DIY beadlocks with anti-coning ring

[Silverhorse]

That makes sense. Thank you.

No problem, Thats why I'm here!;D

Those are the ones I was talking about. They have a stamped ring so no coning and they come with hardware. I know lots of guys running their setup and they thrash on their rigs. If you are interested I can get you a number to call and you will save big $$$ over the website price.

Anti-coning ring's don't cause leaks unless they are to big. 1/2 should work fine on all wheels.
Most of the locks I see that leak are from crappy welds.
I got mine from DIY4x.com and they don't leak.
When I welded them, I tacked the rings on, then I borrowed a turn table, and placed the wheel on it. This way I just had to hold the gun and the turn table to turn the wheel for me.

That already looks like a good price. What all is included in a kit? Does it do all 4 or just one?

Hey Doc,
Did you get your rings painted to match your doors? ;D

HAHAHA ! OUCH ! Straight for the throat , why don't you rip on that broke a$$ Dana 44 of his while you're at it.;D

That Price Is Per Wheel With Hardware.

Long live the 16.5 tire and H1's. Std beadlocks are a PIA with all the bolts.

Have you seen these? Not sure if its what your looking for, but works with almost any wheel, and is a inner and outer bead lock. Great design. Think it might be better than actual bead locks... Just a thought.

There just happens to be a DIY beadlock article in the current issue of CRAWL. Pretty good except for the fact the bonehead uses steel BB's for balancing.

Yeah this is the issue to get. They have a good article on the SOB gathering in Oregon. So there is actual Broncos in the mag. instead of just high dollar monster crawlers with Bronco skins.

What grade bolts are you guys using on the beadlocks? 5 or 8

I am running poison spyder bead locks, 17x9.5. I just copied and pasted this from their site.


Grade 8 Nickel Plated 3/8" socket head hardware is standard on all Spyder Locks.

Oh, nice products! The bolt head is flush with the outer bead.
