Any ideas on how to protect the chrome lugs from the damage that air impact wrenches do when they take off and put on the wheels? I know that telling them to do it by hand will help alot, but i cannot be around all the time that they are rotating them.

 

Don't use an impact.

 

Certainly you can be around, march your *** right to the back of the shop. ITS YOUR TRUCK! Tell them to do it by hand. Its what i had to do.

And normally the people in the back actually rotating your tires will understand, its the management who dosn't care.
