Need casters for 4 engine stands.Where to buy?
I have 4Pontiac V8s,2-400s,2-455s complete.in garage I want portable. I've made the storage stands, now for the casters. I was thinking 3 inch. Should I look at Harbor Freight(I think sometimes quality isnt worth the time)?. Or look on line? They wont be moved often just to clean

I have a bunch of the Costco wire rack casters.

Thanks guys. Funny when I worked at Kennametal all those industrial suppliers catalogs were accessible to me as we used all of them. The only one I kept was a Ryerson.

Northern Tool if you have one near you. They have a big selection of casters better stuff than Harbor Freight and much cheaper than McMaster Carr although McMaster Carr has best quality IMO.

What was nice around here when all the plants were going full tilt. They would take their 'junk' to junk yard in Latrobe, Lattanzios,he had new steel of any kind plus the 'scrap' from the plants ,wheels, carts,anything you could imagine,cheap.Also cars,I got a HD 3.42 posi for my 63 GP, Pontiac heads, all the stuff cheap,$20.00-30.00 range. Now it's all gone.A the good old days.

There’s a Castor store in Madison Heights Mi , try them.

I've pirated some off of shopping carts that were run over by snowplows at our local Walmart. Getting someone to give you permission to remove them is sometimes pretty difficult though.
That being said, Amazon lists them, link: https://www.amazon.com/shopping-cart...acement+wheels I have them on more than one fabricated cart in my garage, they are damn tough. |
How many do you need?
I may be able to get 16 into a USPS FRP |
Ace Hardware sells them also. Check Craigslist too.
|
Menards has lots of casters
|
Thanks again guys. I'm still ckg prices and quality. I did find about 4 at home. Forget where they came from!

Well after searching through a box(there were a lot of small wheels on top of big wheels),I found 8- 5 inch wheels. I have no idea when I bought these wheels. Now I found enough. I guess I got to look first in all my 'stuff'.
