Howdy

I'd like to ask you how to attach and which wheels use to convert Taurox into wheeled vehicle?
Before you start saying something like "anvil industries" there is a catch: I need wheels and all parts used for conversion be "made by Games Workshop"
I was thinking about looking for goliath and trukk wheels but because it is kinda steep investment for me I need to look for other peoples opinion.

If GW still had the troll mail order service this would be easy, have gander on ebay

There’s a good looking set of wheels on the new Ork pickup trukk and the wheels from the Goliath wheels look great but I don’t understand how you’re going to sidestep the cost if you *must* have GW wheels.

Why do you need GW wheels? IME most staff cannot recognise actual GW parts, let alone 3rd party ones.

Try Ork vehicles, I'm thinking the Trukk or Battlewagon has the right size but maybe some of the new releases also

He might be doing a strict sanctioned tournament, even then you could still get away with even 3D printed wheels (that’s what’s going on my Tauroxes (Tauroxi?) when I get around to them) that look like Goliath wheels then just paint on a ton of textured paint to break up the look.

I also absolutely hate the Taurox tracks and I’m converting mine with wheels and plastic rod for axles drilled through the subframe mounts. If Stormstroopers could take Chimeras I’d be far happier.

The Goliath wheels are probably the best option. the ork ones are pretty orky. if price is concerned (well its a conversion its too be expected) you could try ebay.

as for attaching it you could probably use the existing axle body and make a peg using sprue. just pin it all together.

Do they care about mini manufacturers only? You might be able to get away with wheels from a cheap kid's toy.

Otherwise, always bits sites. They've got battle wagon sets.

Try eBay and pick up the worst looking pile.of orky junk.conversion with the right number of wheels.
