For the road wheels I used 5x8x3 no flange on the inner section of the inner wheel, IOW next to the suspension arm. Between the two halves of the wheel I used a single 5x9x4 no flange. Both fit well.
For the idler, you can use between the halves 5x9x4 no flange. For the inside next to the idler arm, the recess is 7.71 mm wide. Carefully bore that out to to fit a 5x8x3 no flange bearing.
However, my T55 is one of the first so if yours is a 'new' run it might be different in some measurements.

Hi Bob, Have you gotten a version of your gear boxes for the T55 yet. I have yet to complete mine for lack of a good option for gear boxes.

Working on it. Parts for the P4/Jagdpanzer went to machine shop Monday. Next I'll chew on the T 55 and see what can be done. I know the unit will fit, it's the mounts that will be fun. Also want to finally come up with something for the Leo 1.
