Hi Beko1987, Thanks for that. Mine are longer and narrower, so I reckon I definitely have the wrong ones. I'll order new ones today. Many thanks.

Hi, does anybody have the correct measurements for the drive belts, so I can see if mine are the right sizes?

Hi there, Thanks very much for that. Do you happen to have the size dimensions for the correct belts? I don't want to discard perfectly good belts if I already have the correct ones. Thanks

Incorrect drive belt I think Hi, Having read the above, I looked at my drive belts again. I think I may have the wrong type. Mine belts are genuine hoover 38528507. However, when I checked the models this fits, U1100 isn't included in the fit list. Hoover Part No 09020165 seems to be the...

Thanks for those additional replies. I have now have a few more options. The other wheel isn't quite so bad, and following the advice above, I reckon I could fix it. Thanks for the offer beko1987, I'll email you. That service kit looks good. No the belt isn't original, I changed the belt...

As long as it has wheels, I don't mind what type especially. I'm watching the link you gave. But they are collect only, and I'm over a hundred miles away. Not sure how much the collection would be by courier either. I'll see how it goes. Thanks for the all information so far, and if anybody...

Hi there. No not really sentimental, just a very good hoover that still works. I look after stuff and always make stuff last a very long time. I'm still using a 1983/4 Creda 1000 washing machine. I just replaced the drum bearings for the 1st time. I'm amazed it still goes, but as long as it...

Yup insualting tape. I have a wooden floor the the plastic on the wheels was hard enough to scratch it. So I put some soft tape around the wheels, and that stopped the scratching. I see what you mean about the circular recess at the pin, it's the same on both wheels. I can easily put a washer in...

Here's one of the wheel spindle in the chassis.

Thanks for those replies, and that link to the spares on Ebay. Here's a pic of the agitator and one wheel. The other wheel is pretty much the same. I looked at the chassis, and that looks ok. The steel pin/shaft is good too. It's just that the hole in the wheels is elongated now, and won't...

Here's a pic or two.

Hi Chris, Thanks for that. I've looked, but can't seem to find any. Maybe I'll have to make some in some way. Do you also know anything about the agitator brushes? Again mine are original. I'm wondering if I should get a new agitator. Does anyone know how long the brushes are when new? Mine...

Hi there. We've had a Hoover Turbopower Junior U1100 since it was bought way back in the 1980's. It's still going strong. But the rear wheels are collapsing. I need to know if the wheels on this are compatible with any other models, as I can't find any for the U1100. Would wheels for the...
