Hello gang!

Freddy the Spit has developed a loose lugbolt on one of the front hubs -
should I be concerned? I is not causing a major problem at this point, I
just hold it in while I am putting the wheel back on. Seems like as long as
I don't over-torque the lug nut (hard to do with that six inch lug wrench!)
it should not be a problem. I am always careful of Gorilla mechanics with
air tools - I MAKE them use the Triumph wrench to put the nuts on. Anyway,
should I replace the offending bolt?
