TiLite Zra Caster Spacers

WolfeMan · 11-23-2011, 06:23 PM

I ordered new fork assemblies and casters.......went to change them and found out the spacer's provided are two separate sizes. So......if I installed them the casters would be off center. Called the DME, they didn't know what I was talking about. Am I missing something here???

Hey man. I've been using a TiLite TR for the past 6 years. Love it. I also recently purchased new front casters, bearings, and spacers. The spacers they sent me were the exact same spacers as your picture. I contacted TiLite and they said that these spacers go specifically with the front wheels they sent me. I put the shorter spacer on the side closest to my feet to keep the front wheels as close to the footplate as possible, which minimizes the distance between the front wheels. Also, try calling TiLite customer service directly. They're usually really good about explaining the ins and outs of their wheelchairs.
