Would like to identify what type aircraft used these Bendix 34X9 main wheels.

I cannot find part number 57613 in any of the references I have but many WW2 Bendix wheels had 57nnn numbers. P/N 57679 was a US Army wheel in use in late 1943 on the AT-11.

It more likely will be off a civilian aircraft of that period, especially seeing military wheels seldom if ever carried company promotional emblems.

I finally got these identified as being for Brewster SB2A. The P-47 used the same size wheel but with a larger diameter brake.
