This guy knows what he is talking about. His fix worked perfectly on my 2016 ford F150 platinum. Thank you for this video. I hate these ford 2 piece lug nuts. What a joke they are. Ford should be embarrassed to put these lame parts on their vehicles. Replacing mine immediately with the normal 1 piece design. Thanks again for this video.
You’re welcome! Thanks for taking the time to comment. Glad this video helped! And I couldn’t agree more on the 2-piece design. Complete design failure.
You’re a lifesaver. I wasn’t looking forward to peeling those suckers off by hand while they were still on the vehicle. I picked up a 29mm Milwaukee hole dozer with arbor for $14 from Hime Depot. Removed the pilot bit and removed the first cap in 30 seconds.
I had one of the bolt covers slip while trying to remove. Tried different size sockets but nothing fit. Had all these visions of all day trying screw drivers, chisels, drills, hammers ETC. 5min with a hole saw and done deal. Man, you were a life saver! Thanks, simple and easy and it worked.
Heck yeah, glad this helped! Hole saw to the rescue 😂😂😂. They should include these bits in the spare tire kit from the factory 😂. Thanks for commenting!
Great idea, and it works cause I used to have 16 stuck lug nuts and now I have 24 new beefier ones. Thank you brother and may Ford take a lesson and charge the customer an extra $40 if need be for better quality nuts.
Awesome video! after cursing and peeling for a long time I hit up youtube and found this. It's so simple that I feel really stupid for not thinking of it myself. Thanks again for the quick fix and giving me some humility! I am not as smart as I thought I was Lol.
Brother, I went to Harbor freight and bought the hole saw bit and it was very HELPFUL. I did the rear tires with a hammer and flathead screwdriver and pliers and it was an annoying, frustrating pain in the butt. Saw your video and went for it and I did both front tires in less than 20 mins. Thank you for this hack. Awesome Job
Genius, the hole saw works perfect. I took off all 8 out shells on one wheel in about 2 minutes. I suggest you replace all the lug nuts now before you have a flat on the side of the road. Its so much easier to remove and replace them in your driveway that it is on the side of the road. I replaced them on my F-350 today. I bought Gorilla lug nuts to replace them with. $160 for all 32. Depending on your vehicle you can also look at McGard and Dorman for new lug nuts. Just make sure you don't reuse the ones with the cladding on them. Just remember that the pilot bit in the middle has to be pulled back so that none of it protrudes inside the hole saw. Thank you. THANK YOU!
Hello. Awesome, I’m glad this video helped! Yes, the cladding Lugnuts are just about the worst design for any individual that has to deal with weather. Then again, not even just the weather, but rotating the tires will eventually bloat and strip these, and they’ll have to be replaced at some point. perhaps planned obsolescence by the manufacturer? Hoping that we will reuse their terribly designed Lugnuts. Good suggestions on alternatives! Thanks for such good advice I appreciate it!
UPDATE: We tried using a 1 inch Milwaukee Hole Dozer Bi-Metal hole saw (Milwaukee Model # 49-56-9662, Home Depot Internet # 202327732) instead of the 1-1/8 inch and the caps came off in under 30 seconds per tire. Just did another Ford and the whole operation took about 10 minutes for all four tires. I am carrying this in my emergency kit in case I ever come across a stranded Ford owner! Also, used an 18mm socket to remove the underlying steel lug nut and 19mm to put the new lug nuts on (@100 ft/lbs) Wow, this worked B-E-A-UTIFUALLY. I tried other techniques on my 2017 Ford Escape and they were tons of work for poor results. I replaced 16 lug nuts in less than an hour (the other four took me close to an hour with the other techniques and scratched the rims a little and destroyed a socket. Thank you Mr. Fast Fix!
You are quite welcome!! Haha, I also keep a bit in my road kit to help others should I come by a stranded motorist! Thanks for commenting, I love hearing success stories! 👍👍👍
You just saved me. I went to take off the driver's side wheel for the first time on my new to me 2015 F150 and one of the nuts just kept spinning. Before I saw anything online I was thinking that he head part was spinning and not the rest. Sure enough that was the case. I saw where some others use a chisel but this seemed much easier and it was. I just had to take a trip to Lowes since my Harbor Freight hole saw was demolished by the lugnut and barely left a scratch
I used to chisel them off. Took about 20 minutes per nut. I was doing brakes on Focus with literally all 10 front lug nuts having the issue. What would have taken me probably 3 hours took me 5 minutes. I don't normally give praise to youtubers but I owe you one. Ironically, I had a set of hole saws already but of course, the size I needed, I had to go buy. ha.
Hello. Hey I am happy to be one of a few! Yes, this is so much faster than chiseling things away. I’m glad this helped you save some time and effort! Sorry I’m late in replying to your comment but thank you! Have a fantastic day.
Dude, you honestly saved me so much time. My magnums lugs were like this, and the buldge was so bad that i couldnt just chisel and break them, i had to like flower the whole cover enough to get the right socket on. This way is seriously miles better. Chrysler, ford, and anyone else that made these lugs... not cool
Completely agree! I have no idea how these lugs passed quality control. I’m sure this happens to everyone eventually. Even without freezing temperatures, simply removing the lugs causes damage to the cap and they loose their edge. Thanks for the comment and I’m glad this helped!
@FastFixCZcams lol you mean like how chevy and dodge don't put oil in the transmission on the inspection line? Calling CEO saying IDGAF ship it out without any oil and no dipstick neither 😂🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
My daughter went to the dealer for tires. Car 4 years old. Lug nuts swollen. Quote, $400 just to remove the lug nuts. She left. Daddy will try his luck. Thanks for making this video. Bye the way my car is 2 years old and I think I will replace my lugs now while there's still time.
$400?! Yikes…that’s crazy. You can definitely get this done on your own for the cost of a hole-saw bit. And if in your shoes, I’d replace the lugs on your car as well. These are ticking time bombs. Thanks for the comment and best of luck!
I'm new to the Ford lifestyle and thought it's some sort of anti over-torquing mechanism built into the lug nuts. Thanks to this vid, I'm not aware it's just another Ford screw up.1 1/8" hole saw it is.
Just use a small lug nut socket pound it in then use a breaker bar , go up n down until the cap is startin to strip then take socket off then start strippin the cap with snips then it will come off
This was a great solution. I echo the comments of those not wanting to peel & chisel off those suckers. I attempted to do that before finding this video and it was a nightmare. This solved the problem perfectly. Thanks for posting. BTW; any idea if these aluminum caps are actually needed or can we just use the steel lugs as they are without the caps? (Other than for aesthetics).
I'm not going to ask the same question that people got crap for asking, I'll just state that my hole saw absolutely can not be used without attaching it to the connector that has a drill bit built in. I can't go buy a different one until i get my wheel off
As someone who does road side assistance and has encountered this situation more than once this is absolutely genius. More than once ive had to take a flat head screw driver and hammer it through the middle of the cap and then hammer the sides of the caps off just enough to be able to get the lugs off. Usually takes around 60 mins per tire. Such a pain in the ass I usually tell em I cant do it if they are rude etc. Regardless I always explain about ford/chryslers stupid lug nut cap design and tell them to get REAL lug nuts put on asap!! I will be purchasing one of these metal bit sets and using them from now on if need be. Ive changed thousands of tires and these are the absolute WORST. Literally to save ford pennies per wheel and make them $$$$$ vs the consumers safety (changing a flat on the highway with these on their wheel!)
Couldn’t agree more! Cheap crap that WILL fail. Glad this will save you time in the future! Just don’t go adding up all the hours you spent with a screw driver and hammer 😂👍👍👍. Have a good one and thanks for the comment!

