How to remove wheel locks without a key using common tools 

Thank you also for taking time to show the removal of the help-socket after it gets stuck!

Saved me . Tried everything to no avail, but this was the trick that worked.

21mm worked great! Thank you! This was an answer to my prayers!

Worked perfectly, absolutely brilliant. Thank you.

Very instructive and well presented - Thanks.

Try tightening the other normal lug nuts a bit to release the stress of the lock nut- that will give you less trouble to loosen the lock nut.

Nice video! I had four on my Maxima and I got two off I think using a socket is easier I wind up buying two reverse lock remove those on Amazon and I had a bang the hell out of there is 1 million times to get to those things off so I think the socket works better good job!

Thanks for sharing video. I went to garage wanted to charge me 120$. in dealership would cost more. I am going to try that. Thanks again

Good idea! I’m going to try this. I bought a used truck and the previous owner lost the lock key.

4:33 there’s your wheel lock.......reusable. Fuck that. Bin it. Good video. Thanks.

This was helpful, thanks.

Thankyou very helpful!

Get huge X shaped lug nut remover, had one in my car.. jam it on the largest side.. stand on it for leverage. Step on the left side & bounce/jump.. took off 3 easy! My neighbor took the last one off *he's heavier then me* no other tools needed. Removed all 4 on my jeep wrangler.

You’re the best

Excellent 😎👍

You can use vise grips to hold extension while hammering to remove lug nut from socket. Will prevent your fingers from harms way.

I had a customer today with same problem. His security lug nut is so huge (there is small gap between nut and rim hole). Tried to apply same method but i couldnt find socket slim enough to do this without damaging his brand new rims.

To get the socket out when it is stuck, simply attach an extender and hit the socket with a hammer. The vibration will pop it loose. No need for a larger socket.

Good Video, I would use a breaker bar, breaking nuts loose isn't good for the calibration on your torque wrench.

Thanks

What size socket was this? 1 inch? Trying to figure out which one to buy

This didn’t work for me but I got this “ABN Twist Socket Set Lug Nut Remover Extractor Tool - 5 Piece Metric Bolt and Lug Nut Extractor Socket Tools” and it worked perfectly on an impact.

Are you using a torque wrench as a breaker bar? Bro that thing is toast now 😂

Will this kit work on a 2010ford fiesta

What are those sockets called named?

3:28 holly fuck it cost me zero dollars to remove four lock nuts. I asked a freind to use his friggin tools

It will only work if your wheels are not over torqued AND if have the right 12 point socket.. Check first and loosen if needed BEFORE you try this.. otherwise it may spin on the outside and ruin any future attempts.. Ask me how I know.. And DON'T use a silicone lubricant trying to get the socket on or off.. Again, ask me how I know...

What size is the socket to remove it?

3:10 omfg you only need one socket just put a somthing solid down into the socket and whack the lock nut out of the socket you may need to put it in a vice or just smack the thing that you used in the socket on the ground to pop the lock nut out of the socket

Good video!

What about if the outer part of locking lug isn't fixed & spins round? I knocked a socket on & took me 2 hours to get it off and it's still stuck in the socket now so that method will NOT work on my Fiat 500X

if lock has slip ring on it this dont work

All good...but I would not suggest using your tools as punches...just just a punch.

There is a simple trick to make the removal process of the wheel lock from the 12 pt socket by holding it upside down when hitting it: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nyZ2PkBUVJo.html

You and alot of other people totally useing and abusing a torque wrench....You never break fastners loose with it😲😫...

You have no volume, cannot hear you with my pc volume wide open!!

WISE GRIPS wrench works too. BUT RIM SURFACES MAY GET SCRATCHED. RAFI MAINE USA

All I need to remove a locking wheel nut in ten seconds is a lug wrench (the one that comes with your car), and a paper clip. Works every time. No hammers, sockets, blah blah.

1. You were way too far away from your mic... 2. You don't use a torque wrench to loosen lug nuts 3. There are toooooo many videos out there about this (using a breaker bar) already! 4. Using an extension to knock the wheel lock out of the socket you pretty much messed-up the extension too... Wow! 5. Consider remake/remove this video so perhaps you will have subscriber/save the embarrassment.

Newer lock lugs have a bearing on the outside
