Sell your bits!
NOTE: This is for members and their private sales/wants.
There are rules that suppliers have to follow (and many of you do follow the rules). However there have been a number of instances recently where "suppliers" have broken the rules.
Suppliers/Dealers or anyone selling with a commercial view in mind CANNOT post here unless responding to a specific request of a member in a "wanted" post.
Suppliers include people "breaking for spares" on a regular basis, when purchasing spares members should ask a supplier what they contribute to the running of the forum

Got me thinking back to many years ago when the Manager at the company I worked for, returned from holiday to find that the 5 wheels on his office chair had been removed & the chair left on 5 bricks.

Don't have locking nuts on my Jimny. It feels like every vehicle these days has alloy wheels, so suspect you need security for steel wheels these days :laugh:

Looks like Chris Baxter may have found the solution - I had a reply from the fellow on eBay who sounded positively optimistic
I chanced £20 and will know in a few days...
Yep, lilke your places around Leeds and Bradford, there are places in the West Midlands that I wouldnt drive through at less than 30mph for fear of someone nicking the wheels!

Chis Baxter, Sir
A huge "THANK YOU" to you for sending me that link.
Andrew Ghey immediately identified and sent me the correct replacement adapter for £20 saving me a lot of stress, time, and hassle. Luckily my tyres stayed inflated in the interim!
For anyone else that might find themselves in a similar predicament in the future and finds this thread, Andrew is contactable directly at andrewghey@aol.com - just send him a clear photo of the locking-nut. He's friendly and communicative and will get a replacement to you very quickly.
I can't thank him (or Chris Baxter) enough.
I am however still on the lookout for 4 x standard Jimny alloy wheel-nuts... so anyone breaking a Jimny I will be at the October meet-up and could pick them up then.

Glad to hear Andrew delivered for you Max.
I'm no off-roader but old habits die hard, I always keep a spare key tool (one in the car, one in the shed) and a set of standard nuts for punture likely outings. I bought a set of 5 Febi 46694 nuts for £25 but if I was buying again I'd chase down a set of second hand ones.
