Went to Sears last night to get six new tires installed on the 92 and was totally disgusted. Someone has three different style wheels on this truck and I need to figure out which are the right ones.
The right rear has two matching wheels that have the "cup and cone" I call it on the flanges where the wheels go together.
The left rear has two what appear to be newer wheels like on my 99.
The wheels on the front look like something off another brand truck and don't match anything on the truck.

Man, I hate mismatched stuff on a vehicle.
The question is, which wheels are correct for the 92 year? The cup and cone or the flat flange?
I need to find six matching wheels. The left front is bouncing so bad, it almost jerks the wheel out of your hand. It was doing it before but I thought it was the tires since they were cupped pretty bad. Now I know why.
I'm gonna rotate wheels around tomorrow if Charley don't dump too much liquid sunshine on us, to see if I can get the bouncing to stop until I can find the right wheels.

My 90 has all interlocking, cup and cone.

The reason it's bouncing it that the wheel isn't centered on the hub. There's nothing to positively center the wheel on the hub, front or rear. What kind of thought that would be a good idea?

With the old duallys, the trick is to get 2 tapered lug nuts. These are used to center the wheel before the rest of the lug nuts are put on, then the taperd nuts are replaced with flange nuts and it's on to the next wheel. Do this on all 4 corners and it should run smooth - once you get the correct wheels.

 

I saw two tapered lug nuts while he had the right front off. I wonder if he just didn't put them on right? It is bouncing way worse now than before.

 

The tapered nuts are only used for centering the wheels, the truck isn't run with them on. You replace them with the flanged nuts once all the other nuts are tight. Sounds like you got the "mixed nuts" option.

 

Knowing my luck, it's a wonder there are any there, they probably super glued the wheels on.
