Cant Get Wheel Off SJ

Post by dan-wilks » Thu Mar 14, 2013 7:07 pm

Hi all got a problem with my flat tyre, have one wheel stud spinning with a nut stuck on it and the other wheel nut i put a smaller sized socket on it to get another rounded nut off it, now the socket is stuck as i snapped the bar inside of it! Can anyone help with ideas of getting the wheel off the sj?

If its not an alloy with recessed studs.

Otherwise drill it I suppose.
