Topec 18-Piece Stripped Nut Remover, 3/8” Drive Impact Extractor Set, Damaged Bolt Nut Remover with Hex Adapter, Perfect Tool Kit for Removing Stripped, Damaged, Rounded off and Rusted Bolts & Nuts

I was able to solve this with this. My car is 15 years old but the front O2 sensor has stopped working. A piece of original equipment was not going to be tossed aside easily. In the end, I opted for the nuclear approach, after using the O2 sensor sockets that were designed for it and stripping the sensor. My hacksaw blade made a good handle for the hacksaw and I sawed the O2 sensor down so that the 7/8 socket could slide into place. As the O2 sensors are long, I had to shorten them so I could place the socket at the base, where it It's a two piece installation so I tapped it with a hammer to seat it, put my long extension behind the firewall and attached my 18" breaker bar, and tightened it with a crowbar. When it digs into the sensor, i hear that 'ting' sound. I was able to unscrew it with my hand once that happened. did not hesitate to dig into the mound He didn't want to let go of him. My second reaction was to laugh and shout, "I WON!". I love it! Considering I had tried every trick in the book to get the words.

It worked flawlessly on that lug nut I bought it for. I bought it to replace one stripped Chrysler lug nut, then keep on hand. Using a soft, 2 lb. impact driver, I put it on. The dead - A blow hammer was used to help break the nut free, then the breaker bar was used to make it easier. As far as removing the lug nut from the tool went, it was firmly embedded in the tool, and I was not able to budge it with my pin (I may have been able to if I had had a vise). As an alternative, I used the tool to reinstall the lug nut, causing the tool to release when the nut was slightly Once the notched part was removed, I used the tool gently to remove it I am grateful. Make sure the lug nut is tight My pin was able to remove it this time because I was able to use it. The cutting edge of the tool seems to have been retained after just one use, but given the low price I do not expect it to hold its edge through lots of It is a very good purchase, I am very happy with it. I would probably buy something like that from the Snap-on line if I were still a professional mechanic (I left over 30 years ago). This truck is on the road. With a price reduction of perhaps 10%, this is the perfect solution for my current needs.

I have a 2010 BMW 335xi. I found out this afternoon that the company who installed my new tires over torqued the lug nuts by 200 ft This past weekend I attempted to replace my brakes, brake calipers, and brake In the first attempt to remove the first two lugs, I ended up stripping and re-rounding them.
I went to my local Pep Boys to fix the car. The team helped me crack all the other lugs and then torqued them to the correct specifications, which made getting them back on no problem. In order to remove the original 2 lugs I stripped and rounded, I purchased this lug removal tool. Getting started on Saturday morning was the first thing I did. It was as expected that the 1st stripped lug came off readily. The use of these things is easy, there isn't a lot of rocket science involved. In spite of my best efforts, the second stripped/rounded lug was quite a challenge. Then I attach the breaker bar and apply pressure after getting a socket on the lug. What I thought was the socket slipping is actually the socket The 17mm lug removal tool I was using was broken in half when I went to adjust it. I broke the socket in half after using this product twice. There is no reason to purchase this set/manufacturer from this list. Is poorly made or is made of cheap materials. I have photos to submit but there is no way to add them to the * * * I took a 17mm 5 point! * * * * In the end, I ended up hammering a 16mm 12 point socket onto it and eventually managed to remove it. Purchase a quality repair instead of spending less money.
All lugs replaced.

Buy more and buy a better.

With the Topec 4 socket large set I bought via Amazon, I was able to remove the rounded lug nut right away. As part of an other project, I had to remove a 13mm nut whose head had completely rounded due to multiple efforts with multiple tools, so I bought the 18 piece set with smaller sizes of screws. In this case as well, the sockets enabled me to remove the damaged bolt very quickly. I wish this had been available The product is amazing!.

My Honda CRV had a striped bolt, so I used this to remove it. If the sockets I bought to remove stripped bolts strip themselves, that's going to be a lot to do. Among the things I am going to return is the T-shirts. I think it is a bit counterproductive, but there is no question that I am returning them. My next purchase will be.

A few of the lug nuts on my boat trailer seized due to saltwater exposure. The following code has been tried We have tried a 40, pb blaster, heated them, attached a pipe to the socket handle as a source of extra leverage, and hammered them with a steel hammer without In the end, I managed to remove all the seized nuts in the first attempt after heating the nuts with a heat gun. In fact, the extraction tool worked perfectly because the nuts were locked into the socket while being extracted. Two of the nuts had also been badly damaged, but these sockets worked on those too, with no problem. To attach the socket to the lug nut, I socked a steel hammer on it, and it didn't even leave a mark. They are excellent quality and are well worth the price, no matter how pricey they may be.

I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed, so I've lost the key on more than one occasion. I had to wait over a month to get an appointment with the dealer to replace the locks with regular lug nuts and pay $50 for the service. It only took me 15 minutes to have the locks removed with these. This is a fairly decent set of tools that will last for a while. We found the little tool included to be very helpful for knocking out the nuts from the sockets.

A great way to save money! After my wheel lock key "suddenly" disappeared, I was able to save hundreds with this kit. Getting the four socket kit for $25 was a great deal. The socket was put into place by tapping it with a 21mm socket and a 2lb sledge. It did take me a couple tries to get the socket to seat properly and have the teeth bite into the wheel lock properly enough to use a breaker bar to break the nut loose. Other jamokes have broken the socket from pounding it too hard and aggressively. It took only a few minutes to remove all 4 wheel locks and replace them with.
