Fizzy's trailer has lorry sized German all steel wheels & wheel nuts with a split cone seating washer under the nut . They need a rather high torqueing up setting way beyond the range of most normal torque wrenches .
That makes it a bit harder to achieve a given torque setting for wheel nuts when you don't have a decent down force on the tyre and you start spinning the wheel, moving the who trailer etc. rather then tightening or loosening the nut.
