Removing Wheel Locks...
#1
No im not jacking rims...

so i came out this morning and i got a flat, so i got put on my spare, and realize that there are wheel lock nuts on the front, and i dont have the key!!!!!!

how do i get them off, i know if you got a torch you can cut em off, but i dont have one...

my next best guess was vice grips, but i dont know if i can get enough leverage on it to loosen it.

Anybody know what works?

I don't know if they have a princess auto where you are ... but they sell a wheel lock nut removing socket .. or you can go to the dealer and they can do it for you.

Its just a socket with bunch of sharp teeth on it that you hammer onto the lock then you can spin it off like normal

princess auto sells them, gets off most lugnuts that need a key.

remember kids, locks only keep honest people out.

If you go to the Ford dealer and tell them you want them off they (well my dealer) doesn't charge usually, then you can buy new ones or just put plain nuts on. The dealer has a large universal kit.

I know having a flat won't help your problem having to get the wheel off not being able to drive somewhere
