For sure overkill but I wanted more height anyway and the locks on the old casters were pretty fubar'ed. Also being only 3", they were not fun to get back up onto my rubber garage floor when I'd move the cab to the other side for cleaning. Now if only the last dude didn't weld the damn things on. Turns out that a Sawzall with a good blade cuts them off pretty decently. Now the worst part is that I've already sacrificed 2 drill bits to the metal gods and I was already low on the things to begin with so I guess this will have to wait until I can get more bits.
Great choice of going to the Bigger casters.

Since I have been following for a while

I feel like I can suggest,
That it is time for you to learn to sharpen a Twist Drill

Even if you don't do it exactly right it will still drill the hole.

Start with 1st video then when you get (good)
Search more video's like the 2nd one
