Lots of good / additional information at this thread:
http://www.fordraptorforum.com/f264/new-lug-nuts-wheel-locks-52030/

Not to start a debate, but I really did not care for the look of the locking / spline lug nuts and really see no reason for them for my location. In the above referenced post, the OP provides part number 61147BCX for the non-locking lugs for a pack of 4. The individual lug part number is 61148CX, but sometimes it is posted at 61148BCX.

I found a package of 24 at this link for $77.99, but use SAVE5 at check out and they are $74.09 with free shipping.

I had used similar black Gorilla lugs on a Jeep I had and liked the quality. But recalled that finish was not always the same exact thickness. Normally they require standard 13/16" socket, but one of the 24 was just a little thicker and a 21mm socket fit much better. I could have knocked on the 13/16" socket but I am sure it would have marred the finish. Other than that no issues.

At first I was not going to change the lugs. Did not hate the OEM chrome ones, but then noticed that a lot of them were marred up. Probably from the factory, but guess could have been the dealer which is unlikely.

Here is a side-by-side of the OEM vs. Gorilla.

They come in individual sealed package from Gorilla and then into package of 24 by CJ's.

And finally a few more pictures showing before / after shots for those that like detail.

I think the ones I got are a little longer than stock. Maybe cause they're the locking ones?

The B in the part number just means they were purchased in Bulk. They are exactly the same other than that

They look good. I like the look of the 17 stock bead lock wheels and those lugs just make them better.
