Ronnie Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 Hello, yesterday I went for a ride and one of my wheel nuts came off so today i went to take off another and get it replaced but when i put the wrench to it it melted like butter and is now completely rounded off. I am limited on tools and have tried what i know and so far nothing works. Its driveing me crazy and i have no way to take my bike to the shop. What should I do? Do any of you guys know and tricks that i can try to get this last nut off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fappy'97 Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 Torch and a set of vise-grips should do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave5.0 Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 Get a crappy socket this is just a lil smaller but you can make it fit with a hammer. Get it on there with the hammer then hold the ratchet and extension very firmly and bust it loose. You may have to use a couple smaller sized sockets if the first one goes on too easy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightmare Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 Go find a snaggled toothed hooker, clamp her down real good on that nut and spin her real fast by her feet. Should work.<br /><br />Sent from my SGH-T679 using Tapatalk 2<br /><br /> 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckwheat Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 Get a firecracker, stick it in your butt, then light it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave5.0 Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 Get a firecracker, stick it in your butt, then light it. Seen that done. That works. Best method yet. Way to go Mom. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadbeat Posted May 29, 2013 Report Share Posted May 29, 2013 if none of these ideas work^ lol, hit it with wd40 and let it soak it for a while , then use a hammer and a sharp chisel to get it started then vice grips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BANSHEE CHAOS Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 Craftsman makes a sorta reverse ez-out for grabbing stripped nuts... I'd try a taiwany 13mm on an impact first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATV Galaxy Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 buy a new hub, wheel and tire.... I know a good place that will hook you up! 12pt. socket 1 size smaller and a 3lb hammer should do the trick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starwriter Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 Judging from the OP's previous post history, he's never coming back to this thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
