One completed wheel with some fake lugs mounted. The shop got a little cold after painting and may have frozen the paint before it dried, causing the rough appearance. |

A side view of the wheel. With attachment chain, only the center of the wheel bears any weight, so I used two oak 3/4" boards glued together and cut those to 3" diameter. The MDO is glued and brad nailed to the oak. |

A view of a "completed" swing arm. This one was actually scrapped due to the wheel bolt not being square to the arm. The small bolt goes through the hull. |
|
|
|
|
The wheel bolt needed to be long enough so the shoulder would protrude enough to snug up to the swing arm. |

A view of the suspension from the interior of the hull. The Tyng system makes for a very clean and neat install. |
