Just to clarify a little, the wheel bolts are indeed subjected to tensional forces as that is what holds then onto the hubs, but the more critical forces will be the shear forces that the wheel rims will put on the bolts as the wheels will be trying to "shear" through the bolts when the wheels are spinning.
And so.......
Now you wouldn't be a miserable mot tester and fail something as miniscule as that would you Tony!!!!
I too suffer from something winding down my leg.
Just a little bit!Modest or what?
Tony.
Is it your imagination by chance or wishful thinking?? JIMI too suffer from something winding down my leg.
A bit of both maybe Jim.
And don't forget the 10x salary!! lolA bit of both maybe Jim.
YOU'LL certainly never know
That is unless these wheels fall off and you get the wife !
Mine are going on Sunday morning.
I had to replace spring on my wife's Fiesta last year. She drove to work ok, parked up and when she came out the car made horrible noise so called me. when I got there the car was down one side and the end of the spring was rubbing on the front tyre. The springs are bigger than the support cup and the spring had dropped down the strut. lucky she wasn't driving.
You'd have to pry that out of her cold dead hands I think.
I've only fitted one so far as once I discovered the broken spring I obviously had to deal with that, so at the moment I have put one new lowering spring and shock on along with one spacer. Oh, and 5 zinc coated bolts
