...the thing that un-doos the locking wheel nut?!?,...if i dont have one would i be able to go get one??,or have to replace?,..
your probably best going to a tyre shop like bobjane etc
and show them what type you have and they can probably get a replacement tool
theres just been so many different kinds made over the years
...i thought as much!,i just wondered wether you could buy a universal one,but now i think about it,that would make it very easy for the wheel
robbers!,..to go about thier business!,i better go and see mr b
jane then,cheers!!
i had this problem once before so i went to a tyre place and all they did was get an old socket that was a tight fit on the outside of the nut and used a BFH to secure it and went to it with a rattle gun. most of the locking nuts are tapered on the outside so belting a socket on works well.
....cheers thinker,if i have no luck the BFH will definatly come into play!!
Hi
I have to remove these sometimes when I'm at work, we use a special tool, its like a female easy out, I believe most tyre places have these.
