As far as I am concerned they don't really need a screwdriver slot as you will only be putting them on finger tight, one a little shorter seems like a good idea Geoff |

Don't oil the threads unless you don't mind losing a wheel. |

Just a thought, will these fit through the earlier smaller wheel nut holes?? and I think I'd only use one, so I'll go half's with David Pete

I've put oil on wheel stud threads for over 40 years and never had a wheel come of yet and don't anticipate it happening to be honest.

He has the earlier car, so unless he's put on the later wheels and made with those in mind, we should be good to go......

I think I'd take a set. Depending on cost.

Well, I might have cocked up when machining the prototype, and picked up the wrong bottle, that would mean that that I've been cooling the work piece with shandy and swigging WD40 Yesterday I couldn't spell Engineer... Today I are one!

That looks great, I think one would work well enough. Love the T-bar idea, better than the slot IMHO. Please put me on the list for one. I just wish I had my lathe up and running (no space to do that here) otherwise I could do it myself .
