Hi Matt.

It's type B.

Check if it fits your truck and for £5 plus P+P it's yours mate.

Cheers,

Jez

Hi Matt, I'm not sure on the accuracy of the text in that link. As far as I know it's all down to splines. The two types of wheel listed as interchangable are definately not. Clearance of binacle not withstanding, they are definately different spline numbers (early 4 spoke 36 splines, later TD5 type 48 splines (usually))!!

I'll look into it for you matey.

I've got a pair of Mountney 14-inch wheels for sale (only one 36-spline boss though), one in leather with polished alloy spokes and one in PVC with black alloy spokes.
Replaced with a Raid 12-inch c/w Snap-Off kit which is fantastic (thanks for telling me about that Jez).

Matt_H:
I've got a boss with my mountney already (happily swap the mountney for a land rover padded wheel), the wheel is 12 inch and far too small for me (works well with the bucket seats I already removed!).. I think minimum 16 inches for me to be comfortable (get pains in hand and wrist otherwise)

Mine is defo an early column so any pointers Jez are very much appreciated :-)

Matt
