Timberline legs

[YYCRed]

Possibly a strange question, but is there any reason that we couldn't reverse the legs on a Timberline? Where my grill will sit, it would be infinitely easier to empty the hopper if I could just swing out the right side. Visuals attached in case I didn't explain it very well.

Is the weight of the hopper too much for the locking wheels? Are the legs different diameters? What am I missing?

I doubt that it would matter, give it a shot!

That's what I am thinking, but I don't have my grill yet so I don't know if it'll work. Makes sense to me, but I don't have any hands-on experience with these grills yet so I'm just making sure I'm not thinking about doing something that just won't work. Cheers!

They put the swivel casters on the handle side for easier maneuverability. So I wouldn't think switching the legs and wheels would make a difference.

Or both ends, makes it very manoeuvrable.

Interesting. I feel pretty good now that I can just swap the legs as I hoped. I don't think I need it quite THAT manoueverable. Cheers!

Update: it works! And I can't believe that people say it takes 1 (some said 2!) hours for 2 people to assemble. I did it myself in about 30 minutes - minus cleanup.

I think it took me longer to breakdown all the cardboard then it did to put the grill itself togther!

I agree, a snap to assemble, but I couldn't lift it back up by myself!

The hard part was getting a good grip. It's a little slick.

I managed to get it up on the legs by myself barely. Once it was up I realized I did not put the braces on between the legs and had to crouch in weird ways to get those screwed on.
