Well today i tried to change my wheels since theyre down to about 20-30mm. So I get every new wheel on except the last one. Because the nut wont fit around the end of the truck. So im like okay, I have 2 more old sets of wheels, maybe those nuts will fit, WRONG none of them do, so I cant skate today. What can I do until i get new hardware? Is there a way to put them on? Thanks in advance.

the problem is your axle is stripped. if you can't find a reflex tool from a friend to recoil the axle, just hammer the bolt on a little bit and then start using a tool and turn the bolt on all the way. this can take anywhere from 1 minute to 1 hour depending on how many times you've had to do this. for me, it takes me about a minute or so, but my first times doing this it felt like forever.

when that happens its a b**** to fix without that reflex tool thing. crapp i tried hammering it took me 2 hours tilli came to the point where i had to saw off the stripped end of the truck. then the bolt barely stayed on..it worked for a while but then id land something and my wheel would fly off and id die.

get a reflex tool now. its worth it.

Quoted for truth. the thing works like a charm when it comes to recoiling.

Yeah dude, Reflex is the shit. I haven't got around to buying one, but i've used them, life saver. =) Glad to hear it worked out with the axle bro. =)
