[TPR] GERRY’s TRAILER NUTS

[Asa Jay Laughton]

I have my wife check my nuts, because if she can't get them off, they're
too tight.

And don't fall for the "yea we use a torque wrench" line at the auto
store either.  Many times, if you watch, they rattle-wrench them on ,
then follow with a torque wrench that clicks -immediately- because
yup.... they're already too damn tight.  I take it home, and if I can't
remove them with the standard lug wrench that come with the car, they go
back for them to do over.  I then torque them myself.

Gerry's not carrying that award from Vegas with him is he?  That could
be bad ju-ju right there. :)
