      42 draft designs.
      First this
      Then this
      And right now I'm trying to take off another nut but it's not coming off cause the stud is spinning with it lolol. but the stud isn't even coming out either, I feel like it's just spinning in place. Is that even possible?

            Daaaang Ayman, I thought I got it bad. The quality on those things, looks less than mediocre.

                  This is why you use anti seize on wheel hardware.

                    F-that, after all the issues I've had with the inner hardware on the 42 draft adapters I've moved on to loctite.

                      that's why you go with motorsport-tech adpaters. the best money can buy. never had an issue with that. even ran studs on them from motorsport hardware.

                        The 42-draft are a better/safer design in my opinion...I just think their R&D dept jumped the gun a bit.

                        We've seen guys on this forum with issues on the MST/Adaptec ones too. You can't convince me that the wobbly bolt is a better option..

                          I'm going to be testing a new adapter design soon.
