriage paid obviously.
Hoping someone can help as I have so far drawn a complete blank.
Thanks
Digbee

Hi Digbee,
5 x 5" PCD, 14" from 1967 onwards, 13" before. They are the same as Rover P6 and SD1 wheels, if that helps to expand your choice.
Maxi wheels won't fit - 4 stud fitting and 13" wheel.
I regret that I've no spares at the moment. If you get no joy, I can supply you with the LOCI spares chap's details - he may be able to help.
Chris.

Hi Chris,
Thanks for the info, that certainly should help expand the net somewhat.
I may well get back to you regarding the LOCI spares chap as I have a feeling these are getting to be a bit like hen's teeth.
Thanks again.
Digbee.
