![]() ![]() The spacers I cut from plastic are not a true beadlock......just a way of keeping the tire in contact with the rim...originally I had hoped the tires alone would be enough to carry the load without the air filled tubes but the side walls are too thin....so being that I will only have tubes on the inside tires on the rear duals I needed to make the outside tires look the same somehow (the air filled tires are taller)....and the racquetballs seem to be a way to solve the problem....hope this makes sense......

That is a very nice idea. You can't just leave the air pressure low in both tires it would seem they would squat with a load in them if the pressure was low in both tires. Just an idea. You are doing a great job on the build and it will be heavy. Ed

Thanks Jammer.....using air filled tubes on all six tires would be good, the problem is in hiding the valve stem on the rear outside tire....rather not see a valve stem on the outside....the rims are two pcs and must be mounted before adding air, and there is no room to get at the valve stem between the duals if I put the valve stem toward the inside between the duals....hopefully the "racquetballs" will work instead of a tubes on the outside duals, time will tell......

You might try Canadian Tire and get a valve stem extender. Then you can drill another hole in the inside rim to bring it through the back. They make them a million different ways for every need.

Looks good-what is the purpose of the gear next to the sprocket on the drive motor? I saw this on the pictures of the sprocket when you were making them and didn't understand but thought it would make sense later, but I still don't get it.

How are you doing? Once again a very nice job. It won't belong now will it before you are going to be carry a load? Like they say all good things take time. Ed
