I've always been a bit confused how putting in something with weight, a fluid, heavier than air, could make a counterbalance to an already heavy side. Can you explain how that works? Unless the problem is an out of round tire and the large side is the least weight, what makes the fluid or...
Or use a hub with reasonable bearings, clean dry and not tight, where the heavy side will go to the bottom. Have adhesive weights ready and stop when you put it at 90* and it doesn't go either up or down.
I have a precision balancing tool I made for holding shafts that have large material...
That is a normal lug nut (right and left thread), a "Williams washer" and a 7/16" long piece from a DOM tube, 1" outside and 3/4" inside, all on a bolt that is the same thread as the stud.
Or are you referring to the nut for aluminum rims which is like this:
Alcoa #599501 left, #599502 right
My MRAP's are 10" wide and so are the rims on the Sand Trail tires. Together, they make one 12" and leave a (fire pit) 8". Unfortunately they are still sitting at the machine shop I use for the machining at the o-ring...so not done and tried yet. I wanted to use them on an M51A2 dump truck...
I'm making a combined wheel from one part, the front ring, that came on the Sand Trail 450 tires and some (I think) Henderson MRAP rims that have the 11.25 bolt circle, steel. There is a slight bit of machining to do for the o-ring, otherwise fit perfect.
Is the track as wide as the duels? If the hub were in and the dish out, would it be as wide, same or wider? My guess is a bit wider. About like my M35A3.
Yes, most are bigger. They are 13.19" bolt circle and 11" hub pilot. But there are some out there with 11.25 BC like the OP has.
Note the inside of the dish is the side that already has the conical chamfer. I was wondering how he got the mag drill into the dish, but he was working on the...
Wow, that's huge. Those ST tires come on 10" and the tire is 16" wide (I think 18" overall). I'm not sure how they would work with such a large rim. Just for info, here is the nut that fits the aluminum rims and also my nut for the MRAP with 11.25 bolt circle.
