[For Sale] Wheel fitting guide tools
Hello Chaps, I'm a refugee from the full fat rr forum, and I'm here to ask if any of you might be interested in an invention that I have developed with the aid of the boys on the FFRR forum.
Basically I have a number of guides, or to give them their real name Guide-o-Matic sets, and I'm offering them exclusively to forum members @ £34.99 per set delivered in the UK, I am more than willing to send them outside the UK, with the possible exception of China , but the cost will be more! So far I have had nothing but happy customers including Cam Tech Craig, who is possibly known to your selves!

I'm not scared, I'm outta here.
I think having come over from the FF site, he's probably cleared the path with Martin, but yes get a few posts on for PMing, feels weird when you jump across sites and have to start again doesn't it Altox GSM FBH controller thread

I find guides are only needed on wheels/hubs that use bolts where you need to find/align the holes, never a problem on studs - as on LR

Miggit, good to see you're designing labour saving devices. The butlers will be well pleased.
Haven't read past page 1 yet but I like the shovel idea.

Ah, it kind of is. Will change it sometime when I get bored with it. Especially now the ice has melted and I'm no longer falling on my backside.

Great idea as I have great fun getting the wheels back on and have sent PM.
However they will need to be 'male' threaded rather than 'female' threaded (as shown in the photo) to work on the D3.Club Narpy Torch

This is exactly what I’ve been looking for. I have a Front Runner swing away carrier on the back, and this does not have a centric hub for the wheel to locate onto. Therefore when lifting the wheel onto the carrier it sits on the studs, and is a right pain to try and balance the wheel and try and fit the wheel nuts.
I most definitely want one. You need to do a few more posts so I can PM you, and you can reply.
Cheers
John
