Well folks, the experience of having the lug nuts strip completely off my
car the other day led me to a new project and hence, another chapter in my
growing website.
Obviously, I had to replace the lug bolts (aka wheel studs). I've
documented the process for other Spitfire owners that find themselves with a
stripped lug bolt someday.
Details can be found at http://www.ohms.com/spitfire/hard_lesson.shtml#studs
Hope someone else benefits from my mistakes.
Best wishes,
Jeff in San Diego
