Hi Guys, I need to remove the wheel`s off my scrap zed so it can be scrapped, does anyone know the tool i need to get the alloys off,It seems an unusual locking nut? any help or links would be appreciated

Thanks Daz.

 

Locking nut looks very similar to the Pug type. I recently had to try and get all 4 off of my sons 106, nice RAC man did one when he had a flat and took him 1hr with the right right tool. It not cheap but it does the job I guess, http://www.dynomec.co.uk/ or if you wnat to save the dosh you could try what I ended up doing.

 

To get the other 3 off I took a steel rod just slightly bigger than the l/nut and welded it to the nut, (from inside the steel tube). Had a hole drilled in the other end of the tube for a breaker bar to then slacken the l/nut off. Ok once the nut is off it is buggered and welded to the tube, but I just cut it off and repeated the process on the remaining nuts.

 

good luck, H

Cheers for that H, Bit expensive as you say for the remover tool, but damn good idea with welding the nut to the tube from the inside:bow:!! I think that is my mission for the weekend!!

Sound`s quite easy to do

Nice one bud

Glad to help! :) worked a treat, and took less time than the poor RAC guy took to do just the one using that remover.

I've got that style off with pin nose pliers before, but I don't think mine were incredibly tight.

 

theres various 'locking nut remover tools' on ebay, that are threaded so basically, as you 'tighten' it onto the locker it digs in and loosens it. You taking the brakes off too daz?
