I just did one earlier this year $25 plus shipping which you will pay either way if new or repaired.
If I remember right it was only like 35 bucks total.

So far this auto-x season, I have about 16 or 18 full wheel changes (all four) on my hammer and it's performing fantastic. Olthoffs video is definitely a good guide and I have yet to loose a wheel...lol... Couple smart blows to loosen, and wrist-flick technique for tightening....works great. Don't forget the anti-sieze.

After 11 years of use my 6 pounder was ready for some R&R. I sent it back to Ted at American Hammer (about $10 postage). Within a week I had a brand new one back at the house ($25 included the postage).
Thanks Ted

So, when you're not around poges that'll do it for you, you actually twist a wrench every now and then? Or is that only if it's "critical?"

There's no mistaking what country they're from. It says AMERICAN HAMMER on one side of the handle and a number to call for recasting on the other. It just worked for me where nothing else would. I got the right tool and info off CC, thanks guys.

Mine sure did the trick on my Kirkham. When I was done I just hammered the
head back to its original shape with a ball peen hammer. Not that it was that
out of shape from 3 wheels but I thought I'd try to bring it back before it got
too far out and it seems to work. Don't want to mail it back unless I have to!

You are all very welcome. I'm glad to have helped and i've met a lot of nice Cobra guys, over the phone, because of it. Enjoy.
