Any 1 in x 36 spline will work Vip has the wheels FWIW you don't have to change the hub the wheel has 3 bolts to remove it from the hub
A Freight Liner wheel will work I don't know about others

good luck

Thanks I would not change but I'm a little oversized to fit comfortably. We use it for our group right now my uncle drives but I need to be able to relieve some.

So what happens if the Power Steering quits from a major blow out of the lines? With the 22"? wheel you can get it into any place you need to, with an 18" wheel you'll fight that sucker even at 30 mph to make it go where you want it to.
How about looking at resetting the seat location if you have a problem with the belly spacing?
Setting the mounts 1 1/2" back can make a big change on the Done-Lap.
Plus, it won't cost a thing except some exercise and some time.

I'm going to try removing the wall from behind the seat and move it some but sets on lower level on eagle. Trying dieting just to slow a response time.

Jason, for goodness sakes, don't start dieting! What would you live on when the world comes to an end? Besides, us fat people have to stick together!

I'm not sure what your seat mount looks like, but at one time I cut off the rear of the mounting flange on a Bostrom seat and that allowed it to move back enough for my driver to be comfortable.
