Help! - Mangled Locking Wheel Nut. Any Tips?

[stuzbot]

Not sure if the extractor would chew into Toyota locking wheel nuts. They may well be hardened....

That might be a moot point though [in this case anyway]. As, if the wheel nuts were hardened, I wouldn't have so easily mashed up the head of that one, in the first place.

Last night I dug out the test Project Farm did a while back and, as I remembered it, pretty much all the locking wheel nuts he tested --with one expensive exception--- were pretty easily defeated. I really don't see the point of them, unless you live in a real high-crime neighbourhood, populated entirely by deaf people.

PS: Raining all through the night here and still lashing it down. So no Lower Ball Joint action for me today again!
