Wing nuts on a race car? That sounds like a oxi-moron

I've only had to do the vice grips thing a couple of times, sometimes on my street car, and only once on the race car. If you drill out the CV bolts, you can re-use them over and over again. Also make sure to clean out the threads and remove all of the CV grease, but if you safety wire them, they will NEVER losen up, unless you safety wire them wrong.

I spent 5 years in the Air Force, and safety wiring critical bolts from loosening, is one the the best practices that I learned. BTW, I was in the USAF from 1981 to 1986.

BTW, my current HP Wabbit was my street car, and I purchased it brand new in Oct 1981 and put almost 300k miles on it as a street car, before I turned it into a race car, and started storing it in a garage.
