BEADLOCK MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION:  Read these instructions thoroughly before mounting tires.

  1. Tires should only be mounted according to good tire mounting practices using acceptable tire mounting equipment designed for the tire industry.


  2. Remove the outer beadlock ring from the wheel.


  3. Mount tire from the beadlock side only. Mount inner bead over the wheel like normal. Seat the tire outer bead in the shoulder of the beadlock inner ring on the wheel and center the tire.


  4. Place the ring onto the tire and align the bolt holes with the inner beadlock ring.


  5. All bolts should be started by hand to avoid cross threading.
    Please Note: Impact wrenches are not recommended at any point during installation of the beadlock ring due to the possibility of over or under tightening the bolts.


  6. Tighten the bolts in a criss-cross pattern a few turns at a time to ensure even pressure on the beadlock ring.


  7. Tighten the bolts to the following torque specs:

    Trac-Lock front 4 ft/lbs
    Trac-Lock rear8 ft/lbs
    Pro-Lock10 ft/lbs
    Type 7 Beadlock12 ft/lbs


  8. The outer ring should be pulled down to meet the inner ring. The outer ring will flex to match the tire bead.


  9. Use tire mounting lube on the tire/wheel opposite the beadlock to ensure a proper seat for the tire.


  10. Inflate the tire to seat the inner bead onto the wheel. Do not exceed the tire manufacturer’s recommended maximum pressure for seating the beads.

If you have any questions during the beadlock installation process please contact our customer service department.
