Oops, looking again I was being too optimistic. My bad. Stu

Edit - might be that the pictures don't show the concave side fully. On a widow maker I'd expect to see the raised band like joint. As I think on it there was a two piece style with a sort of semi-drop in the rim base. Better picture, and numbers would settle it. Stu

Upon review of the first picture in post 25 and the picture in 26, it appears they are either widow makers or one of the other similar two piece wheels that would be undesirable. The riveted band in the center of the concave part was a little blurry in the first pic. In the other pics, it seems clear there is no locking ring on the convex part of the wheel.

OP is best to keep hunting the 22.5s imo. I just saw a set on an IH framed walk in delivery truck. Pretty sure this was an older truck.

Looking at the current Morgan-Olson site, they show a picture of the low-end truck with a Freightliner chassis with 6 lug wheels:

They must be making them somewhere it would seem.

Think these are safe for moving it and testing?

Sure, no-load short trips at modest speeds. Check 'em every time you walk up to it....

Lol yea. Im used to that for my job. I was gonna price out 9 or 10x20 and just keep these wheels if they were lock ring. But alas I have to buy new ones. I don't mind putting the money into it. On a side note, is the brale pedal gonna be stiff to the point of not moving if engine is off? I'm hoping master isn't siezed

Without the power brake booster, you and two friends would have to press on the pedal to stop the truck from anything over 2 mph.

Good. Lol. I was hoping it wasn't siezed. Anyone know brake line size? Po said he thinKS it has a leak. Cylinders look nice and dry though. Throttle pedal is stuck but we have to rebuild carb anyway
