[quote name='89 Rag' date='Jun 1 2005, 11:18 PM']I realize it doesn't work on all wheels but sometimes a plumber's pipe wrench and a jack handle for extra leverage can break the locking lugnuts loose.

now there's a nice idea, and I say that becuase I actually have a pipe wrench, lol. I'll try that.

Whatever trick you use - a shot of "PB Blaster" often helps.

cool, I appreciate that. When I get off my lazy *** and try a few things to get it off, I'll let you know what happens.

If all else fails for the rotor removal use a dremel with a grinding bit on it and grind the head off, after the rotor is off you can usually just take off whats left off with pliers
