I think the pixies have been in my garage and my centre wheel spanner is no where to be seen, so have any of you guys got a spare one I could have in exchange for some beer tokens?

Cheers

Spare !! Spare !! You'll be lucky - those things are rarer than a rare thing that's very rare.

I got mine of ebay - that might be worth a try. Just make sure you get the right size, as there are two ( well, I know there is at least one wrong size as I bought a wrong one to start with ).

Had a look on the bay but the only ones are the wrong size. Was hoping someone on here has a spare.

Hope this helps.

Chris Neil had to cut a couple of my nuts off late last year !! A PHer on here kindly posted me a couple he no longer needed to replace them. So now I keep them clean and greased.

One thing I've done is remove the anodising on them so they are raw ally now. They look much better, i.e. less Saxo.

Price dependant mate. Anything that is more robust than the one I have will do as it bends under the strain of trying to remove the nuts every time. Awful bit of kit.

Thanks mate, I can get them off OK at home with grips and rubber pads, it would make it a bit easier with a spanner though. Also I want a spanner to carry around in the car. See you soon, maybe the Awards do in Feb?

I got a metal 60mm box spanner off Amazon for about £23 and to remove one of the nuts I needed a 1m tommy bar, would no doubt have written off a plastic one.
