hi.any ideas on a jackpiner front wheel, if it needs a beadlock the old steel wheel didn't have one or even a hole for one.I am putting a newer aluminum wheel on and it has a hole for one. thanks

If it didn't have a hole for the rim lock just drill one. Use the rim lock. Always good to use one

Yes, I believe in rim locks. If you still have the wheel on the bike, spin it slowly and see where the heavy side of the wheel is. It will settle at the bottom or 6 o'clock position. Mark the rim 180 degrees opposite and drill the hole there for the rim lock. When you break down the tire to assemble it all, mark the tire and wheel and try to put it back in the same spot, then re-balance the whole deal.  Type at you later,
