Hi Guys, So I'e made an awesome discovery!

Habemt you always wanted to use BRT's with Substance wheels but didnt want to mod the wheels or trucks? Well now you can!

I found that it is as simple as putting the locknuts on backwards. SO simple, yet works perfect. You no longer haveto fuck up your $75 trucks!

Your welcome, Morrow <3

Does this work for all dual bearing wheels?

thats old new but thanks morrow for sharin to the people that didnt know

Thanks bro

I didn't even know there was a front and back to lock nuts

and actually, Mallory told me of this a while ago.
Just never tried it!

Oh haa damnit I wanted to be credited with finding it out!!!

And Ryan, just put the black part of the locknut on forwards so all you see is metal!

How are you sure this works though? Because when I put it on normally, the wheel comes off after a couple tricks, how is this different?

I'm not positive as to how it works, but I've been riding them for 2 days now and they are tight to the axel just like BRT edition wheels!

I think it works because the actual thing that makes the locknut work is so farr on the locknut that it doesnt reach when you put it on regurally with duals. So when you put it on backwards it has alot to do with direct "locknut" contact and the rounded nut shape that fits inside the wheel better!

Take your wheel off your hangar, put the locknuton ALLthe way, and it works!

You still fuck up your $75 trucks lol , the threads on both your axles and your nuts that is.

The reason it is holding in is bc you forced the nuts threads to go in the wrong way on in your axles.

That way has been known though lol he, , just not really the smartest thing to do if you understand how threads work.

u can even make locknuts with reg nut with paint just put paint in the hole let dry

But how is a locknut any different than a texh deck nut in a sense that if there was no black indicating the front, there would be no front or back?!

But if this is the case, then explain tech deck nuts?

Right, like there is no front or back!

Ifthat was true all my tech deck nuts would be stripped!

They way lock nuts are designed is to have only one direct thread to the axle which is from the back. When you put them on backwards you are basically re-threading the plastic inside to form the thread on the axle, that's why it makes a tight fit that won't move.

I have been doing this for a while. It give's a quicker look becuse the blue lock plastic catch on the thread elier
