You, sir, are a genius. I couldn't get the lug nuts off my Corvette today, and after watching this, they were off in five minutes!

I'm starting out as a tech. This has been invaluable to me. Thank you so much for explaining and for mentioning that a bit of anti seize on the head will go a long way.

A great display of how a few minutes of patience is better than an hour of primitive brute force that destroys things. Yes I have my own stories of what was brought to me from seized wheel nuts. One of those was the deciding factor in never letting a customer assist me in any way.

Thank you so much! My husband did this after working on the rim for over an hour and it worked in minutes!!

People torque them down way more than necessary too

I am so grateful for your video explaining where the Lug is Really frozen. I spent over an hour trying brute force and extractors and was about to drill. Thankfully I took a break and found this video!! A sledge hammer, an impact socket, a breaker bar with a pipe extension and that lug was off in 3 minutes! Many thanks!

I am impressed. I'm a Tool and Die Maker that works on his car and truck and I did not think about the taper being the problem. Thanks. Great video.

I was working on an 85 300zx that sat for 20 years, lug nuts were are all seized solid and even my biggest impact couldnt get em, found your vid and it took some meaty whacks from a small sledge but they came off after. Big thanks!

I am a fan of the torque wrench. In this case, dissimilar metals reacted with road salt. I never liked aluminum rims. My love for the torque wrench is the prevention of warped rotors. I learn from your videos every time.

Great video! I just wasted an hour with an impact wrench, an hour with a breaker bar, about a quarter can of PB Blaster, and two trips to my local auto parts store. Exhausted, I decided to call it quits for the day and was planning on getting a good nights sleep and then going back at it tomorrow with a torch, to heat the lug nuts. No doubt you saved me a couple hours labor, and a migraine, with this solution. Thank you in advance.

Many Thanks man. I had a lug stuck and the tire shop was not able to remove it. Kept on hammering with the Milwaukee mid torque wrench.
Got the van home, watched your video. Took out the hammer (small one though) and went crazy.
Used the Dewalt new mid torque wrench, 10 seconds tops and it came off. Thank God.
Saved the rim, stud and money.

Best advice to get off a seized lug nut!😀
I wish I had seen this soon before my lug nut needed a smaller size socket to come off.

Thank you so much for this video. I was needing to change my swollen factory lug nuts on my Toyota Tundra and you saved me a lot headache on this one. I had watched another video from a different guy who drilled his out. Your method was simple. Blessings to you!

Hi Kenny, had similar experiences as you describe here, whack socket with hammer and off she comes. Dammed alloy wheels look good but give me a steel wheel anyday particularly if it is on a 4x4. Also, if you deal with Toyota cars they use a very substantial nut with a generous shoulder that protrudes into the wheel deeper than most types, I find this quite superior to most popular designs.
Great video as always fella, keep it up 👍

Glad I found your video! After hours of frustrating brute force work on a stubborn nut, a couple hammer blows as you demo'd and it came right off! Thanks much!

You're the man! I've been fighting a stuck locking nut for a week. I hammered on a 19mm 12-point socket and it wouldn't budge, it just worked it's way off. Then I slid a 3/4 deep socket over it, banged on it with a heavy hammer and hit it again with the impact and boom - spun right off. I've been fighting that thing for hours before watching your video.
