Subsequent Installation of Wheel-Bolt Lock

Subsequent Installation of Wheel-Bolt Lock






Loosen wheel bolts.
Lift car until wheel can be turned.
Loosen wheel bolts enough for it to be easy to move wheel on wheelhub.
Turn wheel so that valve is face down.
Remove upper wheel bolt and insert wheel-bolt lock.





Possible play in wheel center and wheel weight could cause imbalance.
This imbalance is reduced to a minimum by installing the somewhat heavier wheel-bolt lock in the top wheel-bolt position.
Tighten wheel bolts crosswise and by hand in this position (wheel-bolt lock at top, valve at bottom).
Lower car and tighten wheel bolts crosswise.
Wheel Bolts 120 +/- 10 Nm
Should a customer complain about wheel imbalance after installation of wheel-bolt lock, wheels will have to be finish-balanced.
