No thanks Nacho, you can keep your nuts to yourself mate... especially if they are six sided

I'd wanna see a doc bout that one.

Not hex nuts, hex sockets. As in allen key sockets. Have a look at the end of the thread on your droplinks and see if there is an allen key fitting at the tip. Wish I still had mine i'd just post a pic.

In here is where I'm talking about, in the tip of the thread.

Put spanner on nut, Allen key in socket in end of thread, turn spanner while holding allen key... easy.

If someone has some lying around, can they please look at them so I don't sound like I'm crazy.

Aha. Here's the pic I wanted.

That hole in the end of the thread is an allen key socket.

This is another rear one, but I'm not sure if the front ones have the same arrangement.

Guys if you stick a 14 inch wrench just before where the rubber section starts then it'll work. Have a look at Ben's photo again. It will do the job seriously!
