All they sell are wheels. Gay.

Had to go to home depot today to get a new wheel barrow as I broke my old one.

It might sound feminine, but the wheel barrows with two front wheels are MUCH easier to use than traditional single wheel.

Like this:

The two wheeled ones suck man, you can't steer them for shit and they are easy to overload.

Go get a metal Jackson for $100 from lowes, the will last a homeowner a lifetime. I can get about 3 years out of them and we beat the living shit out of them.

It takes up to much room on the floor space at Harbor Freight probable.

I still have my Jackson 'barrow and after swapping out to a solid tire after ten years of use on the OG tire, it'll go another ten.

*edit*
Turn the old shell into a go kart OP!

Hate to break it to ya, but Hardware stores sell rebuild kits for pretty cheap.

Everything but the tub, for around 30 bucks. Axle clamps are like 2 bucks.
2 wheel conversions are cheap and easy as well...if you're into that sort of thing.

Congrats on the new 'Barrow though!

2 wheels not be fem. just easier but harder to turn in some situations

This is much better than a wheelbarrow for many things. Haven't used it to mix or move concrete though.
