Anybody know the approximate weight of H/M rear wheel hubs? I'm not real strong and work alone almost all the time. I think I can wrestle the tires and rims they're not loaded, but need to get the hubs off to sandblast and paint. Maybe a front end loader could help??

A few weeks ago I flipped my wheels around by myself on my M. I pulled the rim/tire off from the centers, slide the centers out, and flipped them around, and re-installed the rim/tire to the centers. It wasn't easy, but at 6'5'' and 280lbs I'm not exactly a small guy. I'd seek help or use an engine hoist if you don't think you can handle it. They're a LOT heavier than they look.

I don't know the weight, but it takes two stout men to pick one up from the ground and put it in the bed of a pick-up truck.

Use an engine hoist, take the rims off first, if not loaded the rims are fairly easy to move. Use the hoist for the centers, and be careful, I have tipped an engine hoist before. If it has wheel weights, take them off. If the tires are loaded, get a farm tire place to remove the fluid. Fluid will add 5-600 or so pounds depending on tire size, more than I care to mess with.

I have done it with a floor jack on an H center, but it was a little precarious. Much better to have a helper if you could get one.

use a loader or cherry picker (hoist)! They are way to heavy to lift by hand. I think they must go nearly 200 lbs. I can install wheel weights by myself with ease but I cannot put on the center without additional help.
