Would I be right in guessing you don’t like ‘Trilex’ wheels?
Ross.
You got it ,Ron. Must’ve been a nightmare to keep 'em tight on those rough roads. I’ve still got my wheelbrace & patent crowbar for those things in the cellar.

I think you blokes must have had a bad run with your wheels. I spent a while working as a fitter on road trains and we never had any dramas with Spyder hubs,the same go’s with trucks and trailers here in NZ. Once fitted we would re-check them after a few K’s,but the ‘Cleats’ would keep tension on the nuts preventing them from coming loose. I think they are a good thing,quick and easy to change and lighter to handle.
Great pics Ash mate,really like the Patrick photos.

Here is a photo of Dave Brookers 141 when we were en-route to Lisbon in about 1987.
And here is ROO 108W in a new paint job, receiving some TLC in Istanbul by Phil, when Roy Bradford had it.
Complete with Bling Bling Turkish hubcaps !!
Mark Stewarts 141"Long-line" and Keith Hills 141 sandwiching me and my Scania “Light”. Parked up at Qatar Navigation yard in Doha.
