You guessed it JB - a guard of sorts.
This has bugged me for a while. I will be doing a lot of off road gravel/dirt/scrub tracks over the next 6 months so time to get it done.
I thought of just putting a cheap fabric wheel cover on but this would wear thru where the stones hit it. A wheel cover would also fill up with water and fall off from the weight after leaving creek/river crossings.
What I need is a solid shield that can be held in place.
Take one new undamaged wheel
Alfoil several times
Liberal coating of silicon - or wax
Cover with 2 layers high density woven fibreglass cloth
Add resin to each layer
Let set...
Got the idea from another NH member who made a fibreglass sub box using the deep side of a wheel. Easy
Will trim, cut centre hub, drill wheel nut holes, coat with tub liner on the exposed side and add thin backing of some sort to prevent vibration abrasion to wheel paint. Any ideas of what to use other than foam tape?
