    I clean the hubs, and wheel bores (contact surfaces), at every rotation and wheel swap, summer to winter. I apply fluid film wool wax or surface shield to both surfaces, and wipe excess with a rag. usually just a pull or push, and the wheels are off. have to stop the michigan loctite some way. also, the "optimum" torque spec for the 3rd gen wheels is only 83 ft/lbs. you can round up to 85 but, there is no need to reef the lugs down to above 100 or more.

    As fate would have it, I've already had to have a second go at this. This time I got to do it with my pregnant wife watching, while the ball busting from this thread played through my head. The sob eventually broke free using y'all's suggestions. Thanks fellas
