Got my new wheels today, thanks Mike.. About pissed my pants with excitment.
I get home take off the front existing wheel, and I can't get the friggin studs out to save my life. One came right out, front left, but the other three are in there good. I am guessing the PO, used enugh thread lock to choke a mule.. Anyone have any great wisdom.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

Brian,
Probably been covered on the CO gay cavalero site but... you may want to put that lug bolt back in, torque it and then try the others. (speaking of which... let's see if Brant can weigh in here. Let's see if he'll tell the story about counting with his toes. Braaaaaant ohh Branty-Pooh!) |

HAHAH.... so that makes greg a car whore? (qty 3 now?) lol Hmm... see if they have a college math class I tried to do it years ago, but my feet would get cold when I tried to use my toe's I think its a tad bit over 3 though.. especially if you count the car that he bought for his father and is hiding in CA. |

heat is your friend to remove a LocTite'd assembly.
you don't need anything extreame like an oxy-acet setup..just a portable MAPP gas or cheaper propane rig will work.. hurry up, I wanna see some pics...start a new thread when you get them on |
