Morning all,
I am sure this has been discussed before but I am new to this forum and not very tech savvy so apologies if is been repeated.
Has anyone had issues removing WSL wheel nuts. All mine have just been replaced while the van was in service as they said they were all rusted and without an airgun they would not have come off. I have now got the van home and need to replace the tyre, however these nuts just will not move, worst of all the socket is really ill fitting and does not even seat properly on the head of the bolt. I am aware there is only one way it will go on and have tried it in all position. Also I have read several articles as to why Bailey have gone to these new bolts and that's all fine, but was there really a problem to solve? There are thousands of caravans going up and down the country perfectly safely without fancy WSL friction bolts. And even if there is a need for these bolts why have this ridiculous head on the bolt, its not exactly an anti theft bolt when the socket is so readily available.
