How To Loosen Frozen Lug Nuts With No Special Tools: This is the easy way to break any lug nut loose. Using the force of inertia from a spinning wheel, you can loosen lug nuts faster and with less effort than you may have realized. Not only is this easier than most lug nut loosening methods, but you can also remove even the most stubborn frozen lug nut with this method. And the best part is, there are no special tools required. All you need is a 1/2" drive breaker bar (mine is a 24” Matco) and an impact socket, properly sized for your lug nuts. I can’t stress enough to use a BREAKER BAR and not a ratchet and to use an IMPACT SOCKET and not a chrome socket. Although this method looks virtually effortless, there are incredible forces at work which will shatter a chrome socket and/or break a ratchet if you attempt this method with the wrong tools.
This is by far the easiest method to loosen a stuck lug nut. And, it's also the kindest method on your back. Once you master this technique, I promise you'll never bend over to loosen lug nuts again. What's not to like? It's easier on the body, faster and more effective than power tools, long pipes, etc.
This is a cool trick I learned from my first boss when I was 13 years old and have been using ever since. In my opinion, this trick should be taught to and practiced by all drivers before they need to change a tire. You can break free even the most stubborn lug nuts with the lug wrench and jack that come with your vehicle, if you know how to use them. But, how many of us have been stuck on the side of the road and unable to loosen an over-tightened lug nut? Who knew the solution was right there in our hands all along? Please share this video far and wide for the benefit of every driver.
