When you guys bleach your skyways do you put the 2 in together or 1 @ a time? also where would i get axles and ball bearings for them?
Cheers :daumenhoch:

bendycateleven is your man for axle kits.
How bad are your Tuffs? put a few pictures up :daumenhoch:
-
no worries i'll get ya pics up now....when you grease the hubs how do you get the back of them done to stop the bleach from destroying them
-
good question, i've never done it but i'm guessing it's just a case of getting as much vasaline in there as you can with your fingers?
Are they going to be for a show bike or a rider?
-

the one on the left doesn't look to bad but the one on the right looks like it's been painted?
what about aqua blasting?
-
Not sure who does it over here mate,and ive just bought 20 liters of bleach,do you bleach them both together,could i try paint remover on them do you think. :daumenhoch:
-
Do them together mate,one on top of the other,plenty of grease on the hubs,to be honest I didn't do the backs on mine,didn't even think about it.
-
Have them in bleaching just hope it works,got a wee bit on the backs :daumenhoch:
