Where is the locking lug nut key?

[david.scacchi]

Hey guys, I have an 04 TJ and I’m trying to get my locking lug nut off, and I can’t find the key for the stock lugs. Do you guys know where they would be? And if I don’t have the key where could I get one?

That's strictly aftermarket, no telling where your key is. Any tire store and most 4x4 shops that sell wheels can get locking lug nuts off. They're used to people losing their keys.

Get rid of the locking lug nuts---if you need it and can't find the key when out on the trail you will be in deep trouble

If not:

Yeah I think that’s what I’m gonna be doing hahaha

My step-son broke his key on a Grand Cherokee. The tire shop recommended going to a dealer...most have a complete set of keys, or trashing a 12 point socket by pounding it on, or using stripped nut removal socket which is designed to go over a nut. He ended up spending $20 at a tire shop to remove all (4) of his and replace them with standard lug nuts.
