Posted: Wed Jan 12, 2011 5:40 pm Post subject: Finish Kit Wheel Replacement

Getting ready to order the Finish Kit prior to the price increase.  I am 

substituting a few items for aftermarket versions, but am having some 

trouble finding replacement part numbers for the wheels and tires.  I 

believe the following items are from the Finish Kit with regards to 

wheels and tires that can be replaced?



2.00  U 15X6.0-6                        MAIN TIRE 6 PLY RV-10

2.00  U 15X6.0-6IT                      INNER TUBE MAIN RV-10

1.00  U 5:00X5-6                        6 PLY TIRE MAIN GEAR

1.00  U 5:00X5-6IT                      TUBE FOR 5:005-6

1.00  U CLEVELAND 199-104A              6" RV-10 WHEELS SETS

1.00  U NW501.25                        NOSE WHEEL W/BEARINGS

1.00  U-1009                            AXLE



I believe the nose wheel NW501.25is replaced by Matco WHLNW511.25 and 

the U-1009 is replaced by the Matco Axle?



Can the tubes be kept and just replace the tires and wheels?  Is it just 

the nose wheel or the mains too?  Is the CLEVELAND wheel sets part above 

kept even with the replacements?



Thanks,

I just replaced the nose wheel and axel.  Be sure to get the spacers for the

axel too.   I overlooked them initially.



The Cleveland wheel set also includes your brakes, so you'll need to take

that into consideration if you are planning on replacing those with Matco

wheels too.



I am having a problem with my nose wheel tube.  It's only maintain air for

about two days.  I don't know if it's defective or if I may have pinched or

punctured it myself.  I guess I need to order a new tube.  What do folks

recommend?

This site has the leakproof tubes and the tires. Vans gets the tires from 

this source so you can get the Airtrac but it also gives the option to take 

retread or new better tires as well.

Get the Matco wheels and axle, should be able to use the cleveland set. Ask 

Matco when you call them.



Besides the tires get the windscreen and wingtips as well.

Thanks guys.  I'll probably just start out with replacing the nose wheel 

and axle with a Matco WHLNW511.25 and  Matco Axle and maybe getting the 

leakguard tubes.  Seems vansaircrafttires doesn't have a leakguard tube 

for the 500-5 nose tire?

Replace the windscreen and wingtips, both the same price as Vans, but better 

quality and less work to make them fit, as they are 1/8 off all around from 

being a perfect fit as received.

Here are both tube links

Retreads are better and less expensive than the stock tires. core is 

Goodyear FC III usually and weight is not much different than the stocks. I 

will replace mie with the retreads when the time comes.. for more info check 

out Tim's review and Aviation consumer news (articles tab of Desser home 

page)

I am a little confused.  I purchased a quick-build fuselage and it came 

with the windscreen.  The wingtips came with the self-build wing kit.  

But I get the impression that these come with the finish kit from the 

text below.  Am I missing something?  I guess it is too late for me to 

consider these products from vanaircrafttires.



In a more confused state than usual.

No, you are correct.  I just asked about the finish kit and Pascal threw 

in a promo for the other items as well.

Sean,



for the nosewheel:



remove from Finishing Kit:

     1x U NW501.25 NOSE WHEEL W/BEARINGS

     1x U-1009 AXLE NOSE WHEEL



order from Matco:

http://www.matcomfg.com/SPACERAXLE24KIT-idv-3681-44.html

that is:

1x WHLAXLE24 56.24$

1x WHLA24SPKIT

1x WHLNW511.25



That is what I did, not yet mounted but should be the correct items, 

maybe Michael did as I ordered also a set for him.

Try Desser Tire for tire and tube replacements. I have used them for 10+ 

years. They are a major player. They are also selling after market lens, etc 

for RV10. Cleveland is the place for main wheels and matco is the supplier 

for nose wheel (the correct one). Cleveland has a kit (199104) for the 

wheels. Buy it from one of their dealers.

nose with the matco axle and spacers.

Been so long I forgot what came with what..

I guess for others that haven't gotten the fusellage than the windscreen 

applies.
