Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the durometer rating of the wheels on the GWK-LR2055-LW and what does it mean?
A: The GWK-LR2055-LW features 70 Shore D durometer polyurethane wheels. This rating indicates medium-hardness material suitable for general warehouse use, providing good floor protection and extended wheel life. Lower durometer (softer) wheels mark floors less but wear faster; higher durometer (harder) wheels last longer but may mark sensitive floors.
Q: Is the GWK-LR2055-LW kit a load wheel kit or complete wheel replacement kit?
A: The GWK-LR2055-LW is a load wheel replacement kit, not a complete kit. It includes dual load wheel assemblies only. If your steer wheels also need replacement, order them separately or contact the manufacturer for the complete kit option.
Q: Does the GWK-LR2055-LW include bearing maintenance information?
A: The kit includes sealed precision ball bearings that require no periodic lubrication. Sealed bearings are pre-greased at assembly. Do not attempt to relubricate sealed bearings, as this can degrade seals and introduce contamination. Replace bearings when worn, not when seized or noisy.
Q: What tools do I need to install the GWK-LR2055-LW on my Lift-Rite LR2055?
A: You need a socket set to match your jack fasteners (typically 10 mm, 12 mm, or 15 mm), a cotter pin removal tool or small pry bar, and a wrench or socket for the axle shaft nuts. No specialized pallet jack tools are required. Installation requires approximately 10 minutes per wheel assembly.
Q: Are the axle shafts in the GWK-LR2055-LW replaceable or part of the assembly?
A: The kit includes hardened steel axle shafts as part of the complete load wheel assembly. Individual axle replacement is not recommended; replace the entire wheel and bearing assembly if the shaft is bent or damaged. This ensures proper bearing alignment and seal integrity.
Q: Can I use the GWK-LR2055-LW on a Big Joe LR2055 or only Lift-Rite?
A: The GWK-LR2055-LW is designed specifically for Lift-Rite model LR2055. Big Joe and Lift-Rite share some models, but verify the exact model nameplate on your jack. Contact the manufacturer if your Big Joe jack model matches the LR2055 specification to confirm cross-compatibility.
