7pc 1/2" drive twist socket set/wheel lock nut remover/removal U.S.PRO AT136

This lug lock remover was used to remove a severely lug nut that a lug nut remover could not remove. The problem was the two part Jeep lug nut separated (as they often do) into the tin shell and the threaded portion that goes on the stud. The metal on this now separated lug nut is soft and easily damaged. Several tools were used to try to get it off. First of course was a 19mm lug wrench which didn't work because without the shell, the lug nut was no longer 19mm. The first use of the 19mm socket rounded off the corners slightly and thus began the downward spiral. A smaller socket would likely do the trick but it only made the problem worse rounding off the corner even more. So the solution was to use my Craftsman 3/8 inch drive lug nut remover set. Sadly, no luck with this tool either. By now the soft metal of this lug nut is almost completely round. Even trying to hammer on the Craftsman sockets didn't work. The next attempt was to try to weld a rod onto the deteriorating lug nut. If I could weld on a lug nut that had a sheared off stud or weld bar onto the lug nut I could use a lug wrench or a breaker bar and get the lug nut off. The welding didn't take and damaged the aluminum wheel. The lug nut itself had seen better days. It was more than chewed up and had weld spatter in places. Some more research is required.After many YouTube videos of others struggling with this same issue I was not very optimistic, that the lug would come off without much time, a damaged wheel and/or other damaged parts that would have be replaced afterwards. It was then I found the U.S.PRO AT136 lug lock removal tool on Amazon. Thought the name of the tool said it was for lug LOCKS, the threaded design was the right solution for my situation. I ordered the set. It arrived. I put it on my damaged lug nut and voila! This by far was the easiest removal I have ever made. 100% approval of this tool. It's a game changer. It works on damaged lug nuts so it should also work removing lug locks. If this is your problem, buy a set and end your suffering. You can thank me later.

My husband works in the tire industry and we ordered this for his job. He is overly pleased with it. Exact words were it’s freaking dope. It has exceeded his expectations.

Works great! Used many times and still great results.

Sockets are organized in a nice blow-molded case. Great quality! They did the job perfectly. I highly recommend these for anyone that needs to remove bolts and nuts that are damaged or pipes that need unthreaded that do not have a flat on them. Less marring than using a pipe wrench.

20mm broke the first time I used it, total JUNK. Waste of money

Hope to find a larger set that works, this should fit most jobs.

These things work great not easy sometimes but I have used them several times today I took 4 locking lug nuts in about 15 minutes you have to put lug in vice to get tool off lug nut I charged a lady 60 dollars 15 each she was happy and I'm gonna buy another set on thing the set needs a socket one size larger Hal Hill

These worked great had all four locks off in 30 minutes. Backing off the socket was a little tough, but with a vise and a breaker bar came off.

It worked perfect for removing lock nuts first one took awhile to get off but as soon as the tool broke in the other 3 where super easy

My Audi Q3 rear nearside locking wheel bolt was seized on and it was beginning to damage the bolt head. I realised this in time and loosened the other three before continuing to attempt removing it. After a few more goes realised that the locking wheel bolt head was not going to be reusable even if I could remove it. I then did some research on the internet which led me eventually to this wheel lock nut removal kit. Once ordered it arrived on time, as shown and as described. From my research I had worked out that before I could use the tool I would have to remove the spinning outer ring on the stuck bolt. once I had done this I selected the correct size removal tool from the kit placed it carefully on the nut and using a hammer tapped it on. Once I thought it was secure enough to attach my breaker bar I did so and began to apply pressure to unscrew the stuck bolt. The tool has a left handed thread which is supposed to turn and gradually tighten on the bolt until it undoes it. Unfortunately on my first attempt the tool would not tighten as expected. I then started again by not just tapping the tool onto the stuck bolt but hammered it on as hard as I dare. I then reattached my breaker bar. Once I applied some pressure I soon began to feel the tool biting into the bolt head and after about only a quarter of a turn I felt a sort of crack as it suddenly turned the bolt loose. Of course my feelings were mainly relief but also what a brilliant tool! Really very happy! Great tool if used correctly. Recommended.

J’ai pu sortir un goujon de roue sauf que impossible de le désolidariser de l’embout.Sinon bonne qualité
