I've got three of my four wheels changed, but all four lug bolts on the last wheel are just plain stuck. I've been spraying them with liquid wrench for the last 2 weeks. I've tried easing them off using an 18" breaker bar, extending it with a 30" galvanized pipe. None of them will budge.
Can I force them off with the breaker bar, or will I snap the heads off? Should I apply heat? Help. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) |

bigger pipe, impact wrench... or your tire shop.
