If they are the stock jeep nuts they are as stainless cover over a steel nut. Do yourself a favor and go to napa or carquest and get some good one piece nuts and put them on with a little antisieze. The problem with the 2 piece nuts: the rust expands under the stainless shell and then one is forced to take the shell off with a chisel and pound a metric inpact socket over the remainder of the half rounded steel insert.
