Security lug nut ID ?

[thesupercroc]

Has any one seen a lug nut like this?
I have them on the wheels of my CJ. I would like to get them so I can reuse them if at all possible.

How could you re use it without the key? BFH + socket

I had a set on my S10 p'up but I don't remember who made them. I do remember that they had a 2 or 3 digit number that you needed to get another key.

Well I found the key for them. It is super rusty!

I will try leaving it in vinegar for a couple of nights to see how that will and hopefully I will be able to reuse them.

that tipe of wheel lock is made by alot of Co. and theycome and go. if you want the same type on two auto your best thing is buy all the sets at the same time. if it is getting rusty clean up as much with out removing to much metal if it is to loose it will walk out and strip the key and lug nut.

Here are the before and after pics of the key for the lug nuts

Before way to rusty to even think of trying to use.


After soaking in apple cider vinegar for 24ish hours with a change of in that time.


Much better! I will take a small wire wheel to the top to get some more of the rust off the bolt part.
