Hardest part for me was getting the wheels back onto the hubs without scratching / gouging anything! LOL.

I got some yellow on tonight, new yellow is always crazy bright. I found that my I beam that I put in my shed is pretty handy for using wire to hangs things to paint. I'm only limited by how many vice grips I have to clamp on the beam for the wire hangers.Last edited by 53 Chevy5; 12-11-2018 at 08:08 PM.

I bet you are ready for it to leave! I really dislike sand blasting in the winter. The mask always fogs up or the line/handle freezes up. Just no fun to an already crappy job.

I clicked the like button 'cause I appreciated the pic and the effort..
But I never could pull it off without damage either. I even tried the greased mat under the tire where it slides into place but it was no better cause the tires are just to heavy to move smoothly/easily.

Even the combine tires are getting ridiculously heavy. I think the super thick wheels are a lot of it. I remember taking 30.5's off combines in junk yards and they were heavy but they're huge.Ryan

I can't remember the who and other specifics but the other day an ad popped up for a hydraulic lift wheel dolly that makes moving big tires and wheels an easy one-person job. Shouldn't be too hard to seek out if you are interested..
Education is expensive. Keep that in mind, and you'll never be terribly upset when a project goes awry.

So installing the trex bed wood got me thinking about all the heat from the exhaust and the possible melting of the wood. Also noticed the floor on the passenger side getting hot on a warm day. So...
