Removing a locking bolt without the locking nut.
For when you've misplaced your locking nut.
Published by Bushboy

Introduction
This guide is more specifically for the standard locking bolts used on Cinquecentos and Seicentos. This method may work for other types of locking bolts but you may need to use a bigger/smaller socket depending on the design of the locking bolt.

Tools needed -
  • 1x strong 18mm 12 sided socket
  • 1x socket wrench/breaker bar
  • 1x hammer
Quite a simple task which is almost as easy as removing a normal bolt. Takes no longer than 3 minutes per bolt and will leave you with a still usable socket
