I am in the process of replacing the wheels and tires on my 58 2ton. In taking off the duals there was nothing between the duals. I am putting on new powder coated wheels. Should they just be put back on like the old wheels with no material between them? For some reason and I don't know why it seems odd just to bolt the wheels on directly against each other. Is that the way they all are?
thanks,

Just a thought. I don't think that would cause any problem. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 6,214 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 6,214 | Paper will get wet and stay wet causing rust. I vote for putting nothing between them, it worked for the first 50 years... Mike B  | | |
