A question for those that do thier own maintenence. How would you prevent corrosion from occurring between forged aluminum wheels and iron hubs? This is prompted from me rotating the tires on my F-350 today. The rears were not bad at all but the front wheels required the use of a heavy rawhide mallet. The corrosion was very thick and dense between the bore of the wheel and the iron boss it fits on. I used 120grit emery cloth to remove most of the corrosion and rust (on the hub), polished the rest off with Mothers metal polish and then put a thin (very thin) coat of grease on the hub before remounting. Time will tell if all of this works or not. If you have encountered this problem and defeated it, share your secrets please.
