However I think Peter has sold all his caps. You will have to find some one that bought some extras ones. Do your rims have the spring clips? D Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic.

..M.P.: I believe one of our advertisers, "Wally's World." May have
cps along with the Tee Nee stuff I thought he offered. His wife handle maybe Silver Moon. ? , BUT I heard he was sick lately & cut back .?? ( Dayton, OHIO).

.. I can say weekend Flea mkts is the place to score , Last Sat I got Four N.O.S. in bags for $ 1 total . ..YES, Spare members comment above also valid , As I believe Andrew was offered a set
from our wood AOMCi friend. ? E-Bay would be asking full retail. IMO.

thanks guys

I will check the "Whitewall Tires" thread

Frank I didnt need to replace my shocks they were still in great shape

as happenstance would have it this morn at 4:AM there was a set of original Holsclaw baby moons with the logo stamped in them they were only @ $9.00 I bid $87 and was beat out, someone wanted them more than I , they need rechrome so I wasnt going higher & I didnt think there was the interest in them to go that high.

I gave a rusty set of those to a Glastron buddy a few years back, (for the cost of shipping) I've sent him an email to see if he still has them. I know they wouldn't fit his trailer, he offered to return them and I told him to hang on to them! (Duh, kicking myself in the butt now, right!?) Let you know what I find out, MP.

Sweet lookin' trailer MP!

When measuring for baby moons do not go by wheel size. Measure the diameter of the clips or bump in the rim. Match that with the inter rim diameter of the moon, backside. Here you can see the rim on the backside to measure.

I think mine are 9 1/8" inside, almost a full moon on these little wheels.

The exception is if you are using reverse rims then measure the outer rim diameter on the back.

CAT*FIN*k thanks for the pics ....

I am measuring from the clip dia 7" and what I needed to feel warm and fuzzy was a pic of the profile to see the depth looks like approx 1/2 and I have located some reasonable priced ones that I believe will work if I cant find some old stock ones to rechrome

thanks for all the suggestions guys

It's just the way this Snowco was designed. It rides very smooth, the spring has a lot of aft travel for the big bumps. Hit some RR tracks a little to fast bringing it here, loaded heavy, no tire scrapes.

MP good luck finding the logo moons, their out there. I picked up the plain ones on ebay NOS $5 ea, 1 1/2 years ago, nobody else bid, better than exposed nuts. Don't know if Snowco made logo's moons, never seen them. I'll keep an eye out.
