MWR 321 #12 Posted April 22, 2016 Probably done back in the 80's. Yep, that's right - someone put a set of leggins on their Wheelhorse. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
farmer 1,075 #13 Posted April 22, 2016 (edited) It's just a way of distracting a buyers attention away from what the heck he was thinking about when he tried to latch down the hood. Edited April 22, 2016 by farmer 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JimD 3,345 #14 Posted April 23, 2016 Man, that whole thing is a disaster. If you look close it looks like the other side has one too, and it was put in as an assembly. Almost looks like they are trying to adapt car axles to this horse. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
