Hello "Joe" !! On this one is not possible to just turn them around, unless I redrill the drive Axle, on the inside.

The Rim has a bushing fitting over the driveshaft drilled on the outside and they are both pinned toghether, if reverse them or exchange them right to left and viceverse I will have no hole on the axle to pin them down unless I drill a new hole.

Hello "Fuhh" !! We are going to decide what is more practical to do. Your suggestion or drill a valve hole on the outside and put a tube and they will be permanently fixed, if this is to expensive we have to try Your idea, but we have to take the tires off the rim before welding, they are tubeless tires.

Thank You very Much for Your Input. x@y.
