LOCKING WHEEL NUTS

[neil0205]

I`ve just fitted a set of 18" spiders on my 96 cerb.Trouble is they look that good I bet some b**tard will want them.I`ve looked on threads and some say it`s a jeep cherokee thread others say it`s 12.5mm metric thread.I thought the 96 cerb has ford seirra running gear to the front.So will standard ford locking nuts do?

Nope Jeep Hubs.

McGaurd locking nuts for the Jeep Cherokee is what you need.

Nightmare to get them off.

Got my new ones from a Jeep dealership last year. Cost about £15 IIRC

I bought mine in a TVR dealer.
The interesting thing was that a TVR dealer was less than 25% of the cost of a Jeep dealer for the (non locking) nuts.

I have the Jeep supplied ones on mine at the mo. Not great as they are the 3 pin type which a) have a habit of snapping off and b) the bloody things have gone rusty already!

Cheap crap. :lol:

Which is why I needed a new set

I'd like to get some locking wheel nuts for my Cerb - had a look on the Demon Tweeks site. They list 37 different types!!
(www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/resources/pdfs/MCGARD_WHEEL_NUTS.pdf).

Does anyone know which of these are the correct ones?

Thanks.

Anyone tried Speedshack? www.speedshack.co.uk/Wheelnuts.htm

I alsways found them very helpful for my previous cars. I've not tried them for TVR though.
