Weld on beadlocks

sarge · 01-16-2008, 05:35 PM

Not DOT approved and Not Legal to run on the street are two different things.
There is not a cop on the street that could look at my DIY beadlocks and tell me that I did them myself , or that they are not DOT approved or for that matter tell me if they are real bead locks.

That being said , there are numerous companies out there selling DIY kits , the really good deals normally do not come with hardware, so check and see with each company. I'm running Bobby Longfield Bead locks ( I don't think he makes them anymore) I have zero complaints and zero issues with them. Check on Pirate4x4 in the venders section.

If Fabricator doens't make them in 16's I know Great Lake Offroad makes some nice ones. I think they are around $225 shipped. There are also tons on Pirate, including Great Lake.
