MT/Rs & FFRR Alloys, Just Arrived.

I have literally just unwrapped these after being delivered here from down south.
(well, it's down south from here) Laughing



What pressures are these best run at?
I remember seeing a post discussing the pressures, had a search earlier for the thread, to no avail. ATB

With experience & right kit you should get wheel changes down to half an hour.
Though Ken does it quicker than that Whistle I was a normal heterosexual chap, but in these new woke awakenings I now identify as a Wardrobe.

What, half a hour each, easy. Shocked Laughing

I was taking caution on my side, as i've never put a trolley jack near one of these before, it was dark and the last thing i wanted was to go through the compressor cover or similar, the fuel tank. Got there in the end. Very Happy ATB

Best bet for your trolley jack is to get a Shiney Mousse adapter.
[look out for next group buy]
This replaces the castled saddle, it's got a pin and slots into the chassis jacking point.
Stops all the faffing around positioning the jack saddle.
Also a cross brace to spin off the nuts once loosened.
Oh and btw, dump the lock nuts.
30 min the lot ... dead easy.

Thumbs Up I was a normal heterosexual chap, but in these new woke awakenings I now identify as a Wardrobe.

Cheers Ron. Thumbs Up

I've still to get around to getting a 3ton trolley jack, but i'll keep any eye out for the adaptor.

All finished, just a pair of xeons now and that's all that's being spent on it.
(well i say that for the time being) Laughing ATB
