Thank you all for the answers I received in regard to putting wire wheels on
a TD, but apparently I did not make my question clear. When I receive the
"Factory Original TD Wire Wheel Converstion Kit" in approx 2 weeks, I am
told that I must also purchase some bearings, seals, etc. However, I do not
know exactly what parts to order. In the Moss catalog for TF wire wheels,
they list on page 21 for the front wheels:
#17 125-400 Bearing, outer hub
#29 264-150 LOCKTABS, brake drum
#31 264-410 RETAINER, grease
Are these the correct parts and are they ALL required, especially are the
LOCKTABS required for the conversion kit? The bearings seems to be the same
as currently used on my disk wheels; however, I plan to replace these as
well.
Since the rear wheels are placed on the splined axle, there appears to be no
additional or replacement parts required (as long as the splines are not
worn).
Thanks and have a great weekend
