| are you sure its 3/4? i guess i need to measure. and i need to get bigger tires on it eventually or at least better for mud. the ones i got are 15's and i want 18's in the front to match my backs. | |

| What I did was weld front rims to the bigger rims or put rear rims and tires on the front with a ton of grease but expect to wear out spindles | |

| take a threaded bolt weld it to the spindle and cut head off. take some murray rear rims 8 inch and slide them on with tires and use one nut to tighten it snug but still spins and another nut to lock that nut on., | |
