Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs very good idea. So drill out the stock back ring for 3mm and make a new front face correct? and add in the spacers for the width you want too. |

Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs All right here we go first drill out the old holes to 1/8 http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/t...g?t=1334597061 Then cut out the center. http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/t...g?t=1334597058 http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/t...g?t=1334597054 Next i use a cut off wheel for a dremal you can get at the hardware store. http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/t...g?t=1334597051 http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/t...g?t=1334597047 |
Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs So fare so good. http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/t...g?t=1334597043 To make sure it's flat i use a milling bet. http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/t...g?t=1334597039 The next step you'll need a 2 5/8 hole saw. http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/t...g?t=1334597036 Make sure your drill is at low speed . http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/t...g?t=1334597032 Then take your old rings clap it to the new ring and use a 1/8 drill ,drill them out at the same time after you drill one hole use a old 3mm to keep it lined up. http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/t...g?t=1334597029 http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/t...g?t=1334597025 http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/t...g?t=1334597021 http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/t...g?t=1334597018 |

Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs Those came out killer!"thumbsup" |
Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs This is a really awesome Tech thread! Thanks for making it! P.S. You sure its a 2-5/8" hole saw and not a 2-3/8" hole saw?? 2-5/8" seems awfully big for a 2.2 disk. |
Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs Quote:
Turbo... hole saw's are measured outside to outside of the teeth... and take about 3/16" cut out of the material, so you are left with less than the hole saw's outer measurement......... that would be my guess why that size...... |
Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs Thanx Mike your right on the money"thumbsup" |
Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs Those are very cool man. Nice work |
Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs those look just like D_lux wheels now :shock: ........bob .... |
Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs Nah, I knew they were measured for O.D., I just didnt realize they took off that much material between I.D and O.D. Thanks for the clarification. |
