There’s nothing as stressful as blowing out a tire on the freeway or waking up to a flat when you’re running late. Being a tractor, RV or truck driver makes things worse because you then have to deal with massive wheels.
Loosening Tight Lug Nuts
Tight lug nuts can make it difficult to remove or change tires. You can end up spending a lot of time and cash, especially if you don’t have a tool as handy as the Cheater Wrench available.
Here are some common tricks you can try next time you find yourself with tightly-stuck lug nuts.
A breaker bar
Oftentimes, a regular lug wrench or tire iron alone isn’t enough to do the job. Slipping a breaker bar, cheater bar or a length or pipe over the end of the wrench can give you the additional leverage you need to get the lug nuts loose.
A mallet or hammer
If you don’t have access to a breaker bar or pipe, a few blows from a rubber mallet or hammer to the handle of the lug wrench might do the trick. Just take care to use short, controlled strikes instead of hard, glancing blows so you don’t warp the wrench.
Penetrating oil
Sometimes rust can be the culprit behind stuck lug nuts. If this is the case, PB Blaster or some other penetrating oil can get the nuts loose again. Apply the oil to the nut and stud threads, let it sit for a while then try using the lug wrench again.
An impact wrench
An impact gun or wrench can generate enough torque to remove tight lug nuts. However, it is possible to cause damage if you use the wrong size or type of impact wrench.
The Cheater Wrench Makes Things Easy
Let’s face it, not everyone has the arm strength required to wrestle tenacious lug nuts loose, even with a cheater bar. You might also not have an impact wrench or penetrating oil ready to whip out when needed. That is why the Cheater Wrench is such a genius tool for the job.
This is a torque multiplier lug wrench that makes it very easy to remove those stubborn nuts. Just attach the right socket to the target nut, connect the Cheater Wrench’s output shaft to the socket and use the handle to turn the input shaft by hand. Since it’s a torque multiplier, the Cheater Wrench is powerful enough to easily loosen the tightest nuts. You won’t even break a sweat using it.
