12" wheel weights

Recommended Posts

Just picked up 5--30# vibration dampeners for a CAT diesel.

 

Think they will make good wheel weights?

:woohoo:   If the center hole will go over your hubs just drill a few holes, get some bolts, you have it! I bet they cost a lot less than the cast iron ones.  :text-bravo:

I took a 1/2" x 2" piece of steel, and welded a 1" section of barbell bar, to it. Then drilled a hole in each end and bolted it to the wheel.

Behind the 50# weight are 35#'s. 

You might bake a center sleeve to use this method. 

Removing weights is fast.
