My daily disco spare wheel cart has rusted off and the wheel fell off but I have a spare disco2 so I pulled the carrier off and found that it had a lock nut on it so I tried a chisel and no hope next step is to take it to my uncle and weld a pipe onto it and open it any ideas how to pull it off?

I bought a key not long ago from ebay. Mine was 'code C'.

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Land-Rov...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649

I was surprised to find the code stamped on the lock nut. It was a bit faint but was correct. Of course a month or so later the original turned up.

Take photo of the locknut clearly showing the slots/cutouts and try your local Landrover dealer
They should be able to match it.
Or can you get a grip with a pair of mole grips?

Any of the locknut keys will work if you file down one of the lugs...and use carefully!
