Thumbs up Quick and dirty Dynabead install

Folks,

For those of you that would like to use Dynabeads, I just posted some easy instructions in the wheel and tire section.





Regards,

Thanks for the write up and pictures. I must have missed the "dirty" part.

Regards,
Good writeup, Where did you buy your Dynabeads? The last time I bought some was from Jake Wilson.

The engraver works well if putting the beads in tires already mounted. On a new tire mount, I just pop half of the tire on the rim and dump the bag inside the tire before popping the other side on. I have done it several times and no problems so far. Unless you are shacking the crap out of the tire during mounting the beads will spread out in the lower side wall and not give you any problems while mounting the high side.

Default Dynabeads

Max, the dirty part depends on what you use to vibrate the dynabeads into the tire, and its not the jackhammer, lol

I bought mine from innovativebalancing.com I had no idea somebody else like Jake Wilson has them. Probably cheaper too, I'll know next time, thanks.

Duh! Hey, I'm pure as the driven snow. Sometimes I need things explained to me.
