BIG SHOUT out to the Rooster
« on: October 23, 2016, 07:59:59 AM »
Just wanted to thank Rooster for his idea, and in the end a fix. Did the wheel repair about a week ago and knew it was holding pressure, but didn't want to post until we had time to get the scoot out super slab and get it to triple digits. 105mph on I-40............smooth as silk. The Rooster just saved me $600+, so now I'm smiling ear to ear! Close look and you can see some marks, but it rides true! Link below for before pigs. A brass dowel, thick piece of leather, BFH & tap,tap,tap.  :huepfenjump3: :huepfenjump3: :huepfenjump3:

THANKS AGAIN ROOSTER and I owe you a  :drink:

Pig was taken before tire was aired up & most of what you see is a reflection from spokes....really looks pretty clean.

Wow Jimmy - I figured that wheel was a goner from the images you posted. Well done!  :2vrolijk_21:
