Okay, I'm back after about a year away, not because I didn't stop in to see what's going on here, but because I had no issues with the cart set up I had... so that's really a good thing :wai:

However, now I need to replace the rear wheels, and am having some trouble finding what I want at a good price.

Let me start by saying what my build is, its a rock/mover work mule for my property. Its not raced or (or even really taking care of) just used and abused.

The rocks are done being moved and now I'm just using it for lawn work.

I need some cheap rear wheels (tires and hubs) that will accept a 5/8 dia bore for a fixed axle and allow a 4 bolt sprocket connection.

This is really the only requirements, 5/8 bore and allow a direct 4 bolt connect to a sprocket (so it needs to be offset from the hub itself)

This will replace the wheels I have on now, as they are bent up and flat.

This is the only one I have found so far that looks like it will work, but they are a bit small and Id rather not pay for the sprockets as I already have them.

This is the ebay listing number 261584531540
search ebay if you want to see what I am talking about, out of respect for the forum I wont post links here.

I already have the sprockets (better made and were about 26$ a piece) so I would love to find these cheaper without the sprockets if they are available somewhere, or something similar.

Harbor freight sells ones (these item#37767) for like 15 bucks, but they cant be attached to a sprocket (and no they cant be welded either the metal is two cheap) So is there anything like this with an offset 4 bolt connection for a sprocket? Looking around the 15-40$ a piece mark?

Any ideas or options?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks Guys, Just called Gopowersports but he didn't pickup so I can try a bi tlater.

The two links you have posted are similar to the one I have posted from ebay, but are actually even more expensive. Shipped from them those were about 140 for the pair. A bit more then I want to spend for something that may only be used for a couple weeks in the yard.

I can buy the tires (without the sprocket hub connections) as I said for about 15 bucks a piece (hub/wheel tire assembly) but as I have a fixed axle I need to connect my sprocket somehow.

I guess I'll keep looking and try go power sports again in a little.

Thanks

Something to remember in your case, for that part, you can just change out the bearings to 5/8.
Bearings are like 2 bucks.
Maybe a 3/4 or 1" setup is more popular and therefore cheaper?

Thanks Chancer, that thought never crossed my mind, and yes that now opens up a lot of options as I have spare bearings.
