Am I correct in remembering that the Brat's had an option of dual rear wheels? Anyone got any info on how they accomplished that? Or am I making stuff up in my puny little mind?

I went looking and could't find anything, but that is an intresting idea for a brat though:rolleyes:

If I remember correctly, there were a bunch of companies that made dual wheel adapters for conventional pick-ups, pretty thin on the ground now, there is some stuff still around that I'm sure could be adapted:

Just picked that one out of the air, and certainly not the quality that these folks make:

But, really, how heavy duty would something bolted to a Brat need to be?

I really don't think that was an option. But it could be accomplished with a wheel spacer and another wagon wheel turned backwards and bolted on.

I dunno, I might have just been really tired when I thought I read it... No idea if I actually read it or made it up...

no you are incorrect.

 

 

mcbrat once wanted to customize his brat with an atv dual wheel setup.....

ive seen a few mini trucks that were duallies, would be nifty to see a brat done up like that with the fender flairs and such. id rock that out, but im content with my pugs and wide nitto tires:burnout:

Yeah you know i thought that sounded firmilier too!? And it would be cool! It would be an Aussie thing! And i'm not making fun of Austraila either! I love Aussie.. It's a cool place! Never been there but it's cool!

 

Anyhoo someone should do that!!

I saw an EA81 coupe at the St. Helens mudrun a few years back that had duals front and rear-

I think there was one in Petersen's Off Road about five years ago also.
