That just makes me feel old :( - my first thought was that they need to learn to speak English - "bold lock nut" ????? me no understand.:rolleyes:

I don't understand "JFS" either, sorry OP :confused:;)

In terms of removing the nut, that's easy - my Irwin nut removers and impact driver would have that orft in short order:D

Going by the horrible American style wheel. I'm guessing that American is there first language. So not really English at all.
I also have a locking wheel nut remover that would have taken the "bold":confused: nut off in a few seconds.
It would have been cheaper to get a professional with the correct equipment to remove that nut. Those axe wounds will never polish out, so a new wheel will be required.:D

Very funny Htr:D

I had this land on my work PC a few years back. Only in America ah:p

I suspect they were using the axe to surgically remove the horrible pressed steel vanity cover from the locking wheel nut.

Cheers

I believe the alloy used in wheels is not that tough, so an axe could chip it away..... they could then get their teeth on the nut :)

Alloy wheels are heat treated castings. They are actually very hard to break, especially with an axe;)
Whoever was responsible for the axework, really doesn't have a clue tbh :confused:

Sigh - no it's not only in America, there just happens to be a lot of them who like to post cock-ups on FB... seeming for our amusement.

That mattress pic' reminds my of my elder brother. Years ago he used to work for NZ Railways as a fitter's mate at the Dunedin Loco' shed. He assisted in maintaining the loco's use on the Taieri Gorge Railway. That is a rural line - lots of sheep on the track ,and yes their remains got caught up in the 'works' under the loco.'s You can see why he doesn't like sheep now!:D
