getting ready for a 2,100 mi road trip and decided to clean out the K&N and check the tires, oil ect. out of the 20 lug nuts total I found 7 that were loose enough to turn with my hand also found my spare tire only had 15psi of air in it, so I need to fill that up also. Just giving G35driver a friendly reminder to check your nuts and the spare tire...

 

Mine are fine, a little hairy, but fine none the less.

Admit it, you titled this thread to see just how crass we would get. Alright boys, give it your best shot!!

Brandon, I know you've got something good for us.

 

who last did service on your tires? They shouldnt backout on your as long as they are torqued equally 80lbs all around.

 

Still attached, still working, smooth as a baby's bottom. In the words of Dr. Evil, "There really is nothing like a shorn *******... it's breathtaking- I highly suggest you try it." j/k, hairy.

I can't believe you had 7 lugs that were loose. I've never had a lugnut work loose after it had been torqued down correctly. But good advice, especially on the spare tire pressure.

 

Nissan in ND were the last people to touch my nuts (lug nuts that is) when they mounted my new tires. I then drove from ND to CA with no problems and I have been all over cali since then, LA, Santa Barbra, Chowchilla, Turlock, San louis obisbo, and back to LA. I figured since I had some free time to inspect the car like I mentioned earlier and found the loose lugs, They are cranked down now... that is for sure... But I still need to inflate the spare...

 

Anytime my car is serviced, first thing i do when i get home is retorque the wheels with my torque wrench.

80 ft-lbs in a star pattern...recheck 50 miles (highway) later.

 

(cough, cough)

Sage advice. I check the lugnut torque any time someone else removes a wheel. You don't want overtorqued lugnuts either, can cause rotor warpage.

 

Do you still live in ND?

 

Unfortunately yes I still live in ND, just in CA to get some time out of ND and away from school. Leaving tonight to drive back.... Training starts back Monday...

 

I noticed that my nuts were loose too, but I think it's because I don't have AC at work. Doesn't seem to be a problem in the winter though.

 

told the missus that i read online that a few guys have had trouble with their nuts. Asked if she could check mine. no luck. maybe next time.

 

That can't be right. Married people have sex every night.

 

Sorry man, sux to be you. J/K of course.


And you my friend have been watching way too much ****. I thought we've talked about the difference between fantasy and reality.

 

That can't be right either. There's no such thing as too much pr0n.
