Mine has hotwires. Ex Moggy Minor, so they havethe correct stud pattern.

BTW you really should not put Gemini wheels on your Moke. Moke (and Mini) stud pattern is 4" PCD or ~101.6mm and uses 3/8" studs. Gemini (and Honda etc, lots of Jap cars) uses 100mm PCD with 12mm studs. While the Gemini rim will fit on due to the smaller stud diameter on the Mini/Moke, the nuts will not be centred over the stud hole. Hence the nuts can work loose quickly and/or the wheel crack around the stud holes. Believe me, I've seen it happen!!!

And if that's not enough, the wheel studs can fatigue and break. :cry:

brad i just saw the moke shorty
i like very much
what are the problems in owning/converting/registering one of those?
coz ive taken an angle grinder to my moke,
and once i get my hands on a chainsaw...

i wouldnt have a clue mate, just found the pic on the net, id say it would be a case of cut and shut in the middle. Wouldnt be to hard, not sure how long it would last though. It would have to get engineered as the wheel track has been changed.

That shorty Moke cannot be a real Moke - look at the size of the engine cover. No way an A series would fit in there!

I reckon someone has made a replica Moke body on a golf cart or kidee car chassis and adapted Mini wheels to fit.
