CHIEFWAHO Posted May 14, 2018 Report Share Posted May 14, 2018 Wrestled some new drive tires on CHIEF this weekend. Fortunate that my uncle has equipment and some know how for the job! The old tires a little past due at 11 years old. Were just starting to show some weather checking. 1" impact to bust'em loose! Went with 295/75R22.5 KORYO K516 PREMIUM CLOSED SHOULDER Loaded to get them to tire shop for balancing sometime this week. 1999 Volvo VNL610, Cummins M11 - 350/400 HP, 10 speed Rockwell - 'CHIEF' Custom flatbed with TrailerSaver air hitch. 3 cyl 8000 watt Kubota diesel generator.

CHIEFWAHO Posted May 22, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Got the new drives all balanced up. It is a real chore getting these back on by yourself. Inner goes on pretty easy compared to the outside dual. The outside dual has to be darn near horizontal to drop over the hub. Had use a ratchet strap to aid in this process. Guess I did not bet pictures with the skirts and new lug nut chrome caps installed. Getting ready to having things all ready for our trip to California this July. We are pulling the Jeep Scramblers out to run the Rubicon Trail. 1999 Volvo VNL610, Cummins M11 - 350/400 HP, 10 speed Rockwell - 'CHIEF' Custom flatbed with TrailerSaver air hitch. 3 cyl 8000 watt Kubota diesel generator.
