Information
The spare tire knobs have a weak point just under the screw head. When turned to tightly or even constantly removing the cover, they tend to tear in half. Here is a tutorial to help "prevent" or "prolong" the life of an unbroken knob or repair a borken one.
Tools Needed
- Needle Nose Pliers
- Dremel or Rotory Tool
- Dremel 430: 1/4" Drum Sander
- Dremel 438: 1/4" 120 Grit Sanding Band
- Metal Clay (looking for brand/description)
