Truck Wheel Balancers: Matching Wheel Load, Size and Mounting Setup

A truck wheel balancer must be chosen for the complete wheel assembly—not for the tire size or a headline weight rating alone. Before ordering, a workshop should check the heaviest tire-and-rim assembly it services, the largest outside diameter, rim width, centering method, spindle and adapter configuration, and how the wheel will be loaded. A machine […]

Tire Changer Assist Arms: When Do They Help and What Must Fit?

A tire changer assist arm helps control tire-bead and sidewall position during certain mounting and demounting operations, but it does not make every wheel compatible with the machine.

Next, check the complete mounted tire’s outside diameter and width against the machine’s limits. Finally, consider wheel design, tire stiffness, vehicle application, and the machine’s available […]

Buyers need to measure the lowest overhead obstruction, the height of the vehicles to be serviced, the lift’s raised structure, the working height required by the job and the surrounding bay dimensions. A lift that fits a passenger […]

What Should Buyers Check on a Car Lift Installation Drawing?

A car lift installation drawing should be reviewed before the order is released, not only when the equipment arrives. The drawing helps buyers confirm whether the selected lift can physically fit the bay, accept the intended vehicle range, maintain safe clearances, connect to the available utilities and meet the site conditions required for installation. A […]
