        RJ,

        Not being a jag, but I had to read your post 3 times to understand it. Puncuation helps make your problems easier for us to understand. Take an extra minute when your typing. It will only help us to help you.

        The lug hasn't snapped, you broke the Snap On 3/8" drive lug remover , right ?

        I dunno where to get a 1/2" drive lug remover, probably wherever you got the 3/8" drive.

        Since the lug is rounded/stripped, that seems to be your only option. Until you get the 1/2" drive Snap On lug remover, spray the lug at least once a day with some PB Blaster .

        When the time comes to try to remove the lug, aim a propane torch's flame at the lug , and let it cook for 20-40 minutes . Just set the torch on the ground , have a beer or three , then try taking it off. You really have to leave the torch on it for a long time, as there is a lot of metal to heat up.

        Just be careful with that torch , I don't wanna hear no horror stories. . .

        Good luck. Let us know what happens......................Blake

            Got another question while I'm working on the wheel bolts. My car only seems to leak while running which would suggest the Camshaft or Crankshaft seals, however, oil is all over my engine which puzzles me. I'm loosing about a quart a week. I've replaced both the HG (w/ new head) and VCG (both tightened to specs). Could the Cam or Crankshaft seals be throwing oil everywhere?
