[QUOTE="Fouledplugs, post: 425791, member: 18666"] I actually got lucky and tried a 6 point 7/8” impact socket. I have very little 12 point sockets. But 12 points provide greater increases in “bite.” [ATTACH type="full"]115920[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]115921[/ATTACH] I hammered it on, deformed the locking lug nut so that the socket had something to bite on, and it came right off. [ATTACH type="full"]115922[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]115923[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]115924[/ATTACH] Once the locking lug nut was off the wheel stud, it was stuck inside the socket. I used a bearing race driver (one could easily use a screw driver) and slide the race driver into the back of the socket, used a hammer and knocked the locking lug but right out of the socket. Repeated until I had them all off. [/QUOTE]
