I have the same problem with the wheel nuts. They require checking almost every run. Also all the screw in hinge pins and screws holding the tie rods like to undo themselves too.

I always locktite wheel nuts. The nylon is useless after a couple wheel removals, and the constant wheel spin likes to throw them off anyway.

I haven't lost a wheel nut in god knows when (other than the ones I've dropped in the dirt...)

I've thought about painting the nuts like bright pink or something.. so at least I might have a chance of finding them in the dirt

Arct1k - Looking for 2 rear rims, but thanks for the offer anyways, I appreciate it.

Its not a big deal at all really, I just needed to vent it out a little, and it helped =)

Mine came a light pink color, but they are firmly attached, so I am not worried about losing them...
