Maz's Universal Wheel Truing Jig
Just in case any of you haven't got a wheel truing jig yet and need one, here's one I made which takes rim sizes from super skinny 2.50x21 right up to 18 inches wide...

As you can see from the pics, it can take wheels with and without a spindle (axle bolt) and has dual run-out pointers.....I think I did some drawings of this I'll post them if I can find them......Maz xx

Re: Maz's Universal Wheel Truing Jig
Hi maz and curt, i will be adding the wheel trueing setup you built to my long list of other projects i would like to do. I love the look of nice chrome rims with spokes. Eventually i would like to put a set of them on my honda bobber build.
