Hi Mark,

Apart from introducing side loads into the RJ's on the upright, I can't see any downsides to this. You may have to replace the RJ's more frequently due to increased loads and wear. The RJ's here are probably 1/2 " so should be able to take the extra loads OK IMHO.

The other option would be to space the wheels out. Just a matter of what's easiest.

Cheers,
