Dimensions. I did a lot of measuring of the spacing of the wheels on a type 5 motor. They didn't actually help me fix my problem, but research like this should be published and be available to others. I measured the dimensions of four wheel sets on type 5 motors. Results were so consistent that they didn't give me a clue about my binding problem. Here they are, shown in 128ths of an inch. Add one inch for the low number measurements
- Outside of tires 87, 90, 91, 97. The 97 is for a wheel slightly afflicted by zinc pest.
- Interface of tire and flange 26, 24, 26, 34
- Inside faces of wheels 3, 3, 4, 7
The wheel set that I put together seems to differ by 3/64 to 4/64 to 1.5/64 - average 1/16
- gear to face of opposite wheel 121 for three and 124 for repair set.
Don't know if all of this is useful but might be to someone who needs to check these dimensions
