The float is a tandem axle, with braked axle, 5 stud with a 5" PCD. What are the (hopefully) 14" wheel options, and does anyone have a pair or more available? HQ holden.

MaxPower Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Am building a hefty log splitter soon, how do I join my hydraulic ram to my splitting plate without special tools? Not much force should be on the return stroke . Need to be able to rebuild the ram in the future too. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighLUX Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Pipe over that machined part of the ram with a bolt thru it then weld the pipe to the wedge/go pretend you want to hire one from the hire center to have a look how they are set up 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxPower Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Ah sweet guessing normal sharp drill bits will go through the ram with some lube Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bling Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 If there isn't much force on the reverse motion, could just weld some nuts to a tube and tighten bolts through them onto the shaft. like this 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nominal Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 It's handy to have decent pull on a splitter for wood that gets stuck though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bling Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Put bigger bolts on I've never tried the above, but a couple of bolts would create a pretty decent grip I would think? Could always flat spot the shaft where the bolts are and cut the bolt flat too. Can do that if it falls off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUNAMUCK Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 We all know about copper, platinum, and iridium. But tonight I learned there's an even more spendy spark plug made with ruthenium. I'd never heard of them before. How about you lot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raizer Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Have heard of them, meant to last about twice as long as iridium plugs. Have seen them marketed as "lifetime plugs" or something like that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUNAMUCK Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 A Google search I did after learning of them said they can improve fuel economy too. Given on rock auto they're a quarter the price of what youd pay for iridium's here, 8m thinking why the fuck not? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bling Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 The shipping cost lol. Haven't been back in a while, but shipping was brutal last time I looked to put together some parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
