My King Tiger is around 20 or so years old. When I first got it about 6 months ago, I disassembled the roadwheels and found that it appeared the brass bushings were actually rotating in the roadwheel against the plastic.

Of course, the parts that were supposed to be moving weren't, but it probably wouldn't be a bad idea to either grease the road wheel where the bushings fit as well as the moving parts, or find a way to make them tighter in the wheel. I ended up greasing both the bushing and the place where they fit into the roadwheel just to be sure.

@Schutzstaffel,

Squeaking sounds real cool and all, but it usually means you have friction, which could lead to wear. Even at the slow speeds, the weight is probabaly enough to do some damage to something over time. The reason I took the roadwheels apart on the King Tiger in the first place was to find out what was squeaking. I'm glad I did.
