| Post subject: | Wheel problem |
I have started refurbishing my 10" rims and have noticed the washer inserts have been removed whilst sandblasting  This probably wouldn't have been an issue if I had noticed at the time however I didn't and now I am stuck with one wheel missing the inserts........... Now for the stupid question, are they available and if so anyone know where I can get them from? CJ Missing the inserts  With the inserts

You can get stepped wheel nuts that have their own washers. Try a good wheel supplier or net. |

I recently bought some new Contessa wheel nuts off of Frank Tonito - e-mail: [email protected] 02 4773 3022 100 Eaton Road, Luddenham NSW 2745 These nuts have the washers on them - if you just want the washers I'm sure he'd sell you the washers, he's a top guy and has been manufacturing wheel nuts for 50+ years. |

I had a wheel missing 4, so I machined some up. Sorry I don't have the dimensions now, but they are easy to make- anybody with a lathe could make them. Material is just mild steel, I used some 1020 bar. |
