Hi Shawn,

I considered that for my westrailer project, but the cost of bus
spindles and welding up a custom frame was too dear for my resources
at the time. Instead I went with a cheap 40x48 walmart utility
trailer. The one advantage of the small wheels that are on the
westrailer is that they don't interfere with the cabinetry as much as
larger ones would.

Some day I will build an all-metal westrailer, and that one will have
bus wheels on it.

Happy trails,
