Wanted a pair of wheel alignment guides.
I have had a pair for years, bought as part of a forum group buy, but have sadly lost them , which I only realised when I came to change the front wheels this week.
Has anyone got a set they no longer need??

Do you mean the things that Powerful UK sell?
I got a couple and used them yesterday for the first time, defo makes changing wheels easier. “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” -where’s the fun in that?

You mean these...

Thanks Pete , yes thats them, they work fine, my only criticism would be they need a smooth lead-in taper on the knurled end to avoid chewing the paint off inside the wheel holes. Not sure the knurlng is really neccesary IMHO. “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” -where’s the fun in that?

Thanks for the link, Gremlin & Pete.
As you say, my originals were not knurled and had a tapered end , also I had two of different lengths
which worked well.
Either the wheels have got heavier or I am too old to be lifting wheels without them .

Mike, you could cover the pegs in a bit of heatshrink. That would stop the knurling from filing off the paint. I guess its intended to give you something to grip when you are screwing the pegs in.
The weight in bigger alloys and tyres is serious.

@Proftinkerpot

The heatshrink idea is possibly a good idea if it doesn’t increase the pin OD too much or increase friction too much. “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” -where’s the fun in that?

It doesn’t take much to make me happy, but this morning I was over the moon when I found my long lost wheel pegs.😁😁😁

@Baltic Blue:

Let me guess, you found them in “a safe place”, put there “so you would never lose them”?

(I’m laughing, but do that ALL the time Old age, perhaps?)  “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” -where’s the fun in that?

Exactly
I moved house 3 years ago and “safely “ packed all my tools, and obviously haven’t needed them until recently when I was doing my pre MOT service.
