Specifically: AMT EC-135 "Looking Glass" Command Post kit Steel Beach 72011 E-3B AWACS late nose wheels. I'm looking to buy, and am in the US. Thanks, Fred K. The only thing that I still need are the Steel Beach E-3B wheel set. Thanks, Fred K. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Drifterdon Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Fred, are you talking about the KC-135 late front wheels? https://store.spruebrothers.com/product_p/sba72011.htm Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dutch Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Yeah, I've been looking for two sets of those for my two KC-135R builds. Not sure if they were ever mounted to the KC-135A/Es. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure if they were ever mounted to the KC-135A/Es. A quick search on the interweb shows that these wheels were used on both A's and E's. You'd have to check the time period though. Maybe one of the old 135 crew dogs would have more insight into when the wheels replaced the earlier ribbed/finned wheels. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dutch Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Don, will the front wheels in the True Details sets #45007 & #72002 work? I have a set of one of these for my Nova Vac kit, but they are buried in the stash. Too hard to dig out at the moment. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
