I have a question for all that are willing to help

How can i get rusted on jug nuts off with out any air tools cause i don't have any and i don't have any friends that do either. I have used special sockets and sprays, putting bars on the socket wrench to get more leavage and all i did was break extentions PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!!

i would drive it to a tire shop i did that once

Your an asshole i didn't ask for sarcasm i asked for advice so unless you got advice shut the **** up

actually, i think he was serious. i had to do it once also on a lug i couldn't get off. i just asked the guy at the shop if he would break it loose for me with his air gun. he said, it might come off or it might break the stud - i said either way do it. he did, it came off. he did it for no charge, and i tipped him a dollar for coffee.

another idea - use a plumbers torch to put some heat into the lug nut and it will expand a tad.

another - use as beefy a socket as you can find, as few extensions, and a pipe, and an assistant. position the pipe/socket so that its on the lug, with the end of the pipe on the ground. drive the truck forward (drivers side) or backward (passenger) a few inches and see if it will break loose. might also break the stud. might also break a cheap socket or extension - protect yourself.

i would still just go down to the tire shop like he said. its easier on you and well ****, its just cheap. i take my 84 down to big o tires for **** that i dont have time for. we should have almost the same truck. only mines already a 4x4 and i have all the mods you want already.except two kicker L7 12's in a bandpass with power cap and all. such a temper.[:@]

Thank you and i have tried the sockets with the razors inside that really grip the bolt and a pole for leavrage but all i did was break off the extenstion and all the places in my town want to charge me like 50 bucks to take those three bolts off other wise i would have use air tools already

Some one told me that the owner before me could have put lock tight on the bolts are people really dumb enough to do that?

Ya some people are that dumb. I would suggest if you want to do it your self go to a tool shop and buy a impact socket that will fit it and get the heavyst braker bar that they have. Or go to sears or better buy snap on so if you brake it they will replace it free no questions. Ya it cost money but when you dont want to take it to a shop everytime the money is worth it for good tools.

Thank you guys for your help. I'm really thankful and please keep them coming

You can rent an electric impact wrench. You may need new studs also if they are damaged.

this might sound stupid but are you sure some one has not replaced the studs with left hand thread one just a thought?

I'd try a four way with someone holding it on then use your foot to turn it. Kind of jump on it. It may break your stud but I have only had that happen once in over 30 years of driving and changing tires. If it is that rusted on you may need to naval jelly it a couple of times too.

did you get them off yet?

If you ever have them put on at shop, insist that they put the nuts on by hand. othersise you get screwed if you have to change them on the roadside.

In addition to the take it to a shop idea, most roadside assistance trucks use electric impact wrenches too. So if you have AAA Let the air out of the tire, give them a shout and let them take it off.

A plumbers torch will work, just make sure you concentrate on the nut and not the stud. then use the six sided impact socket, breaker bar and pipe. 4ways and ratchets break far too easily. Ive had really good luck with a couple of applications of PB Blaster both on the stud and where the nut meets the rim and the above breaker bar and pipe.

dhvaughan got his directions backwards, you want to go in reverse for the drivers side and forward for the passenger side to loosen. Tighteing slightly before loosening may help break it loose if they are steel rims. Al Rims are much more of a pain.

When you put it back on, put a thin layer of bearing grease on the hub and on the studs, it will save you lots of work when you take them off next time.
