Removal of rear tires to do brakes
Ok getting ready to start rear brakes and was told this morning that i need a square socket also along with the 1 1/2 inch socket for the removal of rear tires was wondering about that, this is on my 85--35ft Regency on MCC chassis

Bob, the square socket is to remove the lug nuts/studs from the inner wheel after the outer wheel has been removed.

rear tires:

here is an image, at the 2 O'clock position, of an inner square drive nut.



First you remove the outer nut - then the outer tire - then the inner nut - then the inner tire. Each tire is held on by its own mounting nut.

Please get part numbers and item mfg with prices. Have Connie take some pics.

There is a combination socket for Budd wheels (it looks like you have 'em). It isn't cheap, however.

Here's a quick stupid question regarding GM P30 coaches. Do we have to deal with this situation if we ever have to remove our duals?

well i purchased the budd socket ((1 1/2 in with a 13/16 center square)) tested it for a fit and seemed alittle loose then tried a 1 7/16 socket and that was to small am thinking metric , probally a 38mm,,,,wonder if that will change the 13/16 square nut ?

Just curious, do any of you know what your wheels are supposed to be torqued to? Is it the same for all Barths or does it vary any?

I don't know on the P30 Danny. Do you see anything that looks like a square head on the inside of the stud? You can easily see that without removing the outer tire. Instead of a circular stud with threads going to the end, it'll look like a square bolt head.

On my Gasoline Powered Ford with the Oshkosh/John Deere chassis I have that same Budd style inner and outer nuts too.

The P-30 only uses the typical Lug. No special tools required

Each chassis model calls for a different torque, mine depending on the lug size. The 84 P30, for example, calls for either 110-140 lb ft (for 9/16" lugs) pr 130-180 lbs ft for 5/8" lugs)

My 19.5 wheels call for 130-180 lbs ft.

You guys have it easy. Big Grin I have to be between 450-500 ft lbs on my bus. Good thing i have a torque multiplier, set my torque wrench for 50 lbs and i am good. Smiler
