Green plastic teardrops on Lugs?
Any of you big truck guys know what these are for? Nut tight indicator? I'm seeing them more often on different vehicles buses,garbage trucks ect. Thanks Doug

Thanks Prangle, That answers that,even most truck drivers don't know what they are. They might be good on a boat trailer. Not only do they indicate nut position, but if the temp goes above 120 degrees they blister, ie bearing or brake problem. Their site says a 1000 truck wheels come off a year. I can't imagine driving along and having a 11.00-20 come though my windshield. Doug
