Locking wheel nut key, 3 pin type - strictly_perv - 07-12-2013

I'm in need of a 3 pin key to remove the nut on the sedans wheels before it gets scrapped if anyone has one?

12mm six-sided socket and it should come off. That's how I managed one before, had to jack it up though to take the pressure off the nut.

These nuts have a spinning case to prevent that though Sad

Ah I must be thinking of a different type then.

The keys/nuts are all different, that's the whole point lol. Getting the three-pin key from someone elses almost certainly won't be able to undo yours.

You could weld something onto the end of it and use that to wind it out. Or drill it out, it's not like you need to worry about the condition of the hub afterwards lol.
