On my WC26 the original wheel centers and drums
have been retained with modern 16 inch
radial 16" outer rims with 12.5" x 35" B.F.G.
Mud Terrains. These tires and 1/2 ton tall gears
allow this truck to cruise easily at 60 m.p.h..
Also a leather diaphram type vacume canister
had been added to greatly improve braking.
With stock brakes and split rims I would not
be doing 60 on the interstate.
