Abstract: We regularized the field equations of $f(T)$ gravity theories such that the effect of Local Lorentz Transformation (LLT), in the case of spherical symmetry, is removed. A "general tetrad field", with an arbitrary function of radial coordinate preserving spherical symmetry is provided. We split that tetrad field into two matrices; the first represents a LLT, which contains an arbitrary function, the second matrix represents a proper tetrad field which is a solution to the field equations of $f(T)$ gravitational theory, (which are not invariant under LLT). This "general tetrad field" is then applied to the regularized field equations of $f(T)$. We show that the effect of the arbitrary function which is involved in the LLT invariably disappears.
