1967 servi car front wheel
67 servi front wheel is in poor condition, looking to replace it, are all 16 inch wheels 67 to 72 interchangeable front and rear?

Re: 1967 servi car front wheel
Yes, it is the same as a Big Twin F or R wheel with sealed bearings (mid star). To be truly correct it needs to be pre'69 so it does not require the locking sleeve used after the advent of the right side brake. If the hub is good any 16" H-D rim from the early sixties ('62) with the safety bead rim will lace right to it.

Re: 1967 servi car front wheel
Thanks Rubone, rim is rusted through, spokes are no good too, I have a local shop that deals in vintage parts, thinking it would be easier to get a good used wheel check or replace bearings than lace up a wheel, I have 2 servi cars to restore a 56 and the 67, so timewise my efforts are into getting them road worthy...I have laced and trued wheels since the 70's so that's no problem just need to focus time on all that needs done...
