I'm doing suspension and brake work this winter. After mounting and dismounting the wheels several times I finally figured out something most of you have probably known forever.
I went to ACE and bought two bolts that match the thread of the lug bolts and cut the heads off. I've always been a late bloomer... Next I'll figure out how to post a photo in the correct orientation (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)  |

Somebody makes knurled studs to do that. but your idea is cheaper, and you could just cut a slot with a hacksaw to make it easier to unthread them if they bind up.
Good idea. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif) |
