Do I need a New Star Nut When Trimming the Replacement Ladder Support Peg 8531-B
Updated 03/22/2019 | Published 03/20/2019
Question:
If I trim the 12 inch peg to 5 1/2 inches at the plastic cap end, do I have to buy a new expansion nut for that end of the pipe?

Expert Reply:
If you cut the replacement ladder support part # 8531-B down to 5-1/2 inches you do not need a new expansion nut. You can remove the plastic cap from the peg, push the star shaped nut down (pictured in the photo) and cut the peg. Then replace the plastic cap.
