Title: tire tools are worthless unless u get something commercial grade
Post by: Marty Champions on July 17, 2018, 08:12:46 AM
twist 2 of my cross tire irons tryin to get the lugs off, then actually broke one of the lugs on the thread bolt from overtightening, ill just drive with 7 lugs instead of 8.    lesson learned u need pro tools for lugs, ive never had an issue before though.

always spray wd40 before you loosen lugs nuts the rods get hot so they self tighten while driving...and when you put the lug nut back on it should be tight enough that you don't have to use all you're strength when you tighten it down it takes a lot to break a tire rod

Try penetrating oil and map gas heat on the nut amigo.  Also, impact wrenches work so well because shock loads require less torque than steady loads.

Normally use a long powerbar and a socket rather than a wheel brace/tyre iron makes it easy, Failing that if you don’t have a rattler flogging the wheel brace with a hammer to shock the nut loose tends to work rather than pulling on it when it’s excessively tight.

The stripped stud should tap out the hub, easy and cheap to replace

Lo mejor en esos casos, es una pistola neumatica de impacto e el ya hablado WD40. Dejalo impregnar una horas antes de intentar con la pistola.
If they are rusted, try a torch to heat them up before. Let it cool.

Sí bueno.
