Weld-on Rock Ring Installation
Step one - Use proper safety equipment (face shield,
gloves, etc.).
Step two – Using a grinder remove the paint, chrome, etc.
from the face of the wheel. The whole
area where the rock ring contacts the wheel should be bare metal.
Step three – Center the rock ring within the lip of the
rim. The ring should be sitting down
inside the outer edge of the wheel.
Step four - Tack weld the edge of the ring to the inner
lip of the wheel, skipping around the wheel a few inches at a time.
Step five – Fully weld the ring to the wheel making sure
the weld is of high quality (all welding should be performed by a certified
welder
Step six – Clean the wheel of all grinding dust and
degrease.
Step seven – Mask off all wheel surfaces to remain
unpainted.
Step eight – Apply
a primer to the rock ring and welded area, see primer can for manufacturer’s
directions.
Step nine – Apply desired paint to wheel using the same
directions as for the above steps.
