The zip r3i turbocams come stock with low profile 12" tires but I have my 10s onhere6 Thats right, I forgot LoL! It would still be cool to get something like a 130/70 12 on the rear. Hell yeah I'd love to get that tire on here!!! I don't even think it'll fit deflated lmfao! I wonder if low profile 13" rims will fit a short case?

Picked up some hardware to remove and install bushings and some more gasket sealant tonight. Tomorrow I will do the work and install and see how she rides!!! Still need to upgrade from 14mm carb to a 19-21. Got one in mind from a member here!

You can fit a 12" rim with low profile tire. Might be a little wider and more stable.

Got the bearings out of the 90cc engine motor mounts and have ordered the motor mount bushings I need. Within a week they shall be at the store for me to pick up. Didn't want to pay shipping and my wife can pick them up on her way home from work

Ok so I got the link to the video Brent had to install bearings. Is there any video that shows how to install rubber bushings? I imagine it's a whole different ball park

Try the hot/cold method. If that doesn't work then you might have to press them in.

You heat the case and freeze the bushing

I imagine it's a whole different ball park The same technique can also be used for bushings. Threaded rod, nuts, and appropriately sized washers or sockets. You have to find something that fits the outer ring of the bushing.

Or will just freeze the bushing to shrink it and use the bolt n washers?

I just oiled mine and pulled them in, no hot or cold. Take is easy on the mounts if you heat them much, as they can easily crack if you apply pressure incorrectly, or pound on them trying to get the bushings in.
