    Used to be able to find those clip nuts in a body shop supply...... I’m assuming pedals and pedi still s are still available dealer if not lotsa wrecking yards full of them good luck and if I were you I would pull out injectors and shoot lotsa mystery oil in cylinders also pull off oil line from turbo and oil bearings and make sure it spins free.... good luck... bob

    Well that’s the plan anyway I don’t think I’ll have much of a problem container chassis still use them 20 spokes And there is lots of them around and I am sure these days it’s a lot easier to find solid rims especially out here.Oooooooooooo by the was I’m not expecting to get them cheap... bob
  22. mowerman
    In fact my DM has 2 piece and it needs all 10 tires... I’m hoping to replace them with solid tubeless rims ... bob
  23. mowerman
    Oooooooooooo no offense taken.. my man ..... was just trying to figure out why you thought 3 was safer.... I’ve done a lot of them both.... you have to be very careful putting them both together,, from what I remember seems the 3 piece were mainly used on 1100 - 1200 24s 1000-20 were all 2 piece.... bob
  24. mowerman
    Not sure what you meant by confusing....: I’ve worked with hundreds of 2/3 piece rims .... thier pretty much both widow makers .... bob
  25. mowerman
    Yes it’s hard work.... solid wheels are a little easier...... I wound up getting canned over arguing with a customer with a car..typical smartass teenage kid... truck tire shop... but they did a few passenger tires ...... bob
