Jackman Aluminum Spoke Wheels - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Ptjsk · 01-28-2021, 02:30 AM

I came upon a set of 4 Jackman aluminum spoke wheels. They are 15" x 10" in size. I have periodically looked for these, but could never find a set. It was just by chance that I came across these.

I had my Dad go pick them up, so I haven't seen them in person yet. The pictures showed them to be in good shape, but need a good cleaning.

Does anybody have these wheels they can post a picture of?

Any cleaning/polishing methods that you can tell me about?

I plan to pick them up tomorrow, so I'll post pictures then.

Thanks,

Pat

Look for the Jackman ( J ) logo stamped on them , There were a lot of copycats back in the day . They are thick in the center and may require longer lugs . I've seen them sell in the $1.600.00 to $1,800.00 range on some of the 4x4/ baja web sites But that was a while back . Here's a thread on identifying them , There's lots of info out there . If they are real Jackman's They may be worth some $$$ . I have a set of what I think are 6 lug Jackman's . I'll have to take a better look at them today .

Well, unfortunately they're not jackman's. It looks like they're the one's that others have referenced with a symbol similar to a peace sign.

None the less, they should clean up pretty well!

I think they'll look great...

I think they're going to clean up real good!

This is just after the first scrubbing!
