    Ouverson Lockout Hubs Problem

    Give Randy a call, he'll help you out. I've got them on a deuce and had them on my mud truck, 725 HP with 57" tractor tires with no issues. Your problem is probably something minor.

    International Title Service --- A+ SERVICE!

    So if I want to sell a deuce that has never been titled yet would I be able to get the paperwork done in the individuals name who is buying the truck thus keeping my name out of it?

    Dead battery meets rubber hammer

    I've also heard to put the charger on "jump" mode a few short times and that is supposed to do the same thing as the hammer trick but I've never had any luck with that, maybe the betteries were too far gone. I'm gonna try the hammer method next time.

    Ordered wheels today

    Sorry, I should ahve clarified that, bring them to a semi tire shop, they should be able to handle it. I have a Pomps tire by my house and they have a machine that does a lot of tires for Caterpillar, they were able to mount mine without messing up the bead on the tires.

    Lug nut question??

    Thanks for that picture, that explains where that angle came from. So is everyone with aftermarket rims that are straight cut tapered just using the stock lug nuts? Anyone have any problems with them not staying tight?

    Ordered wheels today

    Bring them to a tire shop :smile:. I have mounted 44 inch off-road tires before by myself with no special tool, I tried mounting my 14.5 R20's by myself and after about an hour of sweating, swearing and throwing things I gave up and brought them to a shop right by my house. Those sidewalls are...

    Lug nut question??

    See I've heard 82 degrees too and I guess I can't figure out where that measurement (angle) would be. 50 degrees sounds right. I've got plenty of stock deuce lug nuts but I was just wondering if they will work right with aftermarket rims if the taper on the rim is flat and the lug nut has a...

    Glad this thread resurfaced, I have a couple trucks that have tachs that are not working and I was wondering if there is a common place to start. I think I'll start with the motor end of the cable :smile:
