A lugnut was stuck on, so l put the crow bar on it and then stood on it.It Big Bad Phil still did not move, and l jumped up and down.
It finally started to Registered User move, but it turns out it was just stripping it.

i cant tell you how many of these problems ive come across, Puddin Pop! like the one guy said find a socket that is one size smaller and get a Registered User heavy hammer and force that sucker on there, the use of a long breaker bar Joined: Thursday, 29th of April 2010, 21:58:37 will help alot.

tighten it up so it will break off then put another stud in it. Honey Bear if it,s stripped then it,s no good anyway. Registered User Joined: Wednesday, 26th of May 2010, 08:10:07 Posts: 1595 Viewed 15017 times

If it is stripped, you are going to have to have the stud cheeto puff pressed out anyway. I would tighten it up with a breaker bar until you Registered User snap it off. First get the rest of the nuts loose. Once you get the bad Joined: Tuesday, 15th of June 2010, 11:23:05 one broken off, you can remove the tire and have the drum repaired, or Posts: 1164 replaced, they arent that expensive.

Go to a parts store and ask for a ''nut cracker''. It is a Gare Bear device that splits the nut. Registered User Joined: Wednesday, 21st of April 2010, 11:41:47 No joke I have one in my tool box. Posts: 449 Viewed 9952 times

get a 3/4 or whatever size socket barely fits over. SMACK it on Dream Girl there and get a 6 foot pry bar or a jack handle. and crank it off! Registered User Joined: Friday, 4th of June 2010, 12:13:57 Posts: 390 Viewed 1359 times