Hello. To be honest with you I don’t remember, but I thought I included the size in the video. Check the description and see if the size is there. However, if you have a complete socket set, you’ll definitely have the right size to fit the exposed nut. Hope this helps and best of luck!
I had to make a trip out of town today and got a flat when I was like a hour away. So I grabbed the tire tool that's with the spare annnddd it doesn't even fit the lugs. But I keep some extra tools in my car so I found the socket that fit the best. Go to turn it and slip. Try another one...slip. immediately Rounded 2 off and barley even put any pressure. Wound up having to get it towed all the way home because some brilliant engineer chose to use these cheap, brittle, plastic material covered lug nuts on their vehicles. And include a tire tool that doesn't even fit them. Man that was SOOO fucking aggravating
I couldn't unscrew my Ford Fusion to replace the flat tires with the spare tire on road for a few times. I had to call the roadside services. Shame on Ford! How much does Ford save for using the poor quality lug nuts? Never buy Ford cars again!
Hello. Yes these cheap Lugnuts are ridiculous and shame on any manufacturer for using low quality parts On something that needs to be serviced so often like the wheels! I’m sure they saved a few bucks and got away with it Scott free…. Thanks for commenting! Couldn’t agree more.

@mueller bro i just had a Ford Escape tire removal for Road Side Assistance the chrome lug caps were so rounded wouldn't come off tried tapping all different sockets into it and nothing, have 19.5 18.5 etc shit sucked lucky the tire held air but damn. P.s. i had a ford focus once and you are correct the 19.5 took it off soooo easy but this escape had the caps spinning even by hand
So you replace your oem lug nut with some random cheapo ebay one?? Your wheel will probably fly off one day with those cheap lug nuts snapping... Always buy tested brand.... Not some random ebay one that you can't even tell if it a single piece or capped because of poor machining... 🤦♂️
I have zero worries the lug nuts will break and fly off. The price was comparable with prices at the auto parts store. I read through reviews and all were good. And they are not capped. It was tricky to tell, but after further inspection and from directly comparing to a called lug, these are indeed solid as can be. Thanks for the comment 👍

What did you use to attach the whole saw to the drill tho? That's what I don't get, what's it called?
Called a hole saw bit or similar. Ask a parts person or store clerk. They’ll know where to send you 👍
I used a hammer and chisel for my one wheel gonna do this for the rest. 2014 buick lacrosse caps are spinning on the nut.
Good luck!

Followed your steps thank you! But what size socket do you then need for the newly exposed nut?
I did this for my 2012 F150. I went to Harbor Freight with a lug nut and a 13/16 was the best fit. Bought a deep impact socket that works perfectly.
Hello. To be honest with you I don’t remember, but I thought I included the size in the video. Check the description and see if the size is there. However, if you have a complete socket set, you’ll definitely have the right size to fit the exposed nut. Hope this helps and best of luck!
Fantastic! 🎸😄
Many thanks!!
Thanks for the how-to! Can I just use the lug nut without the chrome cap? Or do you recommend replacing them with the 1 piece?
Absolutely replace with the 1-piece design. Otherwise, you’ll have to do this fix all over again. Best of luck!
You can use the lug nut after you remove the cladding on the outside. It won't be pretty but it will work.
so if you get a puncher is this what you would have to do to change your wheel at the side of the road ? crazy !
Exactly! Should be recalled as this would certainly strand you on the side of the road.
