They are like Mobile Home Lug Bolts. So I think you can find them through Dexter Axles or a Mobile Home Dealer or Mover. That is, IF you really damaged them. I have them on my Car hauler/construction trailer which has Mobile Home axles. |
So, lets see, that means "righty loosey, lefty tighty"? Guess a lot of us learned a lesson!

Hope you get your problem solved
Wow!! you would be in a pickle on the side of the road with this problem. Dunn tire put our F250 lug nuts on so tight Dh had to fill the tire with air the best he could and limp across town. They had to use an impact wrench to get the flat tire off. Super Man strength!!

didn't I see somewhere the lugs suppose to be 80 ft pounds? I will have my torque wrench with me. |
The sticker on my 15" white spoke wheels says 90 t0 120 fp, but different wheels probably require different torque values.

Being a little late to the party but have another suggestion to go along with everyone else's. I would chock the wheels of the trailer whether or not it is connected to the tow vehicle and break the lug nuts loose while sitting on the ground using a ratchet and a cheater bar over the handle. Of course you don't take them off yet but just to loosen them. Never had a problem that way!

Well, I got the other two off. the one we did everything to get loose were.. well let's say we had those very very tight, I broke my 1/2 inch to 3/8 torque reducer. .. ended up getting help from her sisters husband who had a corded impact it took them right off. got the tires changed out and put bk on the trailer and we just got home with it. I'm finished driving for the night. I will drive to the place it will get parked at in the morning it's only about 15 more miles. it's almost dark here
again thanks to all who helped |
Ya-hoo! glad to hear that.

Is the lesson here rightly tighty- lefty tighty sometimes?
Ooohhh my head is starting to hurt.:confused: |
