Gorilla Lug Nuts

Hello everyone,

I just wanted to let everyone know that I found a terrific deal on EBay to purchase OEM replacement Gorilla lug nuts. The price is excellent compared to what these lug nuts normally sell for. These lug nuts are a great replacement over the horrible factory lug nuts Ford has been putting on their vehicles the last few years. The part number is 61148CX and it’s stamped on each lug nut. I replaced my factory lug nuts with these lug nuts from Gorilla Automotive and they’re a lot shinier and better looking than the factory ones and make your wheels look better than the dull metal look you get from the factory set. I posted a link to the eBay page for those of you that may be in the market to replace your set of factory lug nuts before you end up having to pay a lot more for another set of the same type of garbage lug nuts from the dealership when you bring your truck in for an oil change and tire rotation. If you haven’t experienced it yet, you will soon be told by the service writer that they need to be replaced due to the fact they are garbage and will warp, rust on the inside, crack, and/or strip from the technicians using an impact to remove them and put them back on. Ford charges between $5-$10 per lug nut to replace them with the same defective lug nuts.
There is currently a class action law suit that was filed against Ford because of their lug nuts. I’m really happy I replaced mine and you should do the same if you haven’t yet.

Good luck guys and gals

I get the feeling that the Ebay listing is yours.

Ha.

People sue for everything and anything.

Folks are pretentiously waiting to find flaws in things only to sue.

Why do you get to point out the elephant in the room?

"Do these pants make me look fat?"
"No. The pants are fine."

You don't live on The Left Coast. People will sue you, just to sue you.
