All fixed. Had to a little work as the were one inch in diameter larger and used different axles (.015" larger diameter) but hey... Us old Jeep owners are used to that! After a brake adjustment due to the wheel diameter difference I'm completely mobile again. And the wheels have tread. Looks like I can go off-road now!

Like Jim Rockford, who needs brakes if you have a good reverse ? You just throw it in reverse and spin around. Glad you are back on the road.

Went to move the wheels to a different hole to compensate for the different diameter and fit the correct axles. The axles are .4685 in dia. and the correct drill is a 12mm (.4724) for a tight slip fit.
Started to step incrementally to the 12mm drill and wala!
On the first hole the bit caught and twisted my hand... Needless to say... A DeWalt drill with freshly charged 20v XR battery = lots of torque. About twisted my hand right off. With my rehumatoid arthritis it was an easy spraine, so for a while I'm out of commission. (the refit can wait)
