Thought I would start on the front of the parts car. Driver
side tire came off no problem, passenger side just hangs there. I can't get it off and yes the lug bolts are out and the tire is off the ground. This is the 74 LE that has sat for 18yrs. Any thoughts? - Garold |

Why is it always the passenger's side wheel that sticks???
Note--"Fake Fuchs" wheels seem to do this more often than the Real Thing. GABH, Get A Bigger Hammer. If all else fails, put the lug bolts back in just over finger tight. Drive a little bit--just a little. You should start to hear strange noises from the front of the car in a bit. That's the wheel coming loose. Naturally, you must be very very very very careful... Having the wheel fall off while you're driving would not make you happy. --DD |
