HOW THE 30165 DUAL WHEEL LUG STUD REMOVER WORKS
The dual wheel stud remover is used to remove the 13/16” flanged square drive inner
cap nuts, which secure the inside dual wheels on truck and trailers. Frequently the
square head becomes stripped making it impossible to remove with sockets or
wrenches. To use the 30165 stud remover simply drive the stud remover over the 1-
1/8” threads of the inner cap nut with a soft-faced non-metal dead blow hammer.
(Always wear safety glasses when striking hardened steel). A series of heat-treated
self-tapping splines cut into the threads of the cap nut. Use a standard 1-½” socket or
wrench to unscrew the stripped inner cap nut. After removal, the stripped cap nut may
be forced out of the 30165 sockets with a punch or drift pin inserted through the hole in
the back of the socket.
The 30165 socket will eventually destroy its self-tapping splines and will need to be
replaced with a new 30165 socket.

Self-Tapping Splines 1-½” Drive
LIMITED WARRANTY
Although the best material and heat treating available is used to manufacture the
30165 socket, the manufacturer recognizes that after a few uses (4 to 10) the 30165
socket will destroy its self-tapping splines and must be replaced with a new
30165 socket. For this reason the manufacturer cannot replace damaged 30165
sockets under the normal terms of our limited warranty.
We suggest the user of 30165 sockets add the eventual replacement cost of the
30165 socket into the cost normally charged for removing stripped inner cap nuts.
