Before you put that wheel back on make sure to wire wheel the contact surfaces on the wheel and drum/hub. After its clean apply a liberal coating of anti seize. You dont want to have to deal with this again if you get a flat on the side of the highway!

my method wont cause any damage if your smart and know what your doing. my method only uses one person as well thank ya. sometimes, as i've seen, your "method" can damage the threads on the lugs....
