[For Sale] Wheel fitting guide tools
I have some wheel fitting guide tools for sale similar in form and identical in function to those originally made by Miggit in this post:- http://www.disco3.co.uk/forum/topic121881.html
Basically, these hold the weight of the wheel and allow you to align it properly whilst you get the first nut on.

The way to use them is screw the longer pin on to the highest stud, and the shorter on on a lower one. It doesn't really matter, but I have found that if the longer rod is higher, it's slightly easier to use.

Next, hang the wheel on the long rod and rotate it around until the short rod lines up and push the wheel up to the hub.

It's then straightforward to fit three wheel nuts.

Remove the rods and fit the remaining wheel nuts, tighten them up and you're done.
