Wally-
Once again, the collective memory of this group comes through. Thanks for the
info about the axle length diff. Think I'll try to pair up the correct wheel
sets with the proper trucks and get better results without having to alter
the trucks at all.
Thanks!
Stan

Gentlemen,
Professor Loizeaux informed us a while back that AM and PRS trucks
use NWSL 33" wheels 37767-4 while SHS trucks need #37737-4. There is a tiny
difference in axle length. Before you start reeming be sure you are using
the right wheels. Wally Collins
