Right. Before it's a sticky, someone other than me, you and your mum need to post in it.

I've got one! I've got one!

How to I reinstall axle pegs? Do I need an insane socket or am I just missing the basics? You can skip the telling me I'm dumb part...

you put it over the axel, then use a socket with a extension.

Use a tire iron from your car if you don't have an extender. They're bigger, but that means you can get more leverage

how do you take pegs off? Mine dont have a place to screw them off and I think it may involve taking off the wheel for my bike.

Wow. I feel like being especially annoying today (in case no one hasn't noticed). This is the "question thread" and we do need everyone and their mothers to post... so I am fitting both of these criteria.
