Popular Post leversole Posted July 13, 2013 Author Popular Post Share Posted July 13, 2013 Success! A little pressure from the back, a little hammer action, it moved ever so slightly, rotate 180 degrees, pressure, bang bang, it moved some more...about 4 more go arounds and viola! It's off...Same thing on the right rear! Tried to true it, inside wont budge, grabbed the porta power, it came off on the first try...Going to clean everything up, get new nuts and studs, and line them up...the tire place pulled the threads right out of two of the nuts with those big ass impacts!My neighbors must LOVE me! 4 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/31864-haten-on-the-dayton/page/2/#findComment-193829 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lmackattack Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Im sure if they put those rims on with a big impact that's why they were stuck. They forced them too far back with the gun... 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/31864-haten-on-the-dayton/page/2/#findComment-193844 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TozziWelding Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 I will say what has already been said again, all you need it the 1/2" gun for putting the dogs on.

other dog Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Check to see if the stops on the rim aren't wedged in the spoke. Striking the rim and the spoke isn't good.FWdamn good thinking, I never thought of that but it could be the problem. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

other dog Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Tell Your neighbors you love them, and there's always something interesting going on to entertain them thanks to you. If they don't buy it you can always tell them to go #**k themselves. That's what I would do.Me too. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Popular Post Lmackattack Posted July 13, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted July 13, 2013 Another word of caution is when you are removing the dogs on the outer rim off the spokes..... leave all the nuts backed off on the studs Untill all nuts and dogs are louse. Seen them dogs go flying if they were under stress.... A shot to the dick,leg knee or ankle Wont feel too good. Ask me how I know.. 1 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/31864-haten-on-the-dayton/page/2/#findComment-193893 Share on other sites More sharing options...

leversole Posted July 14, 2013 Author Share Posted July 14, 2013 Im sure if they put those rims on with a big impact that's why they were stuck. They forced them too far back with the gun...They were rusted solid! On the pass side only...I have seen a picture of that truck in a machine shed...maybe that side was close to the weather?!?

bulldog man Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 Oh yeah! Absolutely! Thoes suckers will fly! Yes Sir & they don't have a pilot's license. That's 1 thing I forgot to mention as well . even as a 15 yr old kid I knew to keep the nuts on & then knock w/ a sledge hammer before taking the lug nuts off . Quote You Cant Fix Stupid.

[/quoteLast time I had to have a road service for a flat the guy loosen the lugs and grabbed the big sledge,I told him don't even think about hitting my rim with that sledge,he looked at me like I was nuts.lol,then when he put the rim back on I told him make sure you put it back exactly like it came of so the unpainted chock marks don't show..he was still shaking hes head back and forth when he left..

Larry ah2930maysey Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Why does my dump truck have different width rims on the rear axle, the inside is 8.5 and the outside is like 10.00.

Swishy Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Normally U fit narrow rims to the inside when the suspension iz flogged out just so the rim wont hit the chassis on a turn when driving we never paint the spoke where the rim fits ( U need all the clearance U can get ) we wire brush the contact area Btween rim n spoke n studs then put a miniscule of oil on the thread (not enuff to spread all round the rim wen drive n ) wen put n spacer back on rotate spacer till U find the sweet spot cya Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/31864-haten-on-the-dayton/page/2/#findComment-463280 Share on other sites More sharing options...
fjh Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Ive seen more than one of them hubs with one or more rear flares broke check em for cracks before you reassemble ! This happens quite often to 5 spoke hubs! not so much on 6 spoke!
