    hemtt wheels on 5 ton rockwells

    If you are using 800 series axles you have to use budcaps first. The studs only come barely through the rim.

    Need assy. Spec. for 2 piece HEMTT RIMS...

    I just tightened them across and rotated clockwise. 1st round was just to seat the 2 pieces on the o-ring.....2nd round was 500+ ft lbs to get them nice & tight. I have had NO air-leaks in 2 months.

    hemtt wheels on 5 ton rockwells

    You need to put rear budcaps on the wheel studs, then put the hemtt rim on, then put on the rear outer lugs to hold it in place.

    Minor 5 Ton Build

    Looks good Hundy! Yeah Drdstny....he just flipped the rims instead of flipping the hubs. They track almost identical as if you flip the hubs....just a LOT less work involved. Also....with the HEMTT rims, you can NOT line the rears up w/the front. The front tires stick 1-2" past the fenders...

    To all Members.

    This thread is completely worthless. It started as a rant about avatars...WHY...who knows?! When I first read your complaint, it did nothing except remind me of people who whine & cry about what everyone else is doing. It pissed me off.....pretty bad. Who are you to tell people what they...

    Towing?

    He is in VA....as long as he is not getting paid to move it, he is exempt from CDL requirements. That is ONE positive thing that this wonderful state allows us to do. I am glad I dont live in MD! rofl

    1200 Miles starting Friday! M818

    BRING BELTS!!!!! No one keeps them in stock! I broke both of the fan belts on my 818 when I was over 400 miles from home.....it killed the batts (since the fan turns the generator belts). I could not stop for more than 10 minutes without overheating & had to drive straight home. This was...

    What do these tires fit?

    They are either 1400 or 1600 AT2As on 5 ton rims. If I was closer to you, I would buy them. They are worth $200 +/- each. 2cents

    save the battery money

    Another problem I have ran into more than once is..... The bolt that goes through the terminal gets loose & electricity arches inside (melting a tunnel in the lead). From the outside it looks fine, but once you remove the bolt, you see how big the hole is inside. Simply keeping those bolts...

    FREE WMO in VA

    I have 7-8 full 55 gallon drums of WMO that I acquired to run in my deuces. I have since switched to 5 tons & have no use for it anymore. I will offer it to anyone here that wants to come out & pick it up. If there are no takers, I will be putting it in CL for free. You will need to bring a...
