DIY Beadlock tech（DIY 防脱轮毂技术）
This seems to come up often enough that I thought I'd document how I did mine. The pictures I have are all of my set of 16s, but it is the same process whether you are building 15s, 16s, 16.5s, or 17s. I used 16x7 steel wheels. The beadlocks add about an inch or so to the width of the wheel, so I ended up with 16x8 beadlock wheels.
我觉得这个很常见到，我想要把怎么做的整理成资料，我的这些图片都是16英寸的轮毂，但是无论是15、16、16.5还是17英寸的都是相同的加工程序。我用的是16x7的钢圈轮毂。加上防脱圈大约是1英寸，所以最后加上防脱圈以后变成16x8的轮毂。
The first thing you need to do is determine which side of your wheels you need to put the beadlock rings on.This may sound stupid, but let me explain. On the inside of the wheels is a "dished out" area that is used to allow the tire enough room to stretch over the bead when mounting. The dished out area is positioned to one side on the wheel. It is nearly always off-set to the outside facing surface of the wheel. However, on wheels with extremely little backspacing (2" or less) the wheel may be reversed and the dished out area may be towards the inside surface of the wheel. The beadlock rings have to go on the side closest to the dished out area of the wheel. If you put them on the other side you will not be able to get a tire onto the wheel. This means that on some wheels the beadlock will be on the inside of the wheel, by the brakes. If this is not your desired result you may not have wheels that are suitable for making into beadlocks.
首先你需要知道用轮毂的那一边去加工防脱圈，这个听起来也许有点二，但是让我来给你解释。在轮毂的内侧有一个内凹进去的区域（有点像盘子边的形状），这是让安装轮胎时有足够的地方抻拉的住胎圈上，盘子边形状在轮毂的一边，大多是的轮毂从外边看都是向内凹进去的。不管怎么说，在轮毂上都会有这样很小的余量（0.2英寸或者更小），盘子边的区域可能接近轮毂的内表面。防脱环需要安装轮毂在最接近盘子边上翘的位置上。不要把防脱圈安装在另外一边，那你就没法把轮胎套进轮毂了，就是说不要把防脱环装在轮毂内侧（靠近刹车的一侧），如果那样你就没有合适的轮毂加工防脱圈了（轮毂就废了），你一定不期待这样的结果。
The next step is to take a grinder or wire wheel and clean all the paint, rust, and grime off the lip of the wheel that you will be welding to. This picture shows the area that needs to be cleaned, and it also shows the offset "dished out" area that I talked about earlier.
接下来你要用手砂轮或者线刷轮把轮毂上油漆、铁锈和污垢清理干净，清理轮毂上的唇边，方便你接下来焊接。这张图上展示的区域是需要清理的，还可以看见刚才我说的向内凹进去的盘子边。
Once you've got the lip all cleaned up go grab one of your beadlock rings. Take a look at the edges of the ring. The edges on one side will be sharp and square. The edges on the other side will be slightly smoother and rounder. You want the shoother edges to be in contact with the tires, so lay the side with the sharp edges down on your wheel. Feel all the way around the ring and move it until it looks and feels like it is perfectly centered on the wheel. You also want to rotate the ring so that the valve stem of the wheel is in the middle of two bolt holes. You don't want to have one of your beadlock bolts interfering with your valve stem. Here's a picture of what you should have at this point.
当你把唇边处理完，拿过来防脱环比一比，看看防脱环的边缘，一边锋利而且平整，另一边有一些平滑圆润。如果你想刨齐让它跟轮胎更贴合，那么就把锋利的面朝下放在轮毂上，凭感觉移动防脱环直到感觉它确实在中心位置上了，同样需要转动防脱环，让气门嘴在防脱环的两个螺丝孔的正中间，因为如果你不这样的话，当你装上螺丝后你会发现气门嘴和螺丝顶在一起了。你应该安装这张图片上去做。
Now that the ring is positioned where you want it, go ahead and tack-weld it into place in about four spots around the wheel.
现在防脱环在正确的位置上，现在去做四个焊点固定下这个位置。
Now find a comfortable spot to sit, and start welding. This weld needs to be pretty close to air-tight, so a quality weld is important. Most of the leaks come from where the welds start and stop, so two welds overlap. I try to make as few welding passes as possible. I can usually weld all the way around the perimeter of the wheel in four or five different sections. Some people say you should weld in many smaller sections to avoid heating up the wheel too much and warping it. That is good advice on many other projects, but I don't think there is any way you are going to warp your wheel, so to minimize the possibility of leaks I weld in as few different sections as possible.
现在找一个舒服的位置坐下，开始焊接。这个焊接需要保证气密性，所以高质量的焊接很重要。大多是的漏气现象都是从焊接的起始点和终点产生的，所以要焊两圈。我试着让焊层数越少越好，我可以在四五个焊点间一次焊好圆周部分，有些人说应该焊接应该分成等长的几段，可以比避免要轮毂烧的过热而弯曲。在做其他的活儿时这是一个很好的建议，但是我觉得在这里不会由于过热产生让你的轮毂弯曲，所以为了减少漏气的可能性，我还是尽可能减少分区焊接的次数。
