Wheels & Tires / Re: Bolt in replacement wheels?

I'm ashamed it took this long but I seem to have zero spare time to do these things. I don't see how you guys do it.
Anyway... Here is a picture of a Worksman wheel with a simplex axle in it. Also, it's got sealed bearings that fit. The only thing I have left to do it drill out the hole in the drum brake assy to accept the larger axle and get a few 7/16-26 BSC jam nuts to hold it all together. Effectively, it's a "bolt in" replacement wheel. I've got the rear axle as well and I need to do the rear wheel. I need to make sure everything "centers" when mounted but it looks OK with my eyeball.
