Line and painted a couple gas tanks for the I 615 and RL 415. Also, took the old tires off and clean up rims and put new tires on. Almost forgot to put a new location for the valve core hole.            |

| How do you make the flat spot in the rim for the new valve stem? |

Nice. Have a few wheel/tire projects to do this year myself. Waiting for warmer weather to do the wire brushing outside! |

I use a torch and heat the area up red, use a piece of wood under the rim to support and a piece of metal as wide the one use to be there and hit with hammer. |

When I have a rusted out valve stem hole, I just weld in a washer. ------------- If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere. Real pullers don't have speed limits. If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY |
