|  Easiest way to narrow beads Ok I just got my Junfac Beadlocks today from TCS and was wondering what the easiest way is to narrow them and what kind of glue to use? I saw the post where the guy used a drill press to get a straigh cut but I dont have a drill press so how can I get a straight cut? Thanks Justin |

| The last set of wheels I narrowed, I chucked a stub shaft in my hand drill and mounted the wheel up to it, and used a hacksaw to cut. Best glue? I used CA and it didn't hold up. I would think some kind of epoxy would work better? I've also seen people reinforce the seam with fiberglass. |

| I actually used the Truck and my lathe. Remove front driveshaft and put 1 wheel on the rear. Secure truck to workbench with said wheel hanging off edge. Have helper hold throttle and apply hobbie knife where needed. |
