I think so. I've checked the fronts for the necessary space, and there appears to be plenty of room in the tub for the rears. On this wider tub, there are no wheel motor boxes - the body slides into a hole in the tub, and the flange bolts onto the outside of the tub. Looks straightforward.

But, I have have to get the two rear ones rebuilt (inspected and seals replaced) due to heat. One rear tire burned completely, and the other partially. So though the hoses didn't burn off the wheelmotor, nor did they catch on fire, there was a lot of heat, very close....

Yeah, that was quite the sight seeing it on fire. Yikes!

So no wheel boxes. That's a plus.
