I haven't had a wheel nut come off yet, but did notice the left front loosened on me once.
But I know someone that's had their wheel nuts come off a few times, and he's been racing long enough to know how to tight a wheel nut properly. I'm changing my stock nuts for the nylon lock nuts. |

i believe you can put the wheel nuts on the opposite way, for a quick fix

Problem solved, just do away with the rango nuts and get some better quality serrated ones

Three months of racing the rango with the stock nuts and I had a wheel come off just once. It was my fault as I didn't tighten it up all the way. I just replaced them as the doobly doos on em are starting to wear down. I also have yet to break it since I replaced the original diff loop. I had the diff locked down all the way. Once again, my fault.

I have had issues with the wheel nuts , just put it down to ppm.
You should allways give your car a quick tighten check after every heat , now i do . Plus if you really want to just threadlock the nuts. |

In what way are your new ones different. Are the serrations sharper, or deeper somehow?

Serrated nuts do not work if your wheel is moving on the hex - in fact, they are the worst thing you can use. Perceived 'better quality' serrated nuts will only be WORSE since they lock against the wheel and come loose even easier.
If the wheel moves - it loosens the nut - if the nut loosens the wheel moves more. And so on.

And whilst he's spent £'s on new drive shafts, he still hasn't confirmed that he has infact spent £2.38 on the crush spacers.
