Does anyone have pictures of the oem beadlick capable wheels converted to beadlocks on a truck?

Yup, I sure do. They are gorgeous:

Nice! Thanks, it's hard to find any pictures of them on a truck.

I’ve had the rings sitting in my garage for a while now. Did either of you pop the bead and flip the tire over yourself? If so, how hard was it?

I had the rim fully removed from the tire, then I took dawn/water and lubed the bead of the tire, then forced the rim into the tire by hand. I used this Beadlock Install for reference.

From there, the install is straightforward. Just use anti-seize on all beadlock bolts and torque all bolts to 3 different specs in a star pattern. SwarfWorks has the best video on this:

My bolts have not loosened at all and I have towed cross country, off-road weekly, and so on. Ford did a phenomenal job engineering the beadlock rings and rims. They look killer and I would highly recommend them. I will buy the new Ford Performance Beadlock rings for my Gen 3 once it arrives.

**** since you cannot upload YouTube videos anymore—thanks moderators—use those screenshots to look up the videos on YouTube.

No problem! Let me know if you need anything else. SwarfWorks said he didn’t have to rebalance his tires, but mine were out of balance once I got everything installed, so I had mine rebalanced.

I used a ratchet strap and pro eagle jack to pop the bead. Lubed it up and used 2 pry bars to work the bead over the wheel. Lube is key!

Lube is always key
