Dear Mr. Anspach:

The trucks come assembled with Kadee wheelsets (.110) and are
not offered with the Code 88 wheel tread at this time. The truck
sideframe castings, which are a pewter alloy, are soldered to the
truck bolster. I am sorry, but I am afraid there is no easy way to
change out the wheelset. I cannot recommend bending the sideframe
to remove and replace the wheelset as it may result in breakage of
the sideframe. If I can be of further assistance please let me
know. Thank you for your interest.

Regards,

Jeff Stone

Hello-

Are your trucks available with wheels with .088" wide treads, and if
not, are the trucks assembled in a manner that the wheel sets could
be
easily changed out?

Thank you so very much.
