Re: 1955 Ford Club Sedan Refresh Blog
When I re-did my wheel, I feared it might fall over and ruin the work, so I affixed the wheel to the top of a 4ft step ladder. The arrangement consisted of; a scrap of wood 2x4 with a hole in the middle to match the thread size of a bolt long enough to poke thru the hub of the wheel while it sat on an aluminum soda or beer can with the top of the can punched out crudely to allow the cancelling tube to fit thru. I punched out the bottom of the can for the long bolt to fit thru and thread into the wood 2x4. Then I temporarily screwed the scrap of wood to the top of the stepladder. The only way it could have fallen is if the entire stepladder fell over.
