oops rim

Recommended Posts

Hadn't noticed the missing lug or the cracked one. Need to go to Specsavers. :rolleyes: A good fabricator/welder should be able to repair it. Get it cleaned up and have a good look at the third lug.

That will weld OK but don't attempt it with the tyre still on the rim - even deflated, nasty things can happen. Also, it may be wise to add some reinforcement inside the rim and inspect the insides of the other welds for cracking.
