Still a bit of life left in this thread, so I'll weigh in with a few
thoughts and a question. When swapping tires on the deuce, I clean the rust
off the lug nuts and studs with a wire wheel and put Nevr-seez on 'em. Never
any problem taking them off afterward with the lug wrench and 5' bar and
moderate effort. Any reason the Nevr-seez would be a bad idea?? All this
talk about big guns and big air (big $$!) has me wondrin'- Am I doing
something wrong, or do I lead a charmed life?
