You can whack on a socket, one that will only fit if you whack it on ( :) )and you should be able to undo it.

ask a local wheel shop, they usually stock a multitude of lock nuts for people who forget the ones on their wheels. (for them to use, not to sell) but you may be able to borrow one / a few or drive your car in.

OUCH!!!

That was a bit harsh there Chickenman.

Don't worry Cozmo - He is just experiencing his midlife crisis at the moment.

And for some reason he wants to put everything in the microwave?!?!?

I shall give him his meds now

by the end of the day if nothing works from above, just use wheel brace as lever and brake it off with the stud, then replace the stud with new one ~10$...
