The caster wheels are working great. Utilizing two wheels spreads out the load. When I go through a dip in the road I go slow so that the sides do not tilt. I recently found 4 inch caster wheels that are 2.5 inches wide and have roller bearings with a grease fitting on the axle mount. I used 1/4 inch plates on each side, which gives it plenty of stregth to support the weight. I am very pleased with performance of this set up. My neighbors are happy that the rig does not cut up the road and the set up actually looks as good as it performs. I was happy to engineer a solution without welding anything to the rig. A simplistic solution that works. Will post pics once I change out the wheels. For now We are just enjoying the RV as we see different parts of the country.
