dinabryce Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Hi all, I drive a 93 subaru loyale wagon. The car was broken into recently (boo!) and the thief stole the metal lug wrench adapter out of the glove box. Any idea what the part is called or where I could find a replacement? It is a funny funny piece that I'd never heard of before this car. Thanks in advance! Bryce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lrgvanman Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Could be a locking lug nut. If stock wheels, likely it will be available at the dealer and if special wheels, try a major tire shop. They may either have a replacement or tool to remove what you have and replace with new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbchux Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 I don't recall there being any adapter in any of my cars, just a normal lug wrench. Take a picture of the lug nuts, maybe you have some aftermarket lugs.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
czny Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 (edited) These work well for locking lug nuts & damaged acorn lug nuts: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lug-Nut-Remover-Wheel-Lock-Removal-Kit-3pc-CTA-A157-/400314048540?epid=660342566&hash=item5d3493a01c:g:tnEAAOSwPe1UF7L- I've used them at local PNP when the vehicle prep guys miss a spot.
