Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is GWK-MPB040EXL-LW the same as GWK-MPB040E-LW-XL?
A: No. GWK-MPB040EXL-LW and GWK-MPB040E-LW-XL are separate kits with different specifications. GWK-MPB040EXL-LW uses 97A durometer polyurethane with sealed roller bearing systems and is designed for Yale MPB 040 E model B827. Always match the exact part number on your invoice to avoid fitment issues.
Q: What Grade 8 fasteners are included in GWK-MPB040EXL-LW?
A: GWK-MPB040EXL-LW includes Grade 8 mounting hardware such as axle nuts, cotter pins, and washers. Grade 8 fasteners provide superior shear strength and corrosion resistance compared to standard hardware. Do not substitute lower-grade fasteners during reassembly, as loose wheels can cause loss of control and injury.
Q: Can I install GWK-MPB040EXL-LW on a Yale MPB 040 AB model?
A: No. GWK-MPB040EXL-LW is configured for MPB 040 E series only. The alternative configuration GWK-MPB040AB-LW is available for Yale Model MPB 040 AB series. Attempting to force-fit an E-series kit to an AB frame will damage axle bores and mounting flanges. Always verify your model code before purchasing.
Q: What maintenance is required for the sealed roller bearing systems in GWK-MPB040EXL-LW?
A: Sealed roller bearing systems require no lubrication or scheduled maintenance. Periodically inspect for corrosion or water ingress, especially if the jack is stored outdoors. If bearings become noisy or wheels spin slowly, the seals may have failed. Replace the entire wheel kit rather than attempting to service individual bearings.
Q: What is the maximum load capacity with GWK-MPB040EXL-LW wheels installed?
A: GWK-MPB040EXL-LW wheels are rated for the full 4000-pound load capacity of the Yale MPB 040 E jack. The 97A durometer polyurethane compound and sealed roller bearings are engineered for extended service life under rated load. Exceeding the jack nameplate capacity will void the warranty and cause premature wheel failure.
