Installation of the Bolt-On Beadlock Ring
Installation of the bolt-on beadlock ring uses a technique similar to that of installing a cylinder head.
- Position the bolt-on ring over the tire bead.
- Prepare each beadlock bolt with anti-seize before installing.
- Start 4 bolts by hand in the 12, 3, 6, and 9 o'clock positions. It may be necessary to use 15" to 2.0" long bolts at first to start these 4 bolts and then replace them with the enclosed 1.25" long bolts after the rest of the bolts have been started.
- Continue to start the remaining bolts by hand.
- Begin tightening each bolt with a speed wrench in a crisscross pattern until they are fingertip tight.
- Continue tightening with the speed wrench in a crisscross pattern until each bolt is hand tight.
- Torque each bolt, in the crisscross pattern with small increments at a time.
- Begin torqueing each bolt in a clockwise or counterclockwise pattern to proper torque specs.
