Hi Mike - why do you want to swap them out?  The cranes that are in the kit are to scale and look really good if they are put together correctly.


The only thing that I changed were the mountings and I simply swapped them out for 22mm straight pipe connectors.  That way they still turned but were far more stable.


I hope this helps

Nice work.!!!  I followed another build and noticed the guy swapped out the cranes from Cornwall models.Not quite to scale but look very detailed.
