Check the fit on the trailer to make sure it is good.  The trailer looks like it was designed for a V-drive.

hey all....i am looking for one wheel for my trailer like the turbines on the pics above....

Title: Re: 1980 eliminator 21
Post by: IRRebel on July 01, 2010, 02:56:46 AM

I Likey that one!!!  :thumbup:

You missed a pretty good deal on 4 of those wheels/tires, came with a boat and a trailer too! For what Riverdad sold it for, was worth it to you for spare wheels and tires....and shit can the rest. :screwy:

Keep your eyes peeled. They're out there.... In the meantime, enjoy the float!
