Cheiftain Tank Idlers
 
I'm looking for two good tank idlers off a Cheiftain Tank. I need them with the centres still in (rather than bored out).

I am aware of one source but Hampshire is a long way from me in Shropshire, and Diesel is expensive.

Does anyone nearer have two useable ones knocking about that may be availible somewhere nearer to me?.

Or perhaps another dealer who has a stock?

Ones exacly like this

Yes we have

No you don't Chris,

They are 8 stud and narrower in the rubber. Ex Comet/Centurion/Cromwell tank (and Bomford Living Van).

I was talking to the man who sold you them yesterday afternoon.

The Chieftain ones are 10 stud, and easier to come by.

Yes but seen as our wheels fit it I thought it might be worth you considering

No ta, 8 stud ones are like rocking horse manure to replace if needed.
