  | Removing Locking Nuts on Mags So I bought a new (used) trailer last year - and the interior is finally gutted and redone. Know to put up the garage organizer and I am done. Noticed that the wheels have those locking nuts on them - and the guy I bought trailer from has no idea where the adapter would be. Any ideas on how I could take them off and just replace with some regular ones? Or is Fountain Tire my next bet? Greg

   | Re: Removing Locking Nuts on Mags A tire shop will definatley be able to unlock your wheels for you. I know a few tire shops here that wouldn't even charge for doing it. I had it done to a car I bought and it took them all of about 15 seconds per wheel. Welding a nut on the lock might work too. Good Luck.

| Re: Removing Locking Nuts on Mags Just pound a socket on, but not too far, it can be a pain to get the socket off again but I just put the socket in a vise, and knock the lock nut out with a punch. I prefer an impact socket, they won't split. |
