I can't find mine. How do I get a new one. I'ved tried going to ford, but they won't do it.

 

It would help tofind out what brand lugs you have (difficult if possible).Some brands have different keys. I would start with discount tire, they always have keys laying around though

 

A local tire shop might have the key laying around as well... Big10tires or goodyear service centers..

 

the teeth broke off in mine and i looked for a long time for another but never found one. If you have to take them off and put regular lugs on i can tell you how to get them off.

 

Theres a manila colored folder that should be in your car with a phone number you have to call. The teeth broke on my key and thats what the ford dealership told me to do I couldn't find the folder anywhere. I took my car to the auto shop across the street from where I work and the guy took the 4 locking nuts off for 20 bucks thats the cheapest way to do it. Then just get 4 new lug nuts. He used this tool shaped like a socket hammered it on the lug nut and had all 4 off in less then 5 minutes.

 

goodyear does it but its like 75.00......and they mightdamage the rim in the process!!!!

 

alright well tomorrow I'll look for that number. I'm going to the place that put my fully built rear end in tomorrow to see if they have it because the probably do, but I'm just trying to get the options just in case.

 

get a gator grip maybe thatll work?

it takes a 20mm deep well socket. hammer the socket over the lock and turn the socket with a ratchet like normal and it will come right off. (you will need 4 sockets because you wont be able to get the lock out)

 

Actually you can get the locknut out of the socket.. You just have to be trixy about it.
