Flynlo Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 (edited) This trailer could easily be made from the current AMT lowboy kit by removing the third axle and adding the folding outrigger brackets.sub 1/32 scale spoked wheels to replicate those shown on this rig Edited April 20, 2017 by Flynlo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 (edited) That might be a Rogers or a Talbert lowboy? I mastered this little heavy duty, three spoke wheel in 1/25 specifically for lowboy trailers like that. They have since been "modernized" with a tubless wheel ring and much better tires. (the ones in grey resin and the updated ones) I think the tube type wheel ring is still an option for them though.You can purchase them from Jamie Rahmoeller at www.moluminum.com He has outriggers I mastered as well.

landman Posted April 21, 2017 Author Share Posted April 21, 2017 These are the outriggers I mastered and Jamie sells. I don't see either the outriggers or the wheels on his site. would I have to ask for them specifically? Would the wheels be 18"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would the wheels be 18"?Send him an email, he has them. I think the three spokes are 15". I mastered a couple different 18" two hole wheels that he sells as well. His email should be on the website.
