• Molykote g-n paste (MTS part number 011-010-217).
• Nikal based anti-galling compound (MTS part number 011-354-902)
Procedure
1. Remove the current wheel from the test vehicle.
2. Clean all surfaces of the vehicle tire(s) and the modified rim(s). It is critical
that all surfaces be free of stones, burrs, and grease. Use a mild detergent
such as dish soap.
Important It is imperative that the mounting surfaces of the transducer be
protected from getting scratched. Any wheel components and work
surfaces that might come in contact with the transducer must be
clean, smooth, and free of debris

Front Rim Dual Rims
M16 X 1.5 mm *
* The length of these fasteners is dependant on the thickness of the
rim flange. The fastener length must ensure a minimum thread
engagement of 37 mm (1.46 in) but must not exceed 43 mm (1.69
in).
