Measuring your existing wheelchair caster:
Purchasing the proper wheelchair caster is as simple as measuring the old one. Even if the size is written on the existing caster, you still want to make sure the hub width and bearing size will be correct. Properly measuring will ensure you order the correct caster and prevent an installation headache and the hassle of sending them back.

Wheels are fine with the following exception.
Wheel A: removed the old wheel no problem, put on the new wheel no problem.
Wheel B: removed the old wheel no problem, it took 30 minutes to put on the new wheel the new hub must be a fraction of an inch wider and had to be forced in between the forks. We had to line up the axle on one side and then using force and a hammer managed to get the axle to line up on the other side. The wheels work but the fork on Wheel B is spread apart more due to the wider Hub.

Received item in good order via USPS, thanks. It saved me a trip to the express delivery holding site because they do not deliver when no one is home. At least the postman knows where to put these packages. Casters exactly as advertised. Unbeknown to me, the rear set of casters was a larger axle size. But no problem, just switched out the bearings on the old set with the new ones and it fit like a charm. Bearings were press fit into the hub so no special tools needed. The front set of casters were for 5/16 inch bearings and axle. The type of transporter wheel chair I have is an Everest and Jennings...old model. Who would have thought they would make 2 bearings sizes for the same casters on the same wheel chair?
