Dave 0 #4 Posted April 21, 2008 I can't afford weights like that but would the front end of a C81 hold up a really heavy bumper? I have some angle iron and an old 4 inch box beam I could weld together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sparky-(Admin) 21,300 #8 Posted April 22, 2008 I can't afford weights like that but would the front end of a C81 hold up a really heavy bumper? I have some angle iron and an old 4 inch box beam I could weld together. I think the front end will take the weighted bumper but it might steer hard at slow speeds( like we go fast right ). Front wheel weights would not affect steering and you would get the same results. Mike.............. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wse100 0 #9 Posted April 22, 2008 jrfan882008, Did you pour the lead then drill where the lugs went, or did you build in holes? Also what prep did you do to the old rim to make it a "mold". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Front wheel weights would not affect steering and you would get the same results. Mike.............. That's my problem, no steering at low speeds or starting off. Sometimes the frond end comes up. If they're just lead, I can melt some and pour it into a mold of some kind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
