Wheels- Lug Nuts Bind On Studs

Article No. WHEEL - LUG NUTS BIND ON STUDS - VEHICLES
87-7-21 WITH 9/16" STUDS AND SINGLE REAR WHEELS


LIGHT TRUCK: 1983-87 E-250/350, F-250/350


ISSUE: Some lug nuts may be difficult to remove due to nut crimping. The lug nuts are designed to be free-running as opposed to a "prevailing" torque style. The freerunning nuts may have "crimped in" against the stud when torqued.

ACTION: To correct this, use new replacement nuts which will not "crimp in" when tightened to the recommended torque of 140 ft.lbs. (190 N-m).

CAUTION: Lug nuts should be torqued by hand, not with an impact wrench, and retorqued at intervals specified in the Owner Guide.
