Ok, so tonight, the wheel nut came off my brt's twice while i was in sesh (tryin to film for the stylathon lol) so I was like "there has got to be somethin better than a drip of glue on the ends". So i tried putting a drop in the nut before I put it on, and it adhered too fast...couldnt even get more than 2 threads on lol. So i'm thinkin about it while i was putting the singles back on so I could film, and it hit me...why not use thread locker (or locktite as some people know it by)! So I dug around and found my bottle of blue thread locker (dont use red as it it damn near a permanent fix), put the nut in the tool and put a descent drip on the inside threads of the nut, and screwed it on...repeated 3 times, grabbed a bite to eat, and voila they are on there nice and tight! the cool thing about it is you can take em off and change wheels and only have to reapply the thread locker after about 3 or 4 times of removing them...dont know why I hadnt thought of thread locker before...just thought I would share with all you fellow +BLACKRIVER-TRUCKS+ owners out there

I dont have brr trucks but my wheels still fall off, my friend used this on his skateboard and it sounds like a good idea

yeah i dont know y i just thought of this...and i havent seen it mentioned anywhere else...works like a freakin champ...

TMG = inventor of the day

I used the red kind when I had my first set of brts but I lost 2nuts cause it sealed to quick

sounds like a really good idea, im just way too lazy

thats not an invention. i saw it on that old marshmellowz site. anybody have the link? i looked around and couldnt find it

whats threadlocker?........we have locktite here, but i thought it was just superglue?....i mean i have some here, locktite superglue?....whats their a different one?

yeah. I dn't know what it is either.
but if you have to apply it that much hows it better than superglue?

loctite is the same as thread locker

yeah locktite is just a brand/company that makes thread locker and super glue. Thread locker is different than superglue, as it doesnt adhere immediately, it holds better, and its removable. Kinda hard to explain lol...You also dont have to reapply everytime after you take the nut off. And grant, your not using anymore thread locker/locktite than you do superglue just a little drop on the threads of the nut then put it on vs. putting on the nut then putting a drip of superglue on the end of the axle...

ahhh right i know what you mean now tmg.....i have some stuff similar called 'uhu all purpose adhesive'...its pretty good, and drys kind of rubbery, and holds strong.....it takes about half hour or so to dry though, so its good if you dont mind waiting

i got some of that stoof blosom

in the yellow box right?....haha had to be....you love anything yellow

na i got 'bostik all purpose' :L
same thing really haha, dries rubbery
its good for gluing nuts, it kinda grips to the axel as well as sticks

Isn't it blue that is used to hold together PVC pipe?in irrigation?

na that pvc cement...pvc cement comes in a variety of colors...and the different colors are different strengths of the glue...locktite comes in green, blue, and red...blue is the best for this imo...

yeah locktite is more for like rc cars and little hobby things

nice idea

Lol i have been doing that works real good

I wanna try it!

go by autozone or walmart and get ya a little bottle of blue locktite then! But like blosom said the downside to it is you have to wait longer for it to dry than you do superglue...but I'll wait another 20 min to not have to keep glueing these damn things on lol...AND it looks better cause there isnt a big glob of superglue chillin on ur nut...gotta have having superglue on your nut
