I was doin some surfing and was wondering if the wild willy tires & wheels are a direct swap onto/with the lunchbox? i saw some pics of fronts somewhere (cant find @ moment though) and they took bearings. i would guess the rears need hexes?

Here's a link to the WW2 manual:
http://rcdocuments.com/file_info/download.php?file=Tamiya_Wild_willy_2_Manual_(WR-02).pdf
(Copy and paste for some reason.)
If you can get the page with the front axles to print (unscaled), you could maybe compare axle length to the LB so see if they would work. It looks close.
The rears are definitely hex on the WW2 and would not work.
Are you just looking for chrome wheels for the LB?
