Need Help
#1
Hopefully someone can help. I started dropping my truck a few days ago and finally finished it except for the notch. I have one lug nut that is stripped and I am not able to remove it. I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on breaking that lug loose. I am set on having to get new lugs as I see the current lugs have been bottoming out on the studs. I did purchase a lug nut removal tool, but needless to say the lug didn't come out. Thanks in advance.

Get a crappy 12 point socket that fits real tight over the nut(make sure it is 1/2" drive) and drive it on the nut with a hammer(if you put the extension on the socket thet makes a easier place to strike with the hammer), then remove it. This trick also works with locking nuts that you lost the tool for. The reason I say a crappy socket is you will probally not be able to get the nut back out of the socket and will throw them away together.
