Thanks Eddie I appreciate the kind words welcome to the channel Not all the time are my videos like this After you’ve been doing KZread for a while, you realize that if you’re gonna make any money at all, you have to keep people watching . Most KZread videos pay anywhere from 2/10 of a cent to 5/10 of a cent even if people watch the whole thing so it’s not the most lucrative business when you’re not showing boobs and Lamborghinis. I hope you enjoy the continent. Thank you very much. Have a great day.

I totally agree.

Just used your trick on a 21 mm Toyota Camary nut and worked like a charm, and the pounding it on the concrete ground to remove it was awesome, too. Thank you so much. it only slowed me down 10 minutes.

Worked like a charm. 19mm Dodge Caliber lug nut. Used a 3/4 - 1/2 drive 12 point. Pounded it on there (straight), grabbed my 24 inch breaker bar and it came right off. Even was able to get the lug nut out of the socket with no problem. Put it in my bench vise and was able to punch it out from the other side. Your mileage may vary, but it took me all of 5 minutes.

The advice on a stripped lug nut worked like a charm. I like your videos. Short and to the point. The humor is helpful because we all know that when things are not working out, it is easy to get peaved. A good laugh certainly helps realign your mood.

Pulled this video up after I had to change my tire in the middle of chicago traffic, finished and made it to work on time. This was simple and educational . Thank you for the learning experience and cheesy jokes my man!

I'm so thankful for this video, you saved my ass from having to go to a shop thank you 👍👍

Was fighting with 2 stuck lugs on my 94 ranger... you saved my after a few hours of trying different things before I found your video!

Thanks for the vid. I just watched it about an hour ago and went outside to do mine and it worked somewhat flawlessly. I only had one socket that I could use and after I hammered it on I realized it was a 3/8 drive and I wasn't sure a 3/8 ratchet wrench would have enough oomph to get it off. Since it was a Craftsman I figured if it breaks, I'll get a new one. I used a bicycle seat post for leverage and got every lug off without hassle. It only took about 4-5 blows to get each lug out of the socket so it only took less than 15 minutes to do the four I needed to do. I can't believe Sam's Club couldn't do this and made me wait until tomorrow to get my tires installed. I know any regular tire shop does this all the time but, I figure Sam's is we don't work harder than we have to.

Was working on my Tacoma with my buddy in the rain when it was getting dark and I overpowered the lug nuts and stripped them this video is the only reason I was able to finish my truck tonight

Got both your tricks to work and my 3/4” 12-point socket held up. Thanks!

That is a sick trick, been doing it when necessary for the last 25 years. Good job.

My boyfriend is one of those full-on I can do everything and I know all, especially if it has a tool involved. So while he's at work I watched your video and thank you because I love it when I prevail at things he thought impossible. Love your video

What I always did was use a screwdriver to chisel down the side of the tin to open it up. You can then stick the screwdriver inside and pop the tin off. There’s a steel lug nut inside unharmed and you can put a socket on it and take it right off.

I've just followed your advice and it worked. I had been on the roadside for over an hour. Thanks

worked like a charm, thnx!

I used high quality hardened socket with a hole in the middle. When it was loose I placed it into a vise, then I took lug out using a hammer and a drift, hitting it trough that hole. Smashing it like this with a hammer might crack it, or it will crack partially and it will broke next time you will use it as you are putting way too much of stress into it. And you can also buy socket that is specifically designed to remove stripped off lug nuts or bolts. I guess it´s called the bolt extractor in English and I believe it´s a bit easier to use. It costs more or less the same as socket of similar size and because it does not require so many hits with a hammer, it has much higher chance of surviving more usages.

Thanks for the vid man, I was using a rubber mallet and wondered why it wasn’t working lol, “she said use a bigger hammer”

Thank you very much sir I got stranded on the road and I had a 13/16 my 21in was stripped and it came with the 13/16 ty

So we have a 2008 Jeep Liberty, we took it to Trenton Tire and they could not remove the stripped rusted bolt either, I don’t know if they tried a 12 sided socket . They suggested I buy a RIP socket. Do you have any ideas if 12 sided socket doesn’t work?

Remind me to never let you borrow my expensive socket set.

You can also heat the nut with an induction tool. This will be localised and the nut should expand without heating the stud and make it easier to remove.

This man can see into the future

;Luv you guys

Bruh😮😮😮...that actually worked....I was messing for an hour..watch this video...30 secs..off 😅. I am not worthy. 🙌🏼

I'm dealing with a Polaris Ranger 6x6 with recessed lug nuts. A 9/16's is a hair too loose and a 12 point 14mm fits, but just rolls over. I've got a complete s.a.e. & metric "Bolt Biter" set, but they're too thick. The rims are alloy, so acetylene or welding is out. You can't even get to the rear stud flange to grind them off! The lugs are solid with aluminum end caps, so I guess drilling them out is the only option. Seems like they make stuff intentionally stupid and difficult to discourage any of the D.I.Y'ers.

Sir. Your idea had clout and I wholeheartedly appreciate the effort. But I ended up rounding it out. So I cut it out. Bolt and all. Luckiky I had another rim. Put the old tire on new rim. And put the strut in like clockwork. Then I went to the other side and cv join5 got yoinked out. Got an exterior boot for it. Found my lower ball joint to be messed up as well. Now Im going to rig another boot onto it. This ride has been a nightmare for me on day 1. Founr out by the cops that the previous owner has felony warrants, so i had to give up my name. I hesitated because all i was doing was bringing it back from where i bought it and was 20 mins deep, vacuuming after washing it at the carwash. I hesitated because first, I didnt do anything and second, I have 3 misdemeanor warrants. Also on the way to the car wash, found a glass pipe between driver side seat and shifter. Put it in my pocket and forgot to toss it in the beginning. So now I got a drug paraphernalia charge. The real fucked up thing? They cuffed me and seached me after running my name and saying I had a 418 (resisting/fighting police) which they corrected themselves AFTER search.

Eastwood makes a lug nut extractor tool

Well I had two stripped lug nuts which are 21mm metric and I can take a 13/16 standard to take it off

bang socket still stripped but now i have a socket that wont come off over the lugnut so i banged a bigger socket over the socket and that one also go stuck and now im in a few sockets also stuck over lugnut im thinking to keep adding sockets lol

I have 13/16 lugs. Bought a 13/16 12 point socket, but it just started raining. Gonna go at it tomorrow! Ps, I bought a socket set to go with my new 1/2 impact driver, and the 13/16 it came with doesn’t fit right, have to bang it on. That’s why I’m in this position, I didn’t put it in all the way and stripped the tip. My four way lug wrench always fit just right. Maybe it’s just a bad 13/16 socket? The 3/4 from the set went right on my moms just right.

Ive experienced the whole STD situation only mine was from my Harley and it was crabs to the point of crotch crickets. I couldn't figure it out for the life of me, then i remembered that my ol'lady surprised me and took some nude pictures for a calendar as a gift. In turn i did it for her. So there i am in some ass less chaps and we believe that was the reason. She told me she got the crotch crickets from our toilet seat. Seems legit .

Sooooo tried that and broke 2 Adapters and 2 extensions. And my impact won't touch it. Wtf
