A standard cone locates the wheel by pushing into the centre bore — the hole in the middle. But most wheels do not actually locate on that hole when they are bolted to the vehicle; they locate on the studs and the flat mounting face. Balance a wheel on its centre bore, fit it to the hub on its bolt circle, and any difference between those two centres becomes a vibration that was never on the balancer's display.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eA flange plate mounts the wheel the way the vehicle does. The result is a balance that holds when the wheel goes back on the car, which is the only place the balance actually matters.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWhen a cone is not enough\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eMost of the time a cone is fine, and nobody should replace their cones with this.

The caliper is not an afterthought: the flange has to be set to the wheel's actual bolt circle, and measuring that accurately is what makes the whole method work. A flange set by eye reintroduces exactly the error it was bought to remove.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWill It Fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis is tooling for Ranger wheel balancers, and it has to match the shaft on the machine you own. Balancer shafts vary in diameter and thread between models, so \u003cstrong\u003ebefore ordering, tell us which Ranger balancer you have — model number from the plate, not from memory — and we will confirm the fit.\u003c\/strong\u003e That check takes a minute and prevents the most common problem with balancer tooling, which is a kit that is correct in every respect except the one that matters.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ctable\u003e \u003ctbody\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eShipping weight\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e18-lbs.

It ships within the lower 48 states at 18-lbs. (8.1 kg). Check the packaging before you sign for it and note any damage on the delivery receipt in writing. Ranger's warranty terms are in the warranty document linked on this page, and that document governs; on tooling, contact us before modifying or machining any part of the kit, because an altered flange is no longer the part the manufacturer supplied.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"divider\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn11.bigcommerce.com\/s-ew8kwapfc4\/images\/stencil\/original\/image-manager\/golden-bar.png?t=1681903157\" alt=\"\" width=\"1198\" height=\"8\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv id=\"kd-main-product-details-container\" class=\"kd-main-product-details-container\"\u003e \u003ch3 class=\"h3 accordion\"\u003eProduct Features\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"panel\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"kd-product-details-continer kd-flex-row\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"kd-prouduct-details-item\"\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e8-pc. kit\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes centering pin adapters\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eits most import and domestic vehicles\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBalance wheels with greater accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes flange plate kit\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes measuring caliper\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"divider\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn11.bigcommerce.com\/s-ew8kwapfc4\/images\/stencil\/original\/image-manager\/golden-bar.png?t=1681903157\" alt=\"\" width=\"1198\" height=\"8\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv id=\"kd-main-product-spec-container\" class=\"kd-main-product-spec-container\"\u003e \u003ch3 class=\"h3 accordion\"\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"panel\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"kd-product-spec-continer kd-flex-row\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"kd-prouduct-spec-item\"\u003e \u003ctable border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\"\u003e \u003ctbody\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd align=\"left\"\u003eShipping Dimensions\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd align=\"right\"\u003e14\" x 14\" x 6\" (355 mm x 355 mm x 152 mm)\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd align=\"left\"\u003eShipping Weight\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd align=\"right\"\u003e18-lbs.
