AS REQUIRED
Special Tie Rod style dual wheels
((32) dual wheels)
a. Itis only permissible to install the inner
wheel with the rim inset (narrow tread
width). Do not torque the wheel lug nuts at
this time.
b. Place a jack under the axle housing and
raise one side. Remove every second
wheel mounting stud, 1, from the wheel
rim. Be sure a stud is removed on both
sides of the positioning lugs.
NOTE: Try not to remove a stud which
is aligned with the tube valve stem.
Valve stem access will then be
hampered by a dual rod later.
c. Check and retorque all remaining wheel
mounting nuts, 2, to 710 Nm (525 ft. lbs.).
e. Install the tie rod flanged backing nut
assembly into the holes in the inner
wheel. Secure each tie rod with an inner
tie rod flanged locknut, 5. Do not torque.
f. Install a spacer, 6, into the inside of the
inner wheel rim. Be sure the positioning
lugs on the inner wheel (one lug) and the
spacer (two lugs) interlock.
g. Lightly tap the spacer for a snug fit to the
inner wheel.
h. Rotate the outer wheel so that the
positioning lugs lock together - one lug on
the inside of the outer rim and two on the
spacer. All tie rods must protrude through
the holes provided on the outer wheel, 7.
NOTE: The outer wheel must be inset
the same as the inner wheel when
installed.
NOTE: Install the wheels so that both
inner and outer treads face the same
direction.
