Cox Baja Bug / Dune Buggy Rear Wheels

2018.12.23 - Added files for front wheels These replacement wheels are specifically designed for the vintage Cox Baja Bug and Dune Buggy. I had them manufactured through Shapeways as a precautionary measure, since my 3D printer has not yet arrived. The new wheels will undergo testing once the printer is received. Each part of the wheel is available separately in .stl format, allowing for adjustments to be made to achieve optimal printing results. The tolerances on these replacement wheels are extremely tight, requiring a significant amount of force to snap them together. To facilitate this process, I aligned the parts and then pressed the assembly together using a socket on top of an installation tool placed over concrete on a piece of cardboard. It is highly recommended that you print the installation tool to prevent damage when pressing the assembly together with a socket. The replacement wheels are also designed to be difficult to disassemble, much like the originals.
