@SAM and @newcluelessRVowners, DH has put the brahma on either side using the above described method and the lug plate is snug when the lock is properly seated. Good luck.

@dragonsdofly - we will try your method the next time. Makes sense.

To CoCamper:
What size Brahma lock is that--did you get size 1 (15, 16, 17" wheels) or size 2 (12, 13, 14" wheels)?

We have a 320 CS-S with 14" wheels and logically bought the size 2 Brahma. During installation, because we couldn't get it situated just right we couldn't get it to lock. We have very little clearance in the wheel well to get it up and over the tire, the axel seemed in the way of the locking arm, and the shallow plate is pretty loosely positioned.

Did we get the wrong size lock? Or are we approaching it all wrong from the wrong angle? Any tips you have on installation are appreciated.

Thanks!

@newcluelessRVowners Luiza at Brahma spec'd this which is what we have:
WL-002 locks fit 13" - 14" wheel-tire combinations
WL-001a (shallow hub cover)

SAM is right, it's a lot easier to place the lock on the passenger side. Should be almost a piece of cake that way. I think they may suggest driver side placement just so you see it before trying to drive off with while still locked to the wheel?
