7pc 1/2" drive twist socket set/wheel lock nut remover/removal U.S.PRO AT136

This lug lock remover was used to remove a severely lug nut that a lug nut remover could not remove. The problem was the two part Jeep lug nut separated (as they often do) into the tin shell and the threaded portion that goes on the stud. The metal on this now separated lug nut is soft and easily damaged. Several tools were used to try to get it off. First of course was a 19mm lug wrench which didn't work because without the shell, the lug nut was no longer 19mm. The first use of the 19mm socket rounded off the corners slightly and thus began the downward spiral. A smaller socket would likely do the trick but it only made the problem worse rounding off the corner even more. So the solution was to use my Craftsman 3/8 inch drive lug nut remover set. Sadly, no luck with this tool either. By now the soft metal of this lug nut is almost completely round. Even trying to hammer on the Craftsman sockets didn't work. The next attempt was to try to weld a rod onto the deteriorating lug nut. If I could weld on a lug nut that had a sheared off stud or weld bar onto the lug nut I could use a lug wrench or a breaker bar and get the lug nut off. The welding didn't take and damaged the aluminum wheel. The lug nut itself had seen better days. It was more than chewed up and had weld spatter in places. Some more research is required.After many YouTube videos of others struggling with this same issue I was not very optimistic, that the lug would come off without much time, a damaged wheel and/or other damaged parts that would have be replaced afterwards. It was then I found the U.S.PRO AT136 lug lock removal tool on Amazon. Thought the name of the tool said it was for lug LOCKS, the threaded design was the right solution for my situation. I ordered the set. It arrived. I put it on my damaged lug nut and voila! This by far was the easiest removal I have ever made. 100% approval of this tool. It's a game changer. It works on damaged lug nuts so it should also work removing lug locks. If this is your problem, buy a set and end your suffering. You can thank me later.

Sockets are organized in a nice blow-molded case. Great quality! They did the job perfectly. I highly recommend these for anyone that needs to remove bolts and nuts that are damaged or pipes that need unthreaded that do not have a flat on them. Less marring than using a pipe wrench.

Fine Product. Quick shipping. Thank you.

My husband works in the tire industry and we ordered this for his job. He is overly pleased with it. Exact words were it’s freaking dope. It has exceeded his expectations.

The quality is terrible, it broke the very first time I used it

Hope to find a larger set that works, this should fit most jobs.

These things work great not easy sometimes but I have used them several times today I took 4 locking lug nuts in about 15 minutes you have to put lug in vice to get tool off lug nut I charged a lady 60 dollars 15 each she was happy and I'm gonna buy another set on thing the set needs a socket one size larger Hal Hill

These worked great had all four locks off in 30 minutes. Backing off the socket was a little tough, but with a vise and a breaker bar came off.
