This might be in the wrong section but... I forgot to put washers on my wheels, can only find two washers, and now my trucks won't unscrew Help!

What you mean cause your supposed to pu the washer befor the wheels on the axle unless you have tick washer.If you have a small plier you could unscrew it with that =.Hope it helps

ive never had any problems with out washers.

Neither have I, is it the axle bolt that won't move?
I could be wrong but I doubt that it's the washers

I can screw my blackriver tool in the wheel all day and nothing happens, except that the wheel turns. ill try and find mini pliers though.
and should I just ignore the problem and leave it washerless?

Hump de bump... sorry for double posting, but please tell me if its ok to not use washers, i rlly wanna get back to fbing.

I think you'll be fine, just fingerboard already, your trucks aren't going to explode haha.

Mk thanks!

what kind of trucks do you have? If they're BRR's, the axle might be spinning. You just need to take another tool and put it on the other nut if that's happening.

If they're TD/China trucks, your best bet is to either just use them as is or try to cut the axle off with a hacksaw. It's kind of a pain, but I've had to cut bearing screws like that before, it's not too bad as long as you're careful and don't cut into the wheel.

Wut? Axles on china wides will come out with a simple pair of plies, no need to cut them out. That's dangerous for your wheels : o Maybe with bearing screws you do but thats slightly different to stock axles

ive got BRTS, and I tried the thing with 2 tools and that didn't work, but anyways im not desperate to take the wheel off, so i'll hold off tell i get some washers.
Thanks guys!

I'm talking about getting axles out if the wheels are still on. There's no way to pull them out with pliers if the wheels won't come off

I have no clue how this happened to you! ha If you take the axle out put it in a vice grip then unscrew the screw.I gues...
