Does any one know the center distance between axles and the wheel diameter for this product?

Thanks

I believe this is a replacement for the old Aristocraft FA truck - Bachmann has been selling it for that purpose, besides the Eggliner truck.
I don't have mine handy but I'm sure someone does. See

Ive got the aristo and the bachmann ones... if no one else measures theirs, I'll measure one.

Greg,

based on prototype dims it looks like the wheel base should be about 3-7/8 between centers and about 1-3/8 wheel Dia.  I wanted to check to see if this would work in another scale, but do not know how close they followed there 1/29th scale.
