Hi All
Im building the Italeri M978 using RM 35250 wheel set and Im not sure which wheels go where.
Is the pair with the added ring on the inner wheel to go front or rear?
Thanks Guys

The three wheels standing up are, from left to right:
front wheel, spare wheel, rear wheel.
The hub on the rear wheel is recessed deeper than the front wheel. The front wheel contains steering/pivot + drive/power joint while the rear wheel only gets bolted to the end of an axle.

When you create a post or a reply to a post there are 7 buttons below the text input field (above the smileys).
The one at the far right has the label img inside square brackets. If you press it you get this:
Copy and paste something starting with http and ending with .jpg or .gif and maybe some other image formats inside the brackets to replace this part:
http://put.url.here/image.file
The images need to be available out there somewhere on the internet. There is a smallish image gallery connected to your account here at Kitmaker but it soon runs out so I only use it for the most essential images, the rest goes to imgur. The basic imgur service is "free" up to some limit and they haven't tried to take my images "hostage" like Photobucket tried to do. I assume that they feel free to sell my images or something, I wish them good luck with that I doubt anyone would pay even a penny for them, hah!
The image of that M978 comes from this excellent and most valuable site:
