Yeah well now the lug nuts are between sizes with out the shiny bits and are more prone to round off.

If the nuts take a 3/4 socket with the stainless caps on them, an 18mm socket fits when the caps are gone. If the nuts take a 13/16 socket with the caps still on.... Then you are kinda outa luck for proper socket.

At any rate, looks like new lugnuts are in order.

The 3/4" was very tight to go on but thats what i used to get em off.

1/2-20 is correct for a C10. 13/16 socket is correct (The 4wd versions had 7/16 thread and used a 3/4 socket)

The original lug nut was a steel nut with a stainless acorn decorative cap.
