Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does XL mean in the GWK-WP2300XL-LW part number and how is it different from the standard kit?
A: XL in this context refers to extended or enhanced durometer specification. The GWK-WP2300XL-LW wheels are 97A polyurethane hardness, compared to lower durometer alternatives. This makes the wheels more resistant to cuts, flats, and wear, extending service life. The XL designation does not indicate larger physical dimensions; dimensions remain consistent with Crown WP2300 specification.
Q: What bearing construction is specified for the GWK-WP2300XL-LW and is there any maintenance requirement?
A: The kit uses rubber-sealed ball bearings per BS 6006 2RS standard. The BS 6006 2RS rating indicates British Standard compliance with rubber seals on both sides. These bearings are pre-lubricated and sealed; no maintenance, cleaning, or re-greasing is required or recommended. Inspect monthly during jack maintenance by listening for grinding noise or observing wheel rotation; replace the wheel assembly if bearing function is compromised.
Q: Is there an installation type designation for the GWK-WP2300XL-LW, and does it require any special tools?
A: The kit is classified as direct replacement. No special tools beyond standard socket sets and wrenches are required. Do not use impact drivers on bearing seals or retaining fasteners. Hand tools only. Installation time is approximately 30 to 45 minutes for both wheels. Ensure the jack is lowered and secured on a level surface before beginning work. Wear safety gloves and glasses.
Q: Does the GWK-WP2300XL-LW meet the OEM Crown part number GWK-WP2300XL-LW specification?
A: The OEM part number listed is GWK-WP2300XL-LW, which matches the product SKU exactly. This suggests the kit may be OEM Crown-sourced or OEM-equivalent. Cross-verify by confirming the kit contents match the part number on your jack documentation or original purchase invoice. If you need absolute OEM authenticity, contact Crown directly with your jack serial number.
Q: What is the load-bearing capacity of the GWK-WP2300XL-LW wheels and am I limited by the wheel or the jack?
A: The wheels themselves are rated for the full Crown WP2300 Series capacity, which is typically 5,500 pounds. Load capacity is limited by the jack, not the wheel assembly. The 97A polyurethane and sealed bearings are engineered to support repeated full-load cycles throughout their service life. Do not exceed the jack manufacturer nameplate rating under any circumstances.
