deuceman, I should mention, don't forget to put the cork seal on the rear axles, if you don't they will leak..You can make your own.

deuceman, I replaced all mine, now I know what I have, to me its worth it. I don't know when the previous owner did anything to mine. Antelope Valley has both inner and outer seals

deuceman 51, I agree with lacoda ,get a set of manuals from portrayal press, 973-579-5781. Get the whole set on the M-135, you will use all of them, I have , very helpful,,it answers the questions you are asking, as a min I would get the two I'm gong to mention, TM 9-8024, $69.00 and TM...

Gerhard, just think of the bearing being a single load bearing span and the contact point ( where the load is bearing on the span) is equally distributed across the entire span. Now instead of the load being concentrated equally on a 3" span ( approx bearing width) it is now shifted to the...

gringeltaube, I measured the dim you asked me to, the tire is on the wheel so it is a little difficult to handle...but the dim I got is 9 -7/16" thids is compared to the 10 1/2 dim on your last sketch,,,now the dim I gave you could be a little off, just put a flat bar on the rim and measured...

when I had my tires mounted, I blasted rim and lock ring so They were not matched , but the guy that I had them mounted put the split opposite of the air filler valve

Basic info on wheel offset - Gerhard your diagrams are quite interesting, but what you have defined as "offset" is not "offset and offset is not the rear spacing. Offset is defined as " the offset of a wheel is the distance of the hub moumting surface to the centerline of the tire mounting. "...

FSBruva, you are correct.. The dimensions that I put in here I got from the manual..and offset is from the cl to the outside of the rim..this is a critical dim if you cange wheels with a greater offset..because it will put a greater load on one side of the bearing (lateral load) which would...
