Does anyone have any tricks for getting locking wheel studs out,

I am particulary interesting in tips on how to get the Grayston Engineering ones off. They have 4 little pins that locate into 4 holes in the wheel stud




Some person with a small penis and a brain to match either gunned up or torqued up the wheel studs on my missus car after fitting a pair of tyres so tight I now cant get the fooker off...

And I've just spent a couple of hours this afternoon fitting new disks & pads... and at the moment the job is half done and I just want to kick some one square in the sack...

Because if I cant get it off its going to have to go to Kwik Fit in the morning and they are going to charge to remove it....


Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh !!!

if you can get to dunstable your welcome to have the locking nutt removal thingys i got, will get a piccie in a mo, may not be any good to ya but just in case

Rick

ramming a socket on, twatting the fuck out of it with a hammer always works. U'll ruin the socket but it should give.

tis similar to this

Actually looking at the nuts, it doesnt look like it will work,

Have you tried hammering on a socket over the wheel nut? worked for me when i lost my locking nut on my old RST

22 or 24mm socket,whacked on with big hammer. I once borrowed an impact socket with a left hand thread on the inside from my local garage,worked a treat but haven't seen one since.

Left hand windouts, will undo up to 200lbs of force so thius is piss easy for them, will obviously destroy locker but no use anyway.

Its a date !!!

thanks for the advice guys.. 'n' gal.. I knew it was going to involve violence of some sort or another.... although I would have liked to inflict it on the spanner munkee who did it up rather than the stud itself.

And the lockers are going in the bin... they're rubbish !

those ones are a fucker to get of as there is no where to put the nut to actually remove the wheel nut thats stuck

if anyone actually looks at the picture they will understand this

on those the only way to get them off if they are done up too tight is to drill the heads off

if you've lost the key then it's much easier

hope you get itoff without to much violence, but i can't see it myself

neilm

I've got the 'key' but its worn and the holes in the stud are worn so as soon as you put on a lot of pressure it just slips out... fooking thing

drill the holes slightly bigger

and make sure the three normal nuts are still fully tightened.

Well....

Big Up Chairman Steve... !!

He administered his own special type of violence and it was all over in a matter of seconds...

took him longer to find the socket that was about to receive the abuse..
