Dual wheel project

SVcummins · Apr 3, 2018

Got the centers cut out and the rings put on today now I just need to get eyes for the j bolts to go through and get tires mounted this was a lot cheaper option than buying a set of factory dual hubs and I couldn't find a set to fit the 3020 anyway everybody had a set for a 4020 but not the smaller ones I thought about robbing the hubs off my 4020 but then I'd have to buy a set of wedges the best price I could was 300$ as far as cutting a (good) 9 bolt rim apart these are rotten from calcium to just not quite bad enough you can stick your finger through like the ones I took the rings off of

Those rings don't need to be welded in. Ours never were, and we had several sets of different sizes. But glad your getting them done.

I figured may as well give em a few passes just to help make sure the stay . I?ve got a set of 16 inch wide power adjust rims off a big Massey that I?m going to cut the rails out off and weld these John Deere centers I cut out today into those wheels

I like the spacer rings welded into place- reduces those "surprises" when mounting the duals...especially when doing it by yourself.

Picked up the tires today now just weld the eyes on for the j bolts get the tires mounted and I can spread fertilzer on my new pasture grass

I got lucky I text the boss the night before and asked if anybody was going to burley and she said yeah you are to pick up some lease trucks so I asked if I could go over to burley tractor and get some tires it saved me a 300 mile round trip to get the tires and I got paid to go get em.

I?m just glad the Y.T.D.O.T wasn?t out or they?d
have hung me sure

Been working some still plenty wet. I?m going to
scatter some fertilizer on a couple of my local
pieces my other place is still under a couple feet of
snow

SVcummins · Apr 5, 2018

Got em on and got the rims marked where to put the eyes

SVcummins · Apr 6, 2018

I believe you these rings were welded in the old rims I cut the welde and ended up torching the whole wheel apart before I finally got the rings loose

Clamp-on duals that I sold new back in the 70's-80's had the spacer bands welded to the dual wheels.

If you don't hurry you're going to have the wheels "worn out" before you ever mount any tires on them!!!! LOL :twisted:

I know huh . i kinda wish I could have found some 9 bolt hubs but I couldn't

Now the moment we've all been waiting for or at least the moment I've been waiting for
