maybe try UTEC

An impact pushing 180psi wouldn't loosen my lug nuts......cheater pipe about 2ft long on 1/2in ratchet worked tho......if I would've had a flat on the side of the road, I'd been screwed........what do y'all put on yours to keep them from rusting to the studs? Was thinking anti-seize wouldn't be enough.......
Maybe coat in grease??

Nothing will stop saltwater corrosion bro....use anti-seize and loosen and tighten them once or twice a year.

Nickel or copper anti-sieze will work better than anything else, I think. I've seen it in action in chem plants and refineries around the country in a variety of elements and chemical exposure. The stuff works!

That's correct......it's called anti seize for a reason.....we used it in some HIGH corrosive units & it works....i use it on my battery connections.....take studs off never seize & put back on.
Little tip also.....for those of you that have cable steering put never seize on the steering rod at the motor ;)

Good tip...lol Grease is also not the best idea,it hardens and causes trouble. Best just to use wd-40 or pb blaster.
|
MAKE SURE!!! That if you use anti seize that you check your lug nuts every trip before you take off and at any stops. Vibration can loosen the nuts even if you thought they were tight!
Being passed by a trailer tire at 50 mph is not a good feeling.

I didn't get the standard lugnuts.......these cover the entire stud.......they're about 1 1/2in long. Should keep the stud from rusting......gonna try em dry for awhile, if they start sticking ill try something else
