Wheel removal..Keystone,Glenn ,Lonnie.............

[Crossthread]

With all the stringent rules about torqueing a wheel using the three step torque method, what is the proper procedure on removing a wheel /tire to change a flat,rotate the tires,bearing maintenance ect.???Nothing in the books about it that I can find.Any help is appreciated.(Ozz, have you modified your wheels yet????) Bill

[Ozz]

No Bill, they go round and round with no complaints, I thnk I will leave them alone. I will eyeball the Mission tires a little better now, knock on wood, they seem super....so far.
Bill, I think in the removal of the wheels, it doesn't matter, but maybe a guy should go opposite just for kicks, when loosening the lug nuts.

lol. your too funny Ozz, I nearly choked on my water when I read that.

xthread, as far as I know, Ozz is right, take'em off any way you want to.

I agree, any lug pattern that gets them off the axle.

If you are considering rotating the trailer tires I would suggest the right side to the left side and vice versa. Be sure to get them balanced while you have them off the trailer.

WEll, the way Ozz modifies everthing, I thought he may have been able to re-invent the wheel
Thanks guys for the info. A wealth of information for everyone in this forum. Bill

Well I must admit that when I had a flat on my right rear of the Monty I found it useful to place a bottle jack under the axle before I took the wheel off. Darn nail anyway. Course others may argue the point of how you get the wheel off the ground.
