When ever I grind or stall it loosens bothe my front and rear axle nuts and I even have anti spin set up in back. My front gets really loose and the back just gets loose enough to piss me off. what sould I do?

If you have 3/8" get primo jewels.. if you have 1/2" get bizhouse nads.. they really work and are awesome... they will really hold tight man.

I will get some soon I just need to get some cash. I tightened them really hard last night and they seem to be holding. I am thinking about just getting really hard nuts. they are enexpensive compared to jewals and nads too.
crikey..... nuts, jewals or nads ?

Darn they started spinning agian. I need anti spinners and nuw nuts. Are titanium nuts any good or should I get special made grade 8 nuts by a fastener company. That would be cheap too.

i have a question too
does standing on one peg while doing a fork glide bend the axle or make it lose at all?

Not if its a strong axle most 3/8 will handle being stood on and all 14mm will. It shouldn'rt loosen them if the axle nuts are tight.
