Car Forum / Porsche / Porsche Cars / May 2006broken wheel lock '87 944
an attempted theft of a rear wheel - somebody tried to force the rear wheel lock and broke it. so the center of the lock spins but will not open for removal. can anyone help? thanks, les This is How I did it at work in the 1980's: apply duct tape for protection on the wheel surface surrounding the lock. get a sharp LONG cold sharp chisel and a B F hammer to hit the top of the wheel lock cylinder rib. The idea is to knock off the top rib, whick keeps the lock cylinder in place. Once it is off then use your lug wrench to take the inner nut off the wheel. I suggest you buy a new lock set from auto zone. > an attempted theft of a rear wheel - somebody tried to force the rear > wheel lock and broke it. so the center of the lock spins but will not [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > > les |
