Got my 1st impact wrench yesterday to help take off some frozen lug nuts on my 64 Fury. None had been off for years and no longer being a spring chicken trying to break them loose manually was a real struggle.

Removed the right front wheel nuts effortlessly. So I proceeded to the left front wheel. Yes I saw the little L in the middle of the studs but this is my first Mopar so it never dawned on me what it meant. Yep, kept trying to remove the nut turning the wrong way. ZIIIPPPPPP and nut is spinning but not coming off.

So, I either stipped the lug nut or stipped the stud right at the wheel. Hopefully the nut so I can save the drum.

I would appreciate any suggestions to get the nut off the stud. I figure I might have to buy another drum but don't want to loose the wheel as it is original to the car.

Thanks,

Butch
