Is this true if you leave the shifter in "4"? (as opposed to leaving it in "D" and relying on the transmission logic to keep in 4th most of the time)

Oh for sure. Acceleration would be too slow otherwise.

 

The problem is in 4th it still goes into the torque converter as if it would shift to 5th. There’s no lockout or program to fix it.

 

You need the cone style that comes with aftermarket rims. It can fit through the small opening and actually tighten it.

Something like this (these aren’t for our truck but this is how they look)

These are what I bought for mine after the no name lugs broke in half and had to drill the stud out. Buy the good ones!

I will get me what @Ttaco15 posted and actually be able to put the truck down on the tires next time.

Even with the correct conical lugnuts, it doesn't look like you'll have enough threads to engage. Better get ET lugnuts to be safe:

 

Yea that is what I was worried about. So glad you guys know wtf I should be getting

 

Got them mounted on the rack today. Its almost done. Few more mounting points, then awning brackets/holder. Then finish welding, tacked everything until im happy with it

 

Haha, I like that "security" lock.

 

It will keep the honest people from taking them, but wouldn’t take much to break the luggage lock yes. More to keep the nut from ever backing off while driving.

But considering those cost more than the rack, figured I’d try to keep them safe

 

why not go with a wing nut since you will have something from keeping it from backing out.

 

Because I didn’t even think of that. Thank you

 

Still not a fan... they look dead.

But that's my opiniumium...

Rock your wheels, Eugene!
