OPTIONAL STEP
- SINCE WE PROVIDE LOCKING LUG NUTS, YOU DO NOT
NEED TO INSTALL THE LOCK ROD UNLESS YOU WANT THE EXTRA
PROTECTION. LEAVING IT UNINSTALLED PROVIDES A CLEAN LOOK IF YOU
HAVE COOL CENTER CAPS FOR YOUR WHEELS. IT CAN ACCEPT VARIOUS
LOCKS, BUT OUR FAVORITE IS A TRADITIONAL HITCH LOCK.
TO INSTALL
- INSERT INTO THE WHEEL BRACKET AS SHOWN BELOW AND
FASTEN USING THE (2)
3/8-16 X 1 HEX HEAD SCREW
, AND (2)
3/8 SCREW
FLAT WASHER
. THE DEPTH IS ADJUSTABLE TO SUIT YOUR SPECIFIC WHEEL
SETUP. ENSURE IT STICKS OUT ENOUGH FOR THE LOCK TO HAVE
CLEARANCE WITH YOUR WHEEL INSTALLED.
