Rims for Graco 3900???????

Bearings are shot race is rusted in rim. I'm figuring just buy new rims with bearings. Any ideas where to get them? 8" rim but what's the hub width?

The bearing races are a rust proof material and should drive or press out with no problem. They are not a Graco product and can be found at most automotive stores. There will be a number (probably Timcan) om the brg. What is hard to find is the seals.

Yea the races are stainless but the rim isn't. Rusted bad. Was thinking just get new rims. The rear seal is hard to find?

Depending on what you have in the way of tools or if you know someone with a welder with everything disassembled weld a bead completely around the inside of the race and let cool. it should fall right out. The bead actually shrinks the entire race.

why not drive it out with a drift or punch? We got the seal @ brown bearing with the bearing and race no problem. good luck

Take it to a shop that has a press to press it out like a axle or hub bearing

Yea that's what I did. Punched the bearings out. I was just figuring for a few more $$'s get rim tire bearing complete but didn't have time to wait for shipping. She rolls better then new now

Try this link. I think they are 1 inch axles. THey also have 3/4 axles http://www.easternmarine.com/480x8-x-1-fixed-hub-tire-rim… http://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_48405_48405
